I am attempting to run this NSO Sandbox Lab.
It starts ok and I follow the instructions on this DevNet learning lab.
However the distribution switches in the lab - namely dist-sw01 and dist-sw02 - simply fail.
I cannot access them from the management station. Nor can I set arp or ping responses from the neighbouring routers within the topology. Needless to say NSO is unable to connect to them.

It appears the sandbox is broken and the switches simply fail. I've tried to see if I can restart them from teh dashboard but that option does not seem to be present.
Can someone advise who I can contact to get this looked at (or if perhaps, I'm doing something to inadvertently kill the switches - though I can't see how, as I'm simply following the commands as outlined in the DevNet Learning Lab).
