Create Your Own Containers (like Netbox) for EVE-NG with Docker-in-Docker

[@mjpgannon]

Such a great walk through. I especially like the quick tip to create bespoke images based on your eve-gui-server docker. I think that's what I'll do for learning docker & NGINX this month.

Hello KnoX, great video!!! Can we use CIsco XRd in EVE-NG as a docker and build topologies? If yes, can you show us the tutorial?

[@pilotwasif]

Thank you Knox, very informative video. Bad gateway and stuck there not moving forward.

[@anthonyhind2367]

great walkthrough Knox would love to see you experiment more with other dockers like flow collectors for example ;)

[@DataKnox]

Good idea...

Hi Knox , thanks for sharing some good knowledgable stuff here. I want to ask you one thing, as many companies are moving towards WORK FROM HOME permanently so how do you think towards the future of Network Engineers.

[@Chris4380.]

great walkthrough Knox! i am going through all your eve content and learning a lot. When you commit the image for the container does the mac address stick with the interface? I am wondering if there would be conflict when adding multiple versions of the same container.

[@leonirhoxha]

Nice stuff and explanation.

Hey Knox, Gr8 walkthrough, Would you pls advise how to achieve the same on EVE community version? is there a way? Thanks

[@DataKnox]

Not possible on Community

Watch out for black November sale for eve. They give quite a big discount on licence.

Hi Knox, I'm unable to reach the ngnix server using firefox on port 8000, even though I can ping the server from my GUI-Server container. Running dc ps shows me that the ngnix and some other components keep restarting over and over, which could be why. Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Hey Kolya I'm running into the same issue. Would you mind sharing the resolution if you found one?

[@kolyamccleave3966]

@@lembesas Still no luck. I plan to look for other DIND tutorials

I have Installed EVE from ISO in my Exsi but after adding Router and click on start router doesnt start... Tried with switch etc but nothing works in Evng. Any solution?

[@DataKnox]

Sounds like you need to look into enabling virtualization on the processor

[@falconfurry6432]

@@DataKnox I am not sure since we dont enable Virtualisation in a EXSI when we install Evng in VM... should I insfall it as bare of Vm
