TL&DR: netlab launch 25.06 was printed final week.
Earlier than discussing the brand new options, let’s stroll the elephant out of the room: I modified the discharge variations to YY.MM scheme, so I’ll by no means once more should waste my time on the existential query of which quantity within the launch specification to extend.
Now for the brand new options:
I hope you’ll discover these options helpful, but additionally that no less than somebody will profit from the time I spent fixing the traditional ruins of Nokia SR-OS configuration templates. That is how the combination take a look at report for Nokia SR-OS regarded on Might twenty fifth:
And that is the results of testing the configuration templates from launch 25.06 after fixing “a couple of” bugs:
Whereas fixing outdated stuff, I additionally added a few options to the SR-OS configuration templates:
- Static ingress replication for VXLAN
- EVPN transit VNI inside VPRN service (earlier implementation created a separate VPLS service for the transit VNI)
- Propagation of MPLS/VPN and EVPN routes to CE-routers
- VRF-aware EBGP multihop, IS-IS, OSPFv3
- Inter-VRF route leaking in MPLS/VPN deployments (subsequent step: I’ve to determine how to try this on a standalone machine)
- Route import into BGP, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, and IS-IS
Miguel Redondo Ferrero (through Roman Dodin) helped me work out the intricacies of EVPN transit VNI configuration and the export of EVPN routes into PE-CE routing protocols. Thanks one million!
I have to admit that I sort of preferred working with SR-OS. Aside from a couple of conceptual quirks, it’s fairly quick, fairly neat, and simple to work with (as soon as you determine configuration modifications received’t be utilized till you do a commit). If solely there have been a simple technique to get the VM picture…
