Does anyone know what are the node image options that available? Also, Is it possible for us to create our own images for reuse later?

Thanks,

Parikshit.

Good question. For now, the only images available are “default_ubuntu_20” and “default_centos_8”. We plan to enable custom images at a later date. Let us know if you have a specific experiment that needs a different OS flavor.

Generally, custom images are useful if you have specific Linux flavor, kernel, or device driver requirements. We recommend packaging software in Docker containers. Starting an experiment can use a baseVM image followed by pulling a Docker container from a service such as Docker Hub. Stay tuned for a software P4 switch example that I will release soon. It loads the experimental software suing Docker Hub.
