SROS: map port from higher (>32) range to be used within containerlab

[sdktr]

Hi; trying to run a lab where a specific (100G) upstream port from a high-port platform is used to connect. E.g.: leaf IXR-s has 48 10G ports and port >49 are 100G. I'm trying to map port 49 using containerlab.

But this naming check causes containerlab to fail the deployment.

My question is: can I map a specific port within SROS (e.g. 49) to e.g. eth11, so it falls within the appearant max ethernet check of SROS/Containerlab? I have no need to use >5 interfaces of this node in the lab, but just need them to come from the higher port range.

Hi @sdktr
this is a vSim limitation, high-range ports are not supported.
