This post walks through installing SONiC-VS on EVE-NG 6 using the built-in <strong>Sonic Switch</strong> template, validating the first boot with real console captures, and finishes with a command reference for the SONiC CLI — the commands you actually reach for once the switch is up: interfaces, routing, logs, config, and user management.</p>
