Скачать или смотреть Networking labs on ARM

Oops, we did it again 🤗

Three years ago, we shook up the networking space with the release of a freely available SR Linux container image. This was a catalyst for many great community projects, such as Containerlab, gNMIc, and many others.

Today, we are announcing the availability of an ARM64 version* of the SR Linux container image 🎉

Free, public, ARM64 native.
- preview version (starting from SR Linux 24.10.1 uses the same image tag as x86_64)

With ARM64 version of our container image, you can finally make your expensive typing machines with a fruit logo to do some actual work by running a networking lab.

There are so many things to I wanted to explain and show you, so I went and recorded a 40 minutes deep dive on the topics of
Who can be interested in running labs on ARM64 arch?
What challenges are ahead of us when ARM64 is the target architecture?
What Network OSes can you run on it?
How docker runs on macOS?
What tools would I recommend using?
And how I run containerlabs on macOS.

If you are in or adjacent to networking, this might be quite an entertaining show and hopefully this would make netorking labs even more accessible to the community 🚀
