[@hirocastro1625]

Very informative! I got it working on the first try thanks to your video.

Thanks. Spent all day trying to figure this out. I had forgotten to change the portgroup to promiscous mode.

[@IkechukwuOkonjo]

hi knox. i got a recommendation of your channel from john mcgovern. i was following his python for network engineers course, he used eve-ng and ubuntu setup. i was wondering how i could set up these two vms to communicate. i am new to vms and networking in general

[@KOmban99]

Great Explanation . i would like to ask that when one has hosted EVE-NG VM in a vAPP and and need to make sure Cloud 1 traffic which is from all nodes in eve-ng is forwarded to internet that eventually sends traffic to internet via cloud 0 NIC then what configuration needs to be made. I dont have access to vApp but internally cloud 1 NIC interface can send traffic to Cloud 0 .So does promiscuous mode configured.

can this be done in vmware workstation tho? if so, how?

Hello, thanks for the very good work. Im new to eve-ng. built a server Dell 630R I believe, bare-metal installation of eve-ng pro and its up and running with Juniper vmx images loaded and operational. planning to add Cisco images too. I very much like to connect eve-ng to my Cisco switches, external switches like I once did with GNS3 (lots of trunks and cables really). altho, worked but was very messy. now, with the power I see from eve-ng, I am thinking it should be possible to add external switches to any topology so eve-ng sees them as its nodes. can you help on this please? I don't have external VMWare EXI server and I believe I will not have but I do have number of Cisco switches and soon will have Juniper EX-4300 switch. any help and guiding would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Masood

@DataKnox, thanks for the video, I came here searching for the samething in GPC but I still couldnt make it work, have you tried something like in GCP? I added another nic in eve-ng gcp vm and configure it with pnet1 and connect cloud1 with a pc but its not working ...let me know if you have any advice ?

[@bootcd]

It is possible to comunicate with internte with cloud 1

[@chrisco9782]

Is it possible to change the icons from a cloud to something else in the pro version? Doesn't seem to be in the community version.

[@chrisco9782]

To answer myself, yes you can. Looks like I'm going to have to pull the trigger and go pro. Pretty topologies are worth it alone, haha.

@@chrisco9782 i was not trying to figure the same thing out..ha..pulling the trigger also

[@ahmedal-ani2727]

Thanks Knox. I actually have a question about the server that I am planning to purchase for home lab. I have gotten a good deal on a rack server. However, there's a problem with the server which a dysfunctional ILO? I am wondering if it worth buying it? Thanks in advance

[@DataKnox]

If iLO is the only thing broken I wouldn’t worry about it much

[@ahmedal-ani2727]

@@DataKnox I will buy it then and start lab-ing. Thanks ☺️
