WEBVTT 1 00:00.000 --> 00:07.040 So now we're up to the part where we have to actually load the images for the 2 00:07.040 --> 00:08.100 controllers 3 00:08.100 --> 00:10.360 into our CML environment. 4 00:10.360 --> 00:15.680 However, before we can do that, it would of course help if we actually had the 5 00:15.680 --> 00:16.360 images. 6 00:16.360 --> 00:20.280 So for this, we're going to go to Cisco, we're going to log in to our CCO 7 00:20.280 --> 00:21.000 account. 8 00:21.000 --> 00:24.960 Hopefully, you have a support contract because otherwise, you are not entitled 9 00:24.960 --> 00:26.320 to these images. 10 00:26.320 --> 00:30.460 In which case, I would suggest there is an option out there where you can get WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 10 00:26.320 --> 00:30.460 In which case, I would suggest there is an option out there where you can get 11 00:30.460 --> 00:31.360 some practice 12 00:31.360 --> 00:33.280 with SD-WAN. 13 00:33.280 --> 00:35.620 It's called Cisco D-Cloud. 14 00:35.620 --> 00:38.280 It's dcloud.cisco.com. 15 00:38.280 --> 00:41.800 And if you go there, they have a lot of demonstration environments where you 16 00:41.800 --> 00:42.720 can just use their 17 00:42.720 --> 00:45.380 environments to do some practicing. 18 00:45.380 --> 00:49.820 So as we move forward here, we are going to assume that you do have a CCO 19 00:49.820 --> 00:50.960 account with 20 00:50.960 --> 00:54.760 valid access to the SD-WAN images. 21 00:54.760 --> 00:58.360 So we'll start off by showing you where to go to get them, and then of course, 22 00:58.360 --> 00:58.680 how to 23 00:58.680 --> 01:02.880 upload them into our environment. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 23 00:58.680 --> 01:02.880 upload them into our environment. 24 01:02.880 --> 01:06.830 So I thought I'd start off here by giving a quick demonstration of how to get 25 01:06.830 --> 01:08.520 into D-Cloud. 26 01:08.520 --> 01:11.600 So I simply went to dcloud.cisco.com. 27 01:11.600 --> 01:15.810 I logged in and when you log in for the first time, it's going to ask you which 28 01:15.810 --> 01:16.520 data center 29 01:16.520 --> 01:18.240 you wish to use. 30 01:18.240 --> 01:21.840 You're of course going to want to choose the one closest to you. 31 01:21.840 --> 01:24.920 So in my case, that would simply be US East. 32 01:24.920 --> 01:26.160 So you click on that. 33 01:26.160 --> 01:28.560 We'll say to save the preference. 34 01:28.560 --> 01:31.760 Of course, we will have to accept the license agreement. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 34 01:28.560 --> 01:31.760 Of course, we will have to accept the license agreement. 35 01:31.760 --> 01:35.960 And then this will start us on the initial D-Cloud page. 36 01:35.960 --> 01:41.000 From here, we can do something like search for SD-WAN. 37 01:41.000 --> 01:46.150 And notice here that there are several different catalyst SD-WAN options that 38 01:46.150 --> 01:46.760 we can launch 39 01:46.760 --> 01:49.800 here and use for practice labs. 40 01:49.800 --> 01:51.760 Some of these you can launch live. 41 01:51.760 --> 01:54.000 Some of them do need to be scheduled. 42 01:54.000 --> 01:58.080 But this can be a great way to get some experience if you're not able to 43 01:58.080 --> 02:00.040 download your own images. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 43 01:58.080 --> 02:00.040 download your own images. 44 02:00.040 --> 02:05.020 However, if you do have access to the images, then you want to follow the URL 45 02:05.020 --> 02:06.120 listed above. 46 02:06.120 --> 02:08.400 That'll take you to this page. 47 02:08.400 --> 02:12.200 And from here, we can download the three different images that we will need. 48 02:12.200 --> 02:15.880 Of course, you're going to need the Vedge Cloud software. 49 02:15.880 --> 02:19.440 We're going to need this to run our V-bond. 50 02:19.440 --> 02:24.320 You can also, of course, if you want, use this as actual Vedge routers. 51 02:24.320 --> 02:26.640 We're not going to be doing that in this course. 52 02:26.640 --> 02:28.880 We're going to be using the 8000V. 53 02:28.880 --> 02:32.520 We may throw a Vedge in there on occasion just to see how it works. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 53 02:28.880 --> 02:32.520 We may throw a Vedge in there on occasion just to see how it works. 54 02:32.520 --> 02:36.560 But our main focus is going to be on the catalyst 8000V. 55 02:36.560 --> 02:40.680 Of course, you also want to download the VManage software that, of course, has 56 02:40.680 --> 02:42.840 its own page. 57 02:42.840 --> 02:46.120 And finally, the VSmart software. 