Ccna Eve Ng Labs Set Up and It’s Usage
by Server Tours Become Network EngineerThe Ccna eve ng
labs requirements are x4 vCPU and 8GB RAM. The Images used in labs have
a VPCS host device. After the lab set is imported, make sure you have set it for
the lab with the proper vIOS image. This image version used in the lab is on
Topology. The Lab contains 2 configurations which sets Default and Solved. The
default configuration set has no configuration.

There are a number of
options to build your individual Cisco SD-WAN lab. EVE-NG is your best option and
for that Cisco iosv
download should be done first. This includes:
·
Downloading the required Cisco & EVE-NG
images.
·
Installing the EVE-NG
·
Installing the images on the EVE-NG
installation
·
Testing whether you can use all the
images.
VIRL has 2 image formats
vmdk & qcow2. qcow2. They are almost ready to use, just you need to create a
proper image folder & load the image. vmdk file needs to be covert to qcow2
format before loading it in EVE. The vios advanced enterprise is there and it contains
vmdk in the filename. This means that it will need to convert to a qcow2 file. The
images also contain qcow2. This means that those images are almost ready to
load & there is no need for extra conversation.
Are switches needed for the
cisco ccna lab?
The networks consist of diverse
layers such as:
·
Core Layer – Servers are the backbone of
the network & interconnected switches. The switches are typically fast &
powerful
·
Distribution Layer – It helps to distribute
traffic from the access layer before it is transmitted to the core.
·
Access Layer – The end devices such as
computers, phones, printers, etc are connected to the switches.
Most IOS versions on
switches & routers are 15.x plus. When using eve-ng to build a cisco lab,
it will just depend on what images are there. If it happens to run into
versions with 12. x as the basic IOS version, then you will still have a way to
learn a lot of the diverse labs available. You will have a very quick overview
of why you should be using routers & switches for your lab but you do not
have to purchase any of them. Using EVE-NG you can also simulate your entire
environment & scale up as you learn more & more complex network designs.
