Startup Memory: I have 12GB on my laptop, so I assigned 8GB, but it depends on your own machine.

Name: EVE-NG (you can use any other name, but we will need this name after for a PowerShell change to activateВ Intel VT-x or AMD-V, so avoid special characters).

Click on вЂњNew Virtual MachineвЂќ on Hyper-V.

#EVE CISCO ISO#

Download Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ISO (be careful, Ubuntu 18 is NOT supported):.LetвЂ™s create the VM under Hyper-V and make the Ubuntu install: Of course, you must adapt these values according to your own hardware. This is probably the minimum to runВ IOU/IOL and Dynamips images, and insufficient for topology with CSR1000V and/or Nexus-9k. So, I assigned 8GB of RAM and 4vCPU to the server.

#EVE CISCO INSTALL#

For information, I made this install with a Lenovo T450s laptop with Windows 10 pro and 12GB of RAM.

The system requirements for Ubuntu server and the installation guide are here:.

The system requirements for EVE-NG are here:.

Your laptop must have Hyper-V already installed and a vSwitch already created with Internet access.

I threw a bottle to the sea (Twitter) and got a promising answer that EVE-NG has been successfully installed on Microsoft Azure ( see it on YouTube here, a great videos from So, I thought, letвЂ™s try on Hyper-V! In this case, did not find any documentation or post of someone who has already installed it under Hyper-V. Then, I wanted to test the same with EVE-NG. Because, after all, this is just an Ubuntu server running on a VM.ДЇor GNS3, I found a pretty good blog, here: ДЄnd after two hours I could run my first simulation without any problem.В (Note: this blog does not respond from time to time, and currently it seems down).

#EVE CISCO HOW TO#

So, I searched a documentation or a blog post about how to install and run GNS3 or EVE-NG under Hyper-V. For example, to start a VM under VMware workstation when Hyper-V start as a service, I must first stop Hyper-V, do a reboot, and then I can start the VM under VMware. And VMware Workstation does not coexist well with Microsoft Hyper-V on the same machine. But have a problem here, I use Microsoft Hyper-V for other VMs tests, as well as for Docker for Windows. So, as an alternative to Cisco VIRL, I had two obvious choices: GNS3 or EVE-NG.ДЇor running one of the three solutions (including VIRL) on a laptop under Windows 10, it is recommended and documented to use VMware Workstation. With the exceptional opportunities of the different cloud solutions actually, this is probably not the best solution, but it suits me well for a small lab and IвЂ™d like to continue to have this possibility.

I got used to install the client and the server parts of VIRL on my laptop, to not have to worry about connectivity when I want to do a lab or a demo to a colleague or a customer.

#EVE CISCO LICENSE#

Go to image directory and upload the Cisco SDWAN images to vtbond-19.2.3ДҐ.Recently, my license for Cisco VIRL expired and I wanted to test alternatives to have a lab on my laptop. Upload the downloaded image to the EVE using, for example, FileZillaВ or WinSCP. Then login as root using SSH protocol and uncompress it:Д¬reate the abc directory and upload the image in the directory using FileZilla or WinSCP and then decompressing the image. Upload the downloaded image to the EVE using for example FileZillaВ or WinSCP. SSH to EVE and login as root, from cli and create image directory in the EVE: mkdir /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/vtbond-19.2.3 3.

If you do not have access to Cisco Website you can download the image from below alternate link. To download latest Cisco SDWAN images, you can subscribe to Lab4Work. To install Eve-ng on you desktop check below Post-ДЇollow Below Steps to add Cisco SDWAN to Eve-ng. You can setup your own lab and practice as much as you want. Eve-ng is one of the best emulators to Practice with Cisco SDWAN, where you can import the image in eve-ng and access it directly.
