MVP Simulated Topology
topology.json is the L2/L3 dry-run fixture for the simulator skeleton. It
describes two hwlab-box-simu instances, two hwlab-gateway-simu instances,
and one hwlab-patch-panel.
Cross-device propagation is represented only through the patch panel wiring config. Box simulators keep local port state but do not provide loopback as a cross-device synchronization substitute.
