Step by Step Procedure to Add Cisco VIRL vIOS to Eve-ng

Download Cisco VIRL vIOS qcow2
2. Create the Cisco VIRL vIOS directory in EVE-ng
3. Use Filezilla/WinSCP to upload the Cisco VIRL vIOS image to Eve-ng
4. Fix the Permission
5. Add the Cisco VIRL vIOS node to Eve-NG and Enjoy

IOSv image download free Or you can download EVE-NG images to use original vendor images, Download here

Now is the time to connect to the EVE-NG web interface and create a new LAB

here we’ll give a name and description to the LAB

and here will right-click and a new node

by typing io (to see cisco vios router and switch)

So here we should upload the cisco vios router and switch to the eve-ng by Filezilla or WinScp.

You can see the vios folders that have been uploaded to the eve-ng with Filezilla

Note here the name of vios switch or router should be virtioa.qcow2

Now is the time to connect to eve-ng with putty and apply fixpermission command ” /opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions”

Now we need to verify whether that cisco switch vios is installed or not?

And yes we have deployed the Cisco VIRL vIOS image to EVE-NG.

and finally, we need to add cisco vios l3 and l2 router and switch to the lab and simply start them like below👇

If you need to know how to practice Vlaning and Trunking with Cisco vIOS please watch my video on youtube👇

Website: https://dynamips.store/

Dynamips is a Cisco router emulator. Supported platforms are 1700, 2600, 3600, 3700 and 7200 routers. Each IOS has an associated Idle PC value. Idle PC is used to map the idle instruction of the running IOS to the idle instruction of the UNetLab platform. With a good Idle PC value, the CPU usage should be less than 10% for each instance.

Eve-ng is a platform where you can add Cisco routers images and can do unlimited practice for your certification. In Eve-ng you can practice lab up to CCIE level

We will tell you step by step process of How to add Cisco IOS images to EVE-ng

2. Download Cisco IOS (Dynamips images) Eve-ng

Images provided below are strictly for education purpose and are not hosted on networkhunt.com server. We are just indexing the links find on internet for education purpose only.

You can download Cisco IOS (dynamips images) from below links.
1. Cisco Website (Cisco Access required to download images from cisco website.
2. Mega
https://mega.nz/#F!fpxnXIKB!twpa-jzH4ReWZFq5uZENZg

If you are uploading the zip file then install the required package-

Install required packages:
apt-get -y install unzip

Upload the downloaded image to the Eve-ng master node using for example FileZilla or WinSCP. Then login as root using SSH protocol and uncompress it:

Create tmp directory
mkdir abc

Using EVE CLI, uncompress original image. Output file extension must be .image. Be sure you are using properly your source and output filenames.

cd abc unzip -p c1710-bk9no3r2sy-mz.124-23.bin > c1710-bk9no3r2sy-mz.124-23.image

Move uncompressed image to destination folder:
mv c1710-bk9no3r2sy-mz.124-23.image /opt/unetlab/addons/dynamips/
Clean and fix permissions:
cd rm -rf abc /opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions

4. CALCULATING IDLE PC

If an unsupported image is added to the UNetLab platform, an Idle PC value must be identified. Start a Dynamips instance with basic configuration:

dynamips -P 1700 -t 1710 /opt/unetlab/addons/dynamips/c1710-bk9no3r2sy-mz.124-23.image

CPU usage is very high, a whole CPU for each instance:

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
 3521 root      20   0  412236 125408 109904 S 99.5 25.4   3:27.82 dynamips

Wait for the following line on the console:

Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:

Exit from initial configuration dialog, and quit to get the con0 prompt:

Router con0 is now available

Press RETURN to get started.

After few more seconds press CTRL + ] then i. Dynamips will show suggested Idle PC values:

Please wait while gathering statistics...
Done. Suggested idling PC:
   0x80369ac4 (count=35)
   0x8023afac (count=51)
   0x8023b008 (count=30)
   0x8023b050 (count=27)
   0x803637a0 (count=38)
   0x80363984 (count=20)
   0x80363ccc (count=28)
   0x80363d48 (count=28)
   0x80363d78 (count=74)
   0x803645d0 (count=76)
Restart the emulator with "--idle-pc=0x80369ac4" (for example)

Select one and restart dynamips with the IDle PC value:

dynamips -P 1700 -t 1710 --idle-pc 0x80369ac4 /opt/unetlab/addons/dynamips/c1710-bk9no3r2sy-mz.124-23.image

If CPU usage is lower, then a good Idle PC value has been found:

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
 3598 root      20   0  346700 125328 109828 S  5.3 25.3   0:03.98 dynamips

Usually the highest value of IDLE PC will best for your CPU. In the calculation above it is 76. Copy value of IDLE PC to the notepad and we can start test best value fit for your Dynamips node.

To stop dynamips router calculation mode use:

Key combo CTRL and ] then q

Go to EVE WEB GUI, add your Dynamips node and change IDLE PC value to calculated, save and start node.

Check your CPU with top command (cpu check section above)

If CPU usage is lower, then a good IDLE PC value has been found:

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
 3598 root      20   0  346700 125328 109828 S  5.3 25.3   0:03.98 dynamips

If CPU is still high, then another value must be tested.

How do I add a Cisco image to Eve

Make sure you are using US/EN keyboard on your terminal. SSH to the EVE to obtain cli access, and create temporary directory abc. Upload original Cisco image binary file to temporary directory abc. The best for upload is FileZilla or WinSCP.
