Cumulus Linux (docker runtime) and Host

Description Cumulus Linux in Docker runtime connected to a Host
Components Cumulus Linux
Resource requirements[^1] 1
1 GB
Topology file topo.clab.yml
Name cvx02
Version information[^2] cvx:4.3.0 docker-ce:19.03.13

Description#

The lab consists of Cumulus Linux running in its non-default, docker runtime, connected to a linux container playing the role of an end-host. Both nodes are also connected to the clab docker network over their management eth0 interfaces.

Configuration#

Both nodes have been provided with a startup configuration and should come up with all their interfaces fully configured.

Once the lab is started, the nodes will be able to ping each other:

Use cases#

  • Demonstrate how a cvx node can run in its non-default docker runtime
  • Demonstrate how to inject startup configuration into a cvx node.
  • Verify basic control plane and data plane operations
