| Description | Two Nokia SR Linux nodes |
| Components | Nokia SR Linux |
| Resource requirements1 | 2 2 GB |

| Validated versions2 | containerlab v0.26.2,srlinux:21.11.3 |
Description#
A lab consists of two SR Linux nodes connected via a point-to-point link over e1-1 interfaces. Both nodes are also connected with their management interfaces to the clab docker network.
Configuration#
The nodes of this lab have been provided with a startup configuration using startup-config directive. The startup configuration adds loopback and interfaces addressing as per the diagram above.
Once the lab is started, the nodes will be able to ping each other via configured interfaces:
--{ running }--[ ]--
A:srl1# ping network-instance default 192.168.0.1
Using network instance default

Use cases#
This lab, besides having the same objectives as srl01 lab, also enables the following scenarios:
- get to know protocols and services configuration
- verify basic control plane and data plane operations
- explore SR Linux state datastore for the paths which reflect control plane operation metrics or dataplane counters
