Wow. This is great. Best way to quickly spin-up and use a network lab

Amazing stuff. Great work.

[@TechnicalChaupal]

this is awesome and eye opener towards lab as a code, I am able to successfully spin up codespace lab with help of your video, I have couple of questions here actually. 1) how can bring our own topology mean .yml file and spin of up lab here. 2) we know the images which you mentioned are free and easy to download for docker, how about Arista Ceos, or Cisco images which need access and need to installed image on docker. how can we deal with that. 3) Is the Grefana Static here? i mean topology tab and other ? or is it using same source of data which can we edit based on our need and let it show our topology.

Great work, thank you for this. Is there any way to make use of Edgeshark, or do the containers need to be on the local host to be able to launch wireshark? I guess port mirror would be needed.

[@RomanDodin]

thanks! edgeshark installation doesn't differ at all. Install it with the single "docker compose up" and you will see port 5001 available in your list of ports to open up a web ui

@@RomanDodin whoa! this actually works out of the box with all the port forwarding?! Does the capture also go through the local port forwarding?
