⁠LFNE - Linux For Network Engineers

Formerly known as PFNE - Python For Network Engineer, the images developed to be more than just for Python learning.

Linux images build with all tools need by network engineers to perform various tasks ranging from simple python script to automation and testing.
Below is the list of installed applications on LFNE images. Pull one and start experimenting.

I’m using two main distributions to build these images - Ubuntu and AlmaLinux - pick your favorite flavor

LFNE based on Ubuntu 22.04

Pull the image: docker pull yotis/lfne:ubuntu-22.04
Use the image: docker run -i -t yotis/lfne:ubuntu-22.04 /bin/bash
If used with Portainer don’t forget to activate the option for Console : Interactive & TTY

LFNE based on AlmaLinux 9.2

Pull the image: docker pull yotis/lfne:almalinux-9.2
Use the image: docker run -i -t yotis/lfne:almalinux-9.2 /bin/bash
If used with Portainer don’t forget to activate the option for Console : Interactive & TTY

Some of the installed packages:

Openssl
Net-tools (ifconfig…)
IPutils (ping, arping, traceroute…)
Socat
Host (DNS lookup tool)
Mtr (traceroute tool)
Telnet / SSH client
IProute2
IPerf (traffic generator)
TCPDump
Nmap
Python 2 (only on Ubuntu variant)
Python 3
Paramiko
Netmiko
Ansible
Pyntc
Napalm
Openssh Server

To use remote ssh connection to container

• Enable it with “service ssh start”
• Expose the desired port for the container (tcp/22 default)

I will try to update the images once a month to have them up-to-date with new package releases.
