This is an EVE-NG Server that includes Network Nodes needed to emulate a Viptela SD-WAN Network! This Server can be used as a CCNP/CCIE Lab, since it includes all the elements need for that purpose. It is based on a Dell R620 Hardware with 128GB RAM + 1TB SSD Drive. The Dell R620 is a very quiet Server that is loaded with VMware ESXi 6.5. This Server comes with 2 x Ten-Core Processors (Xeon E5-2660v2). Ten-Core Processors have 20 vCPU’s. Therefore, this Server has a total of 40 vCPU’s. This System actually includes 2 main VM’s (each one is a separate Virtual Machine). Cisco CML-2 Server (Cisco Modeling Labs) ver 2.6.0 (latest version) – EVE-NG Server Emulated Virtual Environm. Ver 5.0.1 w/ SD-WAN Support Please notice that CML-2 is licensed product from Cisco. License is not included though. However, EVE-NG Community Edition (free version) does NOT require a License. In addition, this Server includes the following VM’s. Windows 2019 Server (with 180-Day Demo License) – Ubuntu Server ver 20.04.2 (with NSO). This EVE-NG Server includes all the Network Nodes needed to emulate a Viptela SD-WAN Network! This includes the SD-WAN Controllers, also known as Control Plane Components: – vBond – vSmart – vManage And the WAN Edge Nodes, also known as the Data or Forwarding Plane Devices: – vEdge The SD-WAN Controllers use the most recent version: 20.9.3 The WAN Edge Nodes can be implemented with the Viptela vEdge Software ; also version 20.9.3 But they can also be implemented with a CSR1000v Router or with a CAT8000v Router. Include the following versions. CSR1000v with IOS XE version 16.12.5 – CAT8000v with IOS XE version 17.9. Please scroll down for a complete list of the Virtual Devices included with this Server. These are the main features of the Dell R620 used to build this Virtual Lab: – 2 x Quad Core Processors (Xeon E5-2660 or higher) – 4 x Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces – - 128GB RAM can grow up to 768GB! – 1TB SSD Drive (can be upgraded to 2TB SSD) – Operating System: VMware ESXi 6.5 Raw Metal Virtualization OS Having your own Lab (own Physical Server) makes a lot more sense than Renting a Physical or Virtual one! This will really add up in the long run! Please attached image with Reference Prices. Note: Please notice that the Monitor is not included. You’ll need a Monitor and a Keyboard to operate this Server. Is a Free, Open Source Software that can be used to simulate complex networks. CML-2 is a Cisco Licensed Software that can also be used to simulate complex networks. The main advantage of EVE-NG over CML is the fact that while CML provides a Cisco-only environment, EVE-NG is NOT limited to Cisco Devices! EVE-NG provides a Multi-vendor environment! That is, it allows you to emulate complex Networks with all kinds of Network Devices! Please scroll down for more specific differences between EVE-NG and CML. Please also notice that the item price doesn’t include the License for CML-2. Client Software NOT needed. CML-2 and EVE-NG are VM’s that run on the Physical Dell Server. But these are just Back-End Processes that don’t have a User Interface! In order to actually use these VM’s you’ll need a separate computer (a regular PC), that will be the Client PC. Typical Management tasks include. Power up/Power down VM’s, Assign VLAN’s and Network Ports to the VM’s, etc. The ESXi Server can be managed using another special Software known as the vSphere Client , which of course must also be installed in the Client PC. Upgrade Options : Server comes with 128GB RAM. But RAM can grow up to 768GB! These are some other upgrade options available: – 1TB SSD Drive upgrade to 2TB SSD – Drive can also be upgraded to RAID (RAID-1 or RAID-6), but more Drives would be needed. Please write to us for details about these Upgrade options. CML Main Features : These are some of the most important features of the Cisco CML-2 Software : – Includes Official Cisco Images it is the only Tool fully Licensed and approved by Cisco! – Multiple Network Platforms (IOSv, IOSvL2, NX-OSv, IOS XRv, IOS-XEv and ASAv Firewall). CML-2 comes with a complete set of Legal and Fully Licensed Cisco IOS Images that are the same as those running on physical Routers & Switches. New Cisco IOS releases are provided in a regular basis. So you’ll always have the most up to date Virtual IOS Images! It supports the classic IOS Images found in common ISR Routers and Layer 2 Switches: IOSv & IOSvL2 It doesn’t support Layer 3 Switches yet, but it might do so in the near future. In addition to the classic IOS Images, CML supports advanced Platforms such as IOS XRv & XRv 9000 (used in Service Provider environments) It also supports the ASAv Firewall , that can be used for Security related tasks. The new CML-2 version 2.5.1 also includes a pair of very powerful Virtual Appliances; Catalyst 8000v Edge Router and the Catalyst 9000v Virtual Switch , which provide very advanced functions not available in other (older) Appliances. Finally, CML-2 also supports IOS-XEv , which is the virtual version of the Cisco IOS XE Software that comes in the newest ISR Routers like the 42XX, 43XX and 44XX Series! Like GNS3, EVE-NG is Free because it doesn’t include the actual IOS Images needed to boot the Virtual Devices in your Network. Without the proper IOS Images, EVE-NG alone would be basically useless! Therefore, you’d need to provide these IOS Images and upload them to EVE-NG. GNS3 & EVE-NG Users normally struggle trying to find the proper IOS Images. However, our EVE-NG Server is already pre-loaded with multiple IOS Images! As mentioned before, our EVE-NG Server includes all the Network Nodes needed to emulate a Viptela SD-WAN Network! In addition, our Server is pre-loaded with the following IOS Images. Routers – Cisco IOSv Router version 15.9.3 – Cisco XRv Router version 6.3.1 – Cisco XRv-9K Router version 7.2.1 – Cisco CSR1000v with IOS XE version Amsterdam 16.12 Other Devices – Cisco ASAv Firewall version 9.14.1 – Cisco NX-OSv9K Nexus Switch version 9.2.4 – Cisco Layer-2 Switch with IOSv-L2 version 15.2. You can create multiple instances of these Virtual Devices, which are fully setup and ready to use! You can also implement many other Virtual Devices, provided that you upload the proper IOS Image for them. This Virtual Lab has been fully tested and. Therefore it’s guaranteed to work! I f you have any questions about the operation of this Virtual Lab, you can always count on us We’ve been providing Networking Training Kits for years with hundreds of very satisfied customers! Please notice that due to the complex nature of this item we need. 2-3 days for processing. (it depends on where you live). Thank you for looking!
