martimy/clab_sdn_dcn

The project is a collection of configuration files (primarily YAML for containerlab) that orchestrates existing networking tools. With 31 stars and 8 forks over nearly four years, and zero current velocity, it represents a static educational resource or personal lab setup rather than a developing software product. There is no proprietary code or novel algorithm; its value is purely in the convenience of the pre-defined topology. It is easily reproducible by any network engineer familiar with containerlab. The 'moat' is non-existent as the project relies entirely on the ecosystem of containerlab (maintained by Nokia and others), which is the actual project with defensibility in this niche. Displacement risk is high because newer SDN controllers or more advanced lab templates (like those from the official containerlab 'lab-examples' repo) provide more comprehensive features.
