Online BGP Labs Drops Cumulus Linux Support
4.0
The Online BGP Labs project, started in mid-2023, is dropping Cumulus Linux containers and marking Cumulus VMs end-of-life after stability and access issues. The maintainer says FRRouting containers and Arista cEOS are now preferred alternatives, and they used AI assistance to clean up and update more than 50 lab exercises. The changes aim to provide stable, industry-standard CLIs for educators and practitioners.
Key Points
- 1Remove Cumulus Linux containers and deprecate VMs across 50+ lab exercises
- 2Replace with FRRouting and Arista cEOS due to stability, community support, and CLI compatibility
- 3Enable educators and practitioners to use stable, industry-standard CLIs and updated lab exercises
Scoring Rationale
Project-level migration with practical lab cleanup but limited scope and single-source update reduces broader impact.
