Adding Firepower FTD and FMC to EVE NG

[@ponytrap12]

thanks JP, I used a network cloud object of type "bridge" for the management network and just connected all mgmt interfaces to that

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

You’re welcome. Yes any cloud object of the same type would work 👍

Was hard to hear but great video, learnt a lot!

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

Thanks for watching. I plan on investing in a new mic soon 👍

Good day JP, hope you are doing well. Just wanted to check-in before I do a deep dive, will this work on the Community Edition of EVE-NG?

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

Hi Devon. No, this is for the pro edition. Differences are that there is no Nat on community and that you can’t do warm connections, I.e you have to restart each time.

Thank you for the great video, kindly share images

[@vornsavan3342]

can you please provide latest FTD & FMC image for eve-ng

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

Hi Vorn, these are the same images that you would use for FTDv and FMCv. They can be downloaded from the Cisco site if you have a CCO account. They come with a 90 day free license.

what's the basic laptop hardware configuration we need to setup a similar lab (FMC/FTD)

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

Hi Rakesh, that very much depends on the version of fmc/ftd. Anything newer than 6.6 requires much higher resources. You could get away with maybe 4GB ram and 2 CPU’s for anything earlier than that.

[@rakeshkala7042]

@@jpsnetworkingchannel3430 really appreciated, will i5 with 32 gb ram will work for versions 6.6 or later?

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

@@rakeshkala7042 it will work, just may be slow to manage from the fmc. Might not to be bad , it depends how much you’ll be using it in the lab.

Hello JP Can you share your Virtual FMCv, FTDv and NEXUSv with me? I don't have a licence CCO account Thank you for your reply.

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

I cannot sorry, you will need a valid CCO license in order to get these.

[@khalid82atd]

audio wasn't good it would be better if you write down IP schema if you keep chopping topology over and over its hard to follow as you know to drop a link and reconnect you need to power off and wait for 30 mins till you can do something on it. thanks for sharing though

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

Hi Muhammad, thanks for watching. If you watch some of my more recent videos you’ll see I’ve invested in a new mic and camera to add to the quality of the videos. The link issue is due to me running the pro version of eve-ng which lets you connect/disconnect links live. I will be switching to gns3 for some upcoming studying I’m doing so will be setting up the devices in there also and will be making videos in that.

@@jpsnetworkingchannel3430 Thanks for the reply mate. I will be looking forward for lab with FTD+ISE+AAA windows server together in a lab

[@jpsnetworkingchannel3430]

@@khalid82atd Check out my HQ lab series videos. I build a network from scratch that includes FTD, FMC and ISE
