container-based networking labs

`Containerlab` is a tool for orchestrating and managing containerized Network Operating Systems in user-defined topologies. It supports various NOSes, VM based nodes, lab as code, scaled labs generator and more features.

Containerlab provides a single IaaC interface to manage labs which can span contain all the needed variants of nodes.

it VM based nodes friendly

With the [vrnetlab integration] (https://containerlab.dev/manual/vrnetlab/) it is possible to get the best of two worlds - running virtualized and containerized nodes alike with the same IaaC approach and workflows.

baby steps, but confirmed I have ping metric monitoring working in OTEL -> Prometheus (aka found the containerlab tools netem function!)

learning new stuff feels good 🥳

Empezamos en #KDEexpress una serie especial dedicada al @eslibre, en la que entrevistamos a algunos ponentes.
En esta ocasión José Castillo Lema:

Charlamos de su experiencia como desarrollador en RedHat y de sus dos charlas:
- OCaml vs Python
- Containerlab

Como siempre las notas y enlaces están en https://kdeexpress.gitlab.io/posts/kdeexpress/65-kde-express/

Y en esta ocasión hemos conseguido por primera vez las transcripciones/subtítulos identificando quien habla.
