Deploying vMX on EVE NG Community Edition

0:00 [Music]

0:11 hello uh welcome to juniper nebras

0:14 learning bite my name is marvel films

0:16 i'm a lab architect with educational

0:18 services team

0:19 uh in this learning board i'm going to

0:20 be showing you how to deploy a bmx

0:23 router on if ng community edition okay

0:27 uh so what is fbng okay apng

0:30 stands for

0:32 emulated virtual environment

0:34 next generation

0:36 so this is according to their website

0:38 and it's a great tool for learning uh

0:41 new interconnected technologies such as

0:42 networking virtualize and so on where

0:44 you can

0:45 import your vm images

0:47 uh into the avengers server

0:50 and then you can create connections

0:52 between them and then you can bring up

0:54 their own topology

0:55 and then uh you know to learn uh those

0:58 technologies okay and you can share uh

1:01 the topology with others as well most of

1:03 the operations on mng server is managed

1:05 through the uh web ey for the uh

1:08 community edition as far as i can tell

1:10 and that's that can change in the future

1:12 i mean but but uh the only part that you

1:14 have to do use uh ssh

1:16 is a recipe is to bring up the images in

1:20 the server and then once you do that

1:21 import it and then

1:24 eventually server can be deployed on new

1:26 generation pcs vmware servers and

1:28 browser and the cloud okay they have

1:31 documentation on their site

1:33 for different deployment types that you

1:35 can you can use follow

1:37 along okay

1:38 in my case i'm using a esxi environment

1:41 where i deployed

1:42 the fng server vm uh through an iso and

1:46 went to the installation like any other

1:47 one to installation i want similar this

1:49 is based on the button

1:51 and uh went to the installation and uh

1:54 enabled hardware assistant verification

1:56 on the cpu of the vm so that you know i

1:59 can run uh vms inside deploy vms inside

2:02 my mg kbm instance okay for this uh

2:06 demonstration i'm using community

2:08 edition which is free to use as of today

2:10 and there are paid versions with more

2:12 features and support but

2:14 in many cases you know you can learn a

2:16 lot of things with just the

2:18 communication that's what i didn't tell

2:19 but if you want to support the project

2:21 you can you can definitely progression

2:23 right

2:24 so most juniper virtual appliances can

2:26 be run on mng

2:28 uh you know i haven't had any issue with

2:30 ds4x bmx or vkfx yet or drr so and you

2:35 can learn more about their latest

2:36 features and requirements from their

2:37 website link as shown here

2:40 uh without further ado let's start the

2:42 demonstration process

2:44 and i'm gonna exit out from this and i'm

2:46 gonna ssh to the avenge server vm that i

2:49 have

2:51 okay so i'm already resistance to it uh

2:53 and

2:55 the vms right so

2:57 the vmx uh image that i downloaded from

3:00 the uh

3:01 juniper network support site is

3:04 basically uh downloaded here okay

3:06 under this directory on the root

3:09 you will just and you can have a

3:11 different directory if you want but in

3:12 my case i kept it here and this tg file

3:15 is the one that i downloaded the first

3:18 thing i'm going to be doing is extract

3:20 this file

3:22 it's going to take a while i believe

3:31 okay

3:33 go to the extraction of the entire file

3:36 and the plan is once the extraction is

3:38 completed we're gonna follow along some

3:40 steps uh that are highlighted here

3:42 something similar here under the uh evg

3:45 how to uh page here but there are you

3:47 know

3:48 instructions for different kind of

3:49 appliances that you want to lose

3:51 and then we're going to follow almost

3:53 similar what we have here so there are

3:55 as you know vmx have two vms

3:58 one is the vcp which is the routing and

4:00 the other one is the farting plane the

4:02 via pvm

4:03 and uh those are the two dm and then so

4:05 you have to deploy both of those folder

4:07 okay

4:08 so uh we're gonna first uh

4:10 create it directly with our version

4:12 number

4:13 for each one i'm going to copy this

4:16 this one

4:20 looks like the

4:21 traction is still going because it's a

4:23 very heavy image so once we you know

