Flagship project / Network lab platform
Netforge.
Real infrastructure. Reproducible answers.
A Kubernetes-powered workspace for building real network labs, investigating failures, and sharing what you find.
THE IDEA
Why I built it.
Netforge turns a cluster into an isolated network lab. Linux hosts, routers, firewalls, and desktops run as real containers or virtual machines, so troubleshooting follows actual traffic rather than a simulation.
IN PRACTICE
What it does.
Build a topology from a description or template.
Open browser-based shells and desktops, inspect connectivity, and capture packets.
Inject faults, snapshot the environment, and restore it for the next experiment.
Connect an AI agent through MCP and produce a shareable HTML investigation report.
CONTEXT & SCOPE
Where it fits.
Built for DNS, routing, TLS, proxy, firewall, and Netskope investigations. The platform is also designed for proofs of value and technical demonstrations.
