multivendor-ai-network-lab: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

multivendor-ai-network-lab CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from gesh75/multivendor-ai-network-lab. It costs 1,901 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a lab that simulates data-center networks from several vendors and includes an AI tool for collecting and analysing network state.

In plain words
What is it for?
They help with the Containerlab EVPN-VXLAN fabric, the Docker Compose multi-region backbone, vendor drivers, telemetry, dashboards, and the operations portal.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the project’s structure, terminology, technologies, and operating rules so changes fit the existing labs and tools.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

multivendor-ai-network-lab CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Multivendor AI Network Lab — Project Context

Repo: multivendor-ai-network-lab (github.com/gesh75/multivendor-ai-network-lab, remote mv) Purpose: Multi-vendor data-center network labs + an AI Network Tool that collects state across vendors via a driver abstraction layer and analyzes it. Stack: containerlab + docker-compose, Nokia SRL / Arista cEOS / FRR, Python (drivers, telemetry), InfluxDB + Grafana, static HTML ops portal.

Naming: this is the AI Network Tool. "DCN Network Tool" was the earlier Acronis-era tool — the directory name DCN_Network_Tool is legacy and kept only for path stability.


Two Labs

CLOS EVPN-VXLAN Fabric (containerlab)

  • Topology: containerlab-multivendor/topologies/clos-evpn.clab.yml
  • 3 spines + 6 leafs + 6 hosts. Vendors: spine1/leaf2/leaf5 = Nokia SRL, spine2/leaf1/leaf4 = Arista cEOS, spine3/leaf3/leaf6 = FRR.
  • eBGP underlay (per-leaf AS 65001–65006, spines AS 65100) + eBGP EVPN overlay (multihop loopback peering, spines as route-reflector-clients/transit).
  • ESI-LAG dual-homed hosts (anycast MAC 00:00:5E:00:53:01), symmetric IRB anycast gateway (L3 VNI 50001, TENANT-A VRF), IPv6 dual-stack (fd00:dc1::/48).
  • Configs: containerlab-multivendor/configs/{spine,leaf}/. SRL nodes need a post-deploy push: containerlab-multivendor/scripts/post-deploy-srl.sh [wait-seconds].
  • Bring-up: containerlab-multivendor/scripts/{setup,deploy,destroy}.sh. Linux uses native containerlab (sudo-aware). macOS Docker Desktop uses ghcr.io/srl-labs/clab with --pid host (scripts/clab-common.sh).
  • cEOS eAPI is baked into leaf1 / leaf4 / spine2 startup-configs for NAPALM (management api http-commands, HTTPS:443). Do not docker restart a node to enable it — redeploy with --reconfigure.

DCN Multi-Region Backbone (docker-compose)

  • Compose: network-lab/docker-compose.yml. 10 FRR routers (5 core + edge/dist), multi-region eBGP, mgmt 10.200.0.0/24. Real device names (de-fra-core-01, uk-lon-core-01, nl-ams-core-01, us-nyc-core-01, …) — NOT clab-prefixed.
  • Configs: network-lab/configs/<device>/frr.conf.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
