Narbik VIRL topology or....
Is it worth converting Narbik's topology to VIRL (aka swapping outdated serial interfaces for Ethernet), or does that muddy-up the lab tasks too much to extrapolate from? I haven't seen any updates from Micronics regarding VIRL, but maybe someone has some information on that? I realize it can be done in GNS3 and spend…
