When running netlab initial -o it seems that all the modules defined on the topology "global" level are considered, even if a device is using only a subset (or different modules).
netlab initial -o
I.e., given this topology snippet:
module: [ vlan, vrf, vxlan, ospf, bgp, evpn, gateway ] groups: routers: members: [ r1, r2 ] device: vyos module: [ bgp ]
netlab initial -o -l r1 reports:
netlab initial -o -l r1

while netlab up still "computes" all the modules, but then it skips the unused ones:

Looks like I broke 'netlab initial' with 100540723f4800ea12e256e1842babf86364f4b5. Thank you, will fix.
