 This playbook is used to install ContainerLab on a VM, and test network configurations.
 
 To run this playbook:
+```
+ansible-playbook -i $the-vm-you-want-to-configure, playbook.yml -e "username=$your-username-on-registry" -e "secret_token=$your-secret-tocken" -k
+```
+Please note the comma after the target. 
 
- 1. Clone the base template (in Proxmox) "cl-base-os-template"
- 2. Get the ip address of the new VM, and configure your ssh environment
- 3. Create & activate a python virtual environment and install ansible
- 4. Update inventory.yml so that your VM is defined in the "dev_environments" goup
- 5. update group_vars/dev_environments.yml with your gitlab.geant.net username and personal access token  
- 6. Run ansible like this: ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml playbook.yml
- 
-To ssh into the nat user's shell, you'll need the containerlab-rsa private key ("b3BlbnNzaC1rZXktdjEAAAAABG5...")
-
-To start ContainerLab (e.g. project lab01):
- 1. shell into the nat user
- 2. cd lab01
- 3. sudo containerlab deploy
-
-To view the currently running ContainerLab status:
- 1. navigate to the same directory as above (e.g. lab01)
- 2. sudo containerlab inspect
-
-> For pushing images to the (private/internal) repository at [gitlab.geant.net](https://gitlab.geant.net), refer to [this](https://gitlab.geant.net/docker/ci_registry) readme document.
-> The approach is agnostic to the used registry however, as long as the registry URL is properly set in [the group variables](group_vars/dev_environments.yml.example).
