I than move the OVA into this directory and change to this directory as well: mv ArubaOS-CX_10_05_0020_ova.zip temp/ I always create a temporary working directory were I do all the following stuff: mkdir temp You need to upload the OVA to the EVE-NG host. All you need is to download the OVA of the ArubaOS CX switch. First I would like to start with the simplest to install. So let’s start to bring some devices online. That way, I can reach everything within my cloud based lab. I will forward the port “8080” to port “80” in the EVE-NG host itself and port “8081” to port “443” on the host “172.16.1.100” which is my NetEdit server. If I would like to access host”172.16.1.100″ through the SSH tunnel the command for the connection would look like this: ssh -i CloudStation/Cert/PublicKey/eve-ng_key.pem -L 8080::80 -L 8081:172.16.1.100:443 Now I can use the “172.16.1.0/24” network to get access to my virtual devices from the EVE-NG host or through my SSH tunnel, using port forwarding. In order to make this work open the “/etc/network/interfaces” file and modify the existing “pnet1” interface like this: # Cloud devices So I created a second network, only available at the EVE-NG server itself. If you are in a local installation, you can also use this Cloud network, as all your virtual devices will then be able to get an IP from the same network as the EVE-NG server itself.īut as my VM is running in Azure this will not help me. The first Cloud network is always bound to the first ethernet interface. EVE-NG uses Cloud networks to connect the virtual world with the real world. Second, I created an internal management network for all my network devices within EVE-NG. For this, I do two things.įirst, I do local port forwarding through the SSH session in order to access the EVE-NG WEB UI and also to access the UI’s of the network devices in my labs. To get access to the network devices, I use the EVE-NG VM as a hoping server. EVE-NG Management InterfaceĪs I’m running EVE-NG in the cloud I’m not directly connected to my EVE-NG VM. You can do this with EVE-NG in Azure or in every other supported environment. This was related to EVE-NG in Azure, the following post is related to EVE-NG. I did a first post on this with the topic on how to install EVE-NG in Azure here: I discovered that EVE-NG supports a lot of Aruba Stuff and in this post, I will show how to get it running in EVE-NG.
