    Is there anyone from the Switch Simulation Software team? 

    Are there plans or it is even possible for the simulator to have VSX and/or EVPN functioning? It would allow me to model my core infratructure and lab all planed changes before I break something important

    CX simulator supports also EVPN, and since 10.13 does support L3VNI (symmetric IRB)

    I wouldn't assume that a particular feature works in the simulator just because there is a lab for it.  Every time I've tried the Spanning Tree labs they've failed with spectacular broadcast storms even though it's a supported function and the labs say it works.

    Tommyd, have you tried it and been unsuccessful or were you just wondering if it was supported before trying it?