4:25 create those two folders we're gonna put

4:28 those uh

4:29 q counter file from from each of those

4:32 images

4:33 their specific folder

4:34 and there are specific uh naming

4:37 convention you follow for uh the for the

4:40 files right past three format

4:44 folder okay

4:48 that's about what it is

4:53 links that's a pretty big

4:54 file i'm going to pause the video real

4:57 quick and then i'll come back when my

4:58 session is complete

5:00 okay looks like our extraction is

5:02 completed

5:03 see we have the folder here

5:06 i can give you up this uh vmx

5:08 random file

5:10 there's some storage

5:12 and there's my bmx now i have this uh

5:15 images under the images uh

5:17 locations okay so we're gonna

5:21 go to the

5:22 create those directories first okay

5:24 which is i'm going to copy

5:26 uh create the

5:28 bcp folder first

5:30 okay i'm going to give it a version

5:31 let's see we have to what i got here

5:33 we're doing 21.4

5:40 or

5:41 r1.12

5:44 okay

5:46 and

5:48 create the folder

5:50 and i'm going to do cp

5:57 and copy i'm going to change it

6:01 okay i'm going to change it to a version

6:04 here

6:10 [Music]

6:15 and this is going to be

6:18 under the images

6:21 the images and

6:23 [Music]

6:30 1.2

6:32 [Music]

6:34 it's pretty long

6:37 let's see if it works

6:40 oh it kind of didn't work

6:43 okay so

6:50 no such file of a directory

6:55 oh okay yeah i know what i mean

7:00 i only have some typo

7:03 bird

7:05 i o a

7:07 dot q

7:08 two

7:10 i wish they had this part there on the

7:11 web like that

7:14 what okay so it's gonna copy the file

7:19 and we're gonna do the same thing for

7:21 the uh so that's vcp

7:25 and there's a second file that is the

7:28 metadata

7:29 or what is that

7:31 bmx hdd okay

7:34 so let's do that

7:36 cp images dmx hddd

7:40 gonna choose the same directly

7:44 okay

7:45 i'll change the dot i o b

7:50 that is done

7:52 okay and oh there is

7:56 another one which is the metadata

8:00 okay

8:03 let's do that as well

8:06 p

8:07 and

8:10 so with the metadata usb so three images

8:18 count

8:20 e r e

8:27 okay

8:30 we're done with the

8:32 vcp and i'm going to the vfp

8:36 folder

8:46 [Music]

8:49 make sure you have the version right

8:52 at the development four

8:54 okay we create that

8:57 copy this

9:00 okay

9:01 and now this time you know let's go to

9:03 the image of directory it's better

9:06 tpe

9:08 uh via pc

9:14 the date

9:15 so uh there's only one looks like you'll

9:17 be a pc name with today of 2021 11 15 i

9:20 think that's probably totally listed

9:26 i'm gonna call it ioa

9:32 um

9:34 okay looks like this image a little bit

9:35 bigger

9:36 i should have just uh

9:40 take some time and then once uh it says

9:42 copied

9:44 uh to the directory we can

9:46 run this command the fixed permissions

9:49 command we basically uh place the

9:51 permissions on these folders and then

9:54 read the text so that will be those

9:55 images that will be discoverable

9:58 from the uh

9:59 okay

10:00 so looks like it's gonna take a while

10:03 i'm gonna do a quick pause again i'll

10:05 back once you're done

10:06 okay so it looks like uh our uh our copy

10:09 is done so now we can run this fixed

10:11 permission command

10:14 we're gonna have removing stuff but i

10:16 keep the images there for now

10:18 if you want you can follow that

10:21 okay this is going to run the fix

10:23 permission stuff

10:25 okay done so so looks like it's done

10:27 copying the images so i'm gonna then log

10:30 into the web gui which is through the uh

10:33 in this ip address that i have it can be

10:35 printed depending on the environment so

10:37 i'm just gonna log in

10:46 okay

10:47 so uh

10:49 when i'm just uh

10:51 close this lap i think it's open from

10:53 previous

10:55 video i'm just gonna

10:57 create a new one

10:59 new app just hit blank

11:01 vmx

11:03 demo i don't need to put anything here

11:05 now but you can put depending on your so

11:07 i have a description task name

11:10 um save

11:14 blank canvas here so i'm going to add an

11:18 object which is going to be my uh

11:21 node

11:22 it's going to be uh juniper

11:24 vmx there you go

11:26 [Music]

