Hi Fairouz,
in general Puppet can manage everything which has an IP address.
Well, mostly everything:
1. Puppet agent requires ruby with openssl support being available for the
device.
Besides this: Puppet needs facter (a c++ application)
Ruby version depends on Puppet version. At the moment Puppet 4.10 uses Ruby
2.1.9.
2. Puppet needs to know how to run commands on the device.
In Puppet we call this the “provider”. A provider is ruby code that has the
logic on how to add, remove or change a resource (like user, group, file,…)
Wether you can directly use Puppet on a device depends on the underlying OS. If
this is based on a standard Linux distribution possibility is high that one can
make Puppet work on that device. Adoptions to Puppet and Facter code might be
required.
Best,
Martin
