Opensource catalog of containerlab based labs.

The purpose of this catalog is to aggregate various labs built with containerlab project as well as to provide a platform for community members to share their labs and explain various use cases.

Categories#

A few high-level categories were created to coarsely sort the lab submissions. At this moment the categories are:

  • Routing & Switching
  • Telemetry
  • Automation
  • Security

The reason for having a small number of very broad categories is to have a high-level structure in place. This categories are not meant to be the means for searching the specific lab or technology, but rather to provide a way to browse the labs sorted with these categories.

We encourage visitors to use site search when looking for a specific lab/protocol/technology stack. The search is powerful and will yield better results.

Contributions#

We believe in the community effort and encourage you to consider contributing your lab to this opensource and unaffiliated catalog.

If you built a lab and you want to have a platform that offers a beautiful front end for your use case explanation consider raising a Pull Request with your submission.

You can choose whether you want to host your clab files in this repo' labs directory, or in your own repository - both options are fine.

Additionally, you might want to consider explaining the use cases for which you built a lab by adding a documentation article that goes along with a lab - like this CMP lab here.

Or you can keep the explanation of the use case in your own repo/blog and just add a reference to it, as we did with this BGP VPLS lab.
