Thanks a lot for the videos, really appreciate the Eve-NG topics here. For GCP, I think I would try and secure my Eve-NG box to prevent it being hacked/taken over and used as a bot or something. I would try and restrict the firewall rules to my public IP at home/work, not the whole Internet and/or maybe install a jumphost of some kind to use from the Internet. I think GCP even has some reverse proxy services which can authenticate you based on your Google account but i haven’t had time to look at them. I love Eve-NG, but I don’t think the developers have a big focus on security based on the default root access. So I wouldn’t want this directly accessible to the whole Internet.
First of all, I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us. I find your videos very interesting and informative. If possible could you please let me know how to use NET cloud with the internet capability on GCP deployed Eve-ng server ? I am struggling to configure that part. Thank you

Hello Knox! THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN! :D My laptop has 16gb of memory and it cannot run the SDWAN images or the CSR. Do you think Google Cloud Platform will be able to run them?
So Konx is it possible for multiple users to concurrently log into it for practice ? If yes make a video on that or a link to teach me because I want to set this for my Cisco Class.
Hey man, have you been able to use the management cloud on it? I'm having trouble to get a SD-WAN lab going on it because I can't transfer files to the nested controllers inside the EVE-NG. Any thoughts?
Great video! Two questions: (1) Can this be done with the Community version of EVE-NG? (2) What purpose do the Docker containers provide with EVE-NG? Thanks.
It can but it is a completely different process with a different disk image and install script. You may want to check my playlist for the Docker info ua-cam.com/play/PLIlpqyrKHrRPcRWKNSFo9qr2Oz307klT1.html
Hello Knox. Your videos are very interesting. As I've seen that you imported Cisco CML images on Eve-NG Pro (as you paid for the Personal version in order to have legal licenses), I was wondering this: haven't you tried to use, instead of Eve-NG, Cisco CML directly on GCP? It would be very interesting from my point of view. No import process. In addition, CML supports KVM images so you can run also 3d parties hardware virtualized. Thanks for your reply.
I haven’t explored running CML in GCP. I don’t have anything against CML - I think it’s a solid product. You may, however, want to check out my EVE-NG playlist to explore some of the main features of EVE-NG Pro that really impressed me, like this one ua-cam.com/video/1CyRtmfyv_8/v-deo.html
Great video to help me clarify the process I went through. My biggest unknown at the moment is exactly what size instance to be using. I know you mentioned what you selected as a min. What is your recommended "ideal" instance? I am wanting to get into bigger topo's and SD stuff. I currently choose N-1 w/ 16 vCPU and 60 GB of mem.
Yeah that’s the big question and it depends on the images you use. IOL images will use WAY less resources than IOSv, for instance. But as soon as you get into vManage, FMC, CSR1000v... those are big.
@@DataKnox well shouldn’t that be one benefit of running the lab in GCP. Shouldn’t the billing be based processing elasticity? I haven’t really really looked into it because, hey new toys! I do not have a physical machine that is powerful enough so this is a good solution that I will “optimizing” over the next few weeks!
@@ppiuz988 I dont see why not, its just a “regular” machine in the end. I installed Ansible on mine and working with automation concepts running from the server itself.
@Data Knox - Thanks for great video, I am exactly following your steps, however after running bash script and command "shutdown -r now" my VM never connect to SSH, infact i can't even ping the public ip after shutdown. I am wondering what could be the issue here?
I've been having the same problem here. Any idea why? Is there something we could do? I'm trying to get a SD-WAN lab going here, but I'm not able to upload the serial viptela files to register the vedges/cedges because of this problem

hi Knox, what spec do you recommend to run the CCIE Lab?
32GB RAM if you want every node turned on at once
please your help i have a error of 98 license error!

Hi Knox, how much RAM do you recommend if I would like to use Cisco 9000 Xrv 7.0.x for a topology consist of 10 nodes ?
alot
I have HTTPS and HTTP enabled but EVE-NG is only allowing HTTP. Is there something in EVE-NG we need to enable?
If you never figured it out, yes there is. It's in the EVE-NG cookbook, just required installing an SSL cert and updating some configs.
how can i delete node permanent on eve-ng
