Hello

Thank you for making EVE NG better every day

I would like to know if eve-ng supports cloud-init data for a newly created node. For example. I am using Cisco SDWAN vEdge and i would like to implement ZTP. I need to put the following KVM cloud init data:

#cloud-config
vinitparam:
- otp : jkdjkdkjdsjkdjksjkkjds
- vbond : 1.2.3.4
- uuid : 5abdhdhd-cjhdheh-ejfjjf-ehejhe
- org : LAB_TEST

I have been trying using QEMU custom options when creating the node, but it does not work. This could be great feature in case we want to use ZTP inside eve-ng to deploy sdwan and test.

Is there a way we can support this?

Please refer to this link:https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/r ... _10212.xml The part where it says install self signed certificates in 17.1 and later

Generate a Bootstrap Configuration File

To generate a bootstrap configuration file for a vEdge Cloud router:

In vManage NMS, select the Configuration ► Devices screen.

To generate a bootstrap configuration file for one or multiple vEdge Cloud routers:
In the vEdge List tab, select Export Bootstrap Configuration.
In the Generate Bootstrap Configuration field, select the file format:
For a vEdge Cloud router on a KVM hypervisor or on an AWS server, select Cloud-Init to generate a token, vBond orchestrator IP address, vEdge Cloud router UUID, and organization name.


Thanks in advance

EVE does support it...mistake is in your vEdges which must have your lab root certificate..
not cisco..
and xtp must resolve cisco.com to your ztp server#It is not easy task to do

Thanks Uldis,

Yes i know how to do all that with ZTP what i am looking for is where in the eve-ng node for a vEdge or QEMU image can i put the cloud-init data so the vedge can boot up with the specified SN and orgname etc in the first boot.

I dont see an option where to put the bootstrap configuration in the vEdge, not via CLI because thats not my intention (i can do request vedge-cloud activate for that). Instead to put it when creating the node.

Best

Hi
Did u manage to work out ?

i tried manually, but cEDGE does not form control connections

Also on vEDGE interface ge-0/0 on 20.1.1 does not come up (anybody encountered this)?
