## Getting Started With Network Infrastructure Automation
The [Network Infrastructure Automation (NIA)](https://learn.hashicorp.com/collections/consul/network-infrastructure-automation?utm_source=WEBSITE&utm_medium=WEB_IO&utm_offer=ARTICLE_PAGE&utm_content=DOCS)
collection contains examples on how to configure Consul-Terraform-Sync to
perform Network Infrastructure Automation. The collection contains also a
tutorial to secure your Consul-Terraform-Sync configuration for a production
environment and one to help you build you own Consul-Terraform-Sync compatible
module.

## Other Run modes
Consul-Terraform-Sync allows you to inspect your configuration before applying
any change and to run in once mode, meaning that you can verify the changes are
correctly applied in a test run before running it in unsupervised daemon mode.
To learn more on these options check the
[Consul-Terraform-Sync Run Modes and Status Inspection](https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/consul/consul-terraform-sync-run-and-inspect?utm_source=WEBSITE&utm_medium=WEB_IO&utm_offer=ARTICLE_PAGE&utm_content=DOCS) tutorial.

Network Infrastructure Automation (NIA) enables dynamic updates to network infrastructure devices triggered by service changes using the [Consul Terraform Sync](https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-terraform-sync) (`consul-terraform-sync`) daemon. This daemon uses Consul's catalog to monitor networking information about services along with [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/)'s provider ecosystem to apply relevant changes to network infrastructure.
