It should be still possible to only spin up the control plane without any switches ? Is this the case ? If yes this would be awesome.

Would be possible with a third topology file.

@simcod Could you test https://containerlab.dev/cmd/deploy/#node-filter and document the behavior? We could introduce the additional make targets "only-control-plane" and "only-partition".

- kvm as hypervisor for the VMs (you can check through the `kvm-ok` command)
- [docker](https://www.docker.com/) >= 20.10.13 (for using kind and our deployment base image)
- [kind](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kind/releases) == v0.20.0 (for hosting the metal control plane)
- [containerlab](https://containerlab.srlinux.dev/install/) >= v0.47.1

Tested without local kinD installation. Besides the .kubeconfig file created with root ownership, the setup still works.

At the moment, the use of kinD via containerlab is not stable enough. Therefore, we should stick with the current configuration.

Should we close then?

We should discuss together, still find this approach reasonable

It is possible to create the cluster with the --node-selector option. However, it is not possible to destroy it with this option. So the feature has currently some known issues. More information can be fond here.
