Option to hide dummy links on TopoViewer or option to set min number of interfaces on a node

[NoifP]

I've been using dummy ports to ensure network devices have a minimum number of ports so configs from production devices can import. This has been working fine (although somewhat clunky).

However, in v0.17.3 TopoViewer is now drawing links to dummy .

topology:
  links:
    - type: dummy
      endpoint:
        node: router01
        interface: eth60

It'd be great to have an option to turn on/off drawing of dummy ports on TopoViewer; or alternatively introduce a node attribute that says how many network interfaces should be added. Example below.

topology:
  nodes:
    router01:
      interfaces: 60

In my opinion adding something to set how many interfaces to add to a node would be the nicer solution.

@NoifP The latter is something that is best added to clab directly. Both can definitely be achieved. Thanks

Thanks. I have created an issue here: srl-labs/containerlab#2804

Since I see your issue closed as not planned, I will add the hiding dummies to my backlog or someone else will pick it up first.
