The Ansible inventory created by netlab create command contains enough information to configure interfaces and OSPF routing process.

Please follow the instructions in Installing Ansible documentation 1, or use netlab install ansible on Ubuntu. You'll need a working Ansible installation for the rest of this tutorial. => r1: Running 'pre-boot' VM customizations. => r1: Preparing network interfaces based on configuration. => r1: Clearing any previously set network interfaces.

=> r1: Matching MAC address for NAT networking. Creating Configuration FilesĬreate Vagrantfile, hosts.yml (Ansible inventory file) and ansible.cfg (Ansible configuration file) with netlab create command:īringing machine 'r1' up with 'virtualbox' provider.īringing machine 'r2' up with 'virtualbox' provider. To execute individual steps in this process, follow the rest of this section, otherwise skip to connecting to network devices.

Configures the devices with netlab initial command.

Starts the devices with vagrant up or containerlab deploy command.

Creates Vagrantfile or clab.yml, and Ansible inventory files.

The easiest way to start the lab is to execute netlab up command which:

If you prefer using Cumulus VX, replace device: eos with device: cumulus.

Replace provider: virtualbox with provider: clab if you're running Arista cEOS container with containerlab.

Has three links - a stub network connected to r1, another stub network connected to r2, and a link between r1 and r2.

The networking lab specified in the above topology file: In an empty directory create the lab topology file topology.yml.

If you're using containerlab, download and install cEOS image. box file with vagrant box add vEOS-lab-4.21.14M-virtualbox.box -name arista/veos The most recent vEOS version accessible in that format at the time this document was last updated was vEOS-lab-4.24.8M-virtualbox.box. Alternatively, you could use Cumulus VX, but it's a bit harder to work with unless you're used to working with Linux-based network devices using FRR. We'll use Arista EOS image available for download on Arista's web site (login required).
