Otherwise the boot with the ISO will not start:
Go under Security and disable Secure Boot. Once created, on Hyper-V, select your VM, right-click and choose Settings…. Eve ng install#
Install the operating system from a bootable image file: and specify the Ubuntu ISO image you just downloaded. It’s a lot but if you have many images on EVE-NG, you don’t need to resize the disk later. Hard-Disk: create a virtual hard-disk, I assigned 300GB. 
You must have Internet access during the installation, for the updates.
Networking: use a vSwitch already existing, connected to the Internet. Startup Memory: I have 12GB on my laptop, so I assigned 8GB, but it depends on your own machine. Name: EVE-NG (you can use any other name, but we will need this name after for a PowerShell change to activate Intel VT-x or AMD-V, so avoid special characters). Click on “New Virtual Machine” on Hyper-V. Download Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ISO (be careful, Ubuntu 18 is NOT supported):. Let’s create the VM under Hyper-V and make the Ubuntu install: Of course, you must adapt these values according to your own hardware. This is probably the minimum to run IOU/IOL and Dynamips images, and insufficient for topology with CSR1000V and/or Nexus-9k. So, I assigned 8GB of RAM and 4vCPU to the server. Eve ng windows 10#
For information, I made this install with a Lenovo T450s laptop with Windows 10 pro and 12GB of RAM. The system requirements for Ubuntu server and the installation guide are here:. The system requirements for EVE-NG are here:. Your laptop must have Hyper-V already installed and a vSwitch already created with Internet access. I threw a bottle to the sea (Twitter) and got a promising answer that EVE-NG has been successfully installed on Microsoft Azure ( see it on YouTube here, a great videos from So, I thought, let’s try on Hyper-V! In this case, did not find any documentation or post of someone who has already installed it under Hyper-V. Then, I wanted to test the same with EVE-NG. Because, after all, this is just an Ubuntu server running on a VM.įor GNS3, I found a pretty good blog, here: Īnd after two hours I could run my first simulation without any problem. (Note: this blog does not respond from time to time, and currently it seems down). Eve ng how to#
So, I searched a documentation or a blog post about how to install and run GNS3 or EVE-NG under Hyper-V. For example, to start a VM under VMware workstation when Hyper-V start as a service, I must first stop Hyper-V, do a reboot, and then I can start the VM under VMware. And VMware Workstation does not coexist well with Microsoft Hyper-V on the same machine. But have a problem here, I use Microsoft Hyper-V for other VMs tests, as well as for Docker for Windows. So, as an alternative to Cisco VIRL, I had two obvious choices: GNS3 or EVE-NG.įor running one of the three solutions (including VIRL) on a laptop under Windows 10, it is recommended and documented to use VMware Workstation. With the exceptional opportunities of the different cloud solutions actually, this is probably not the best solution, but it suits me well for a small lab and I’d like to continue to have this possibility.
I got used to install the client and the server parts of VIRL on my laptop, to not have to worry about connectivity when I want to do a lab or a demo to a colleague or a customer.

Recently, my license for Cisco VIRL expired and I wanted to test alternatives to have a lab on my laptop.
