Consider the following use cases for license provisioning:

1. If a user specifies a model that does not require a license then the tag of their image should not matter

2. If a user specifies a model that does require a license and the user has provided a single "catch all" license then the tag of their image should not matter

3. If a user specifies a model that does require a license and the user has not provided a license or has provided a license that matches a specific version other than the one they provided then the failure should clearly output during topology creation

4. treat ga tag the same as latest

Currently startup-config can only be provided as a full configuration extracted from a running system in a json format (from /etc/opt/srlinux/config.json).

Even the factory config of SR Linux counts thousands of lines, since security and ACL policies are provided in full for v4/v6 protocols. Using those bulky files as startup is not always easy as it is not evident what was added to the startup config by the user and what comes from default settings.

We have to add a more flexible solution where startup configs can be provided in the two additional formats.

CLI

As either a list of full-context set / ... commands or a regular CLI blob.
Such file needs to be read by srl-controller and executed via scrapligo, or copied over to the srlinux node and executed as sr_cli <commands>

Partial JSON

A trimmed down version of the config.json where only parts that a user adds are present. Such config can be loaded via sr_cli load file <path> merge

Considerations

Before implementing any of those additions, we need to make sure that srl-controller also waits for Srl nodes to boot

Hi Roman,

I am not sure if this is the right platform to address my query. If not please guide me to correct platform.
I am having trouble using SSH to SRL. I am deploying SRL in KNE environment along with Ixia-c.
I am able to bring it up and things are working fine. I need to enable ssh and fetch BGP/ISIS route details from srl.

I followed the below document to enable SSH. The ssh server is up and running but is not accepting any connections.
https://documentation.nokia.com/srlinux/SR_Linux_HTML_R21-11/Configuration_Basics_Guide/configb-systmmgmt.html

i also tried below commands, I am not sure what should be my source address.
--{ candidate shared default }--[ ]--

info system ssh-server

system {
    ssh-server {
        network-instance mgmt {
            admin-state enable
            source-address [
                1.1.1.1
                1.1.1.2
            ]
        }
        network-instance default {
            admin-state enable
            source-address [
                2.1.1.1
                2.1.1.2
            ]
        }
    }
}

Can you please help me with this ?

Thanks,
Azhar

Hi,

The go.sum for the @v.0.2.0 that proxy.golang.org has is

github.com/srl-labs/srl-controller v0.2.0 h1:hw+6SU+hIDFgr0xsfIjw04BdZCJHzdVyEw9EIQESVOA=
github.com/srl-labs/srl-controller v0.2.0/go.mod h1:DkPfolSny8QSlMcA8vjpyNMP/+Dttqtk9ZTk4OnBP2E=

However, the go.sum for what github provides is

github.com/srl-labs/srl-controller v0.2.0 h1:NFM5I+Xx+0zkVC9WTnXtg6uk0frtLbHU0EQVlJ8OvIA=
github.com/srl-labs/srl-controller v0.2.0/go.mod h1:DkPfolSny8QSlMcA8vjpyNMP/+Dttqtk9ZTk4OnBP2E=

This can happen if the tag gets moved, or if history gets rewritten. Can you provide a fresh tag, maybe v0.2.1, that points at a useful place?

Thanks!

Hi @hellt

I am trying to enable GNMI server in kind setup.
I tried to configure it with the help from this document: https://infocenter.nokia.com/public/SRLINUX200R6A/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.srlinux.configbasics%2Fhtml%2Fconfigb-mgmt_servers.html
but GNMI is still not starting, it shows it is waiting for configuration even after configuration( attached screenshot)
below is my Nokia configuration for gnmi. Please help and if there is any Nokia forum with experts who can help with such issues or queries please provide the link.

It is potentially not allowed to have extra fields in the CRD spec, so this better be moved some other place.