11:39 interfaces for

11:41 vm and i keep everything default

11:46 i think there's an image

11:48 mx here

11:50 icon

11:51 and you can change to something else if

11:52 you want

11:53 leave it default

11:55 nothing special here i'm going to click

11:56 on save

11:59 i'm going to drag it here

12:01 bcp vm and then add now the vfp

12:06 okay the same

12:08 way okay so that will be number

12:12 one

12:13 and then

12:16 i get uh

12:17 [Music]

12:23 but i'll keep that icon off pfe icon

12:26 that's better

12:28 and then uh

12:30 vip the max and dominique i believe it

12:31 said in the document 12 but i'm i don't

12:33 need that many i'm going to just choose

12:37 four and cpu and keep it default memory

12:40 default you can increase it depending on

12:42 your size of your environment but i will

12:44 keep default

12:46 uh everything else i'll keep the default

12:49 save

12:51 and then

12:52 i'm gonna connect this together to

12:54 direct link

12:57 okay

12:58 back to here

13:00 i'm gonna choose em1

13:03 involved

13:15 network

13:20 sorry

13:22 add an object

13:24 your network

13:26 let's give it a name

13:28 br ext which is our management network

13:33 and

13:34 i will choose cloud one so it's gonna be

13:36 all internal and you can find more about

13:38 different cloud networks uh that we just

13:40 could never bridge and internal to this

13:42 uh

13:44 evd or it could be tied to each one of

13:46 the uh evg server if you have one

13:50 i'm more on this

13:51 [Music]

13:55 and save it that seemed to work good for

13:57 me

13:59 okay

14:00 and i'm going to connect this

14:02 to

14:08 i'm going to choose vm0 fxp0

14:15 and we'll do the same thing here

14:19 okay em0

14:21 done

14:23 now

14:24 let's see

14:25 a little better

14:30 let me get it there

14:31 i'm going to add a linux server

14:34 add note i've witnessed

14:39 you know what i'll just do

14:41 yeah

14:44 that's gonna be

14:45 1024 mac

14:47 from cpu

14:49 public

14:50 [Music]

14:51 whatever

14:53 everything's simple

14:54 i want to make this fine for me

15:00 that

15:03 add that to this

15:06 okay

15:07 save

15:09 now i'm done right so my goal is to

15:11 basically being able to connect to these

15:13 vmx from this and see direct pc and all

15:16 that so that's where we know it's all

15:17 good i'm going to just go more actions

15:20 and start along those

15:22 go to the startup process

15:24 and that may take a while and i'm gonna

15:28 just gonna usually start in all of those

15:30 as this is recording right now

15:32 you take the uh vfp

15:36 right

15:37 so that's all starting

15:40 dns is also starting

15:43 so i'm going to pause the video and come

15:44 back when they're fully booted and i

15:46 will configure some ip on the vmx like a

15:48 basic ip address on fxp0 and see if i

15:50 can claim okay i'll be right back okay

15:54 so looks like our uh pcps are and vfp

15:58 all settled down after i built them as a

16:01 linux server and i i

16:04 configured the basic ip address on the

16:06 vrx

16:08 vcp

16:10 and uh on the linux server as well

16:12 so i'm just gonna

16:14 uh ssh to this

16:18 uh from the from linux server i'm gonna

16:19 suggest to the

16:21 once i'm logged into the bmx one okay so

16:23 i'm going to click on it

16:26 then

16:29 okay

16:31 so pass here pc i have got the as you

16:34 see the vfp games online that is good

16:37 communicating the f vip is communicating

16:40 with the vcp

16:42 and then show interfaces turners match

16:47 and

16:48 so i have fx p0 it's up uh on this ip

16:51 address okay and my linux server is on

16:53 172 25

16:55 11.254 i can pay it which is good

16:59 let me see if i can ssh to it from

17:00 linear server okay so i'm gonna bring it

17:02 up

17:17 okay that's a good sign so far

17:21 there you go let me switch to that to

17:23 this management network

17:25 so that's about it uh just as basic

17:27 development as it can be and then

17:29 hopefully they'll give you some starting

17:31 point

17:32 and

17:33 you know learn more about different

17:36 technologies ready to get bmx and
