Stefano Sasso took my “Don’t complain, submit a PR” advice seriously and did a wonderful job adding support for Mikrotik RouterOS and VyOS to netsim-tools, increasing the number of supported platforms to twelve. His additions are available in release 1.0.2 which also includes:

• Automatic creation of groups based on BGP AS numbers
• Group-wide node attributes
• Experimental support for Python plugins