58 02:46.120 --> 02:50.440 Also, I would recommend downloading one of the suggested releases. 59 02:50.440 --> 02:52.000 It's not exactly what we're using. 60 02:52.000 --> 02:55.560 I happen to have 20.10.1 that I'm using. 61 02:55.560 --> 03:00.120 However, you want to download probably one of the suggested releases. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 61 02:55.560 --> 03:00.120 However, you want to download probably one of the suggested releases. 62 03:00.120 --> 03:04.360 And then you want to make sure, if possible, that they're all consistent 63 03:04.360 --> 03:05.280 versions 64 03:05.280 --> 03:08.840 to make sure we don't have any interoperability problems. 65 03:08.840 --> 03:13.240 Once all of this is done and we have the images downloaded, 66 03:13.240 --> 03:18.560 the next thing we want to do is go over to CML and upload those images. 67 03:18.560 --> 03:22.640 So again, starting here from our lab, what we're going to want to do is go up 68 03:22.640 --> 03:22.880 here to 69 03:22.880 --> 03:27.800 Tools and go to Node and Image Definitions. 70 03:27.800 --> 03:33.280 From here, we'll go to Image Definitions and then we'll hit Manage. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 70 03:27.800 --> 03:33.280 From here, we'll go to Image Definitions and then we'll hit Manage. 71 03:33.280 --> 03:37.200 Manage is where we actually upload the new images. 72 03:37.200 --> 03:41.480 So here we can choose on the paperclip to browse to our images. 73 03:41.480 --> 03:45.360 Here I've already navigated to where I downloaded the images. 74 03:45.360 --> 03:50.200 We'll start with the VManage image because as you can see, it's considerably 75 03:50.200 --> 03:50.640 larger 76 03:50.640 --> 03:52.200 than the others. 77 03:52.200 --> 03:56.320 And with a file this size, we may run into an interesting problem. 78 03:56.320 --> 04:00.400 So let's go ahead and highlight that file and hit Open. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 78 03:56.320 --> 04:00.400 So let's go ahead and highlight that file and hit Open. 79 04:00.400 --> 04:05.580 We then of course choose to upload the image and it will begin uploading the 80 04:05.580 --> 04:05.840 file. 81 04:05.840 --> 04:08.040 Now again, this is a fairly long file. 82 04:08.040 --> 04:16.960 It will take just a moment, so let's just skip ahead to where the file is done 83 04:16.960 --> 04:18.760 uploading. 84 04:18.760 --> 04:25.480 So as we can see here, the file did complete uploading with no problem. 85 04:25.480 --> 04:29.480 Just so you're aware of the problem that you may have here, the interface can 86 04:29.480 --> 04:29.960 actually 87 04:29.960 --> 04:35.510 time out while you're doing the upload if that upload takes a little bit too WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 87 04:29.960 --> 04:35.510 time out while you're doing the upload if that upload takes a little bit too 88 04:35.510 --> 04:36.120 long. 89 04:36.120 --> 04:41.240 Once of the time, you simply log off, log back in, come back to the same page 90 04:41.240 --> 04:41.880 and the 91 04:41.880 --> 04:44.560 image will be listed here just fine. 92 04:44.560 --> 04:47.240 Otherwise you may have to upload it again. 93 04:47.240 --> 04:54.460 And worst case scenario, you can scp or secure copy that file over to the cml 94 04:54.460 --> 04:55.600 server. 95 04:55.600 --> 05:00.960 The necessary command for that is listed above if you need to do so. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 95 04:55.600 --> 05:00.960 The necessary command for that is listed above if you need to do so. 96 05:00.960 --> 05:04.110 But now that this is uploaded correctly, we can actually just go ahead and 97 05:04.110 --> 05:04.680 upload our 98 05:04.680 --> 05:08.440 next file so we can just choose the paperclip again. 99 05:08.440 --> 05:10.280 And we'll just work our way up my list here. 100 05:10.280 --> 05:12.640 We'll just do vsmart next. 101 05:12.640 --> 05:15.480 These are of course considerably smaller. 102 05:15.480 --> 05:20.970 Now one quick thing to note about these file names for V edge is notice we have 103 05:20.970 --> 05:21.560 an edge 104 05:21.560 --> 05:24.240 and a bond image. 105 05:24.240 --> 05:26.360 Also notice that they're exactly the same size. 106 05:26.360 --> 05:29.680 They're actually the same size as vsmart as well. 107 05:29.680 --> 05:31.080 But here's the thing. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 107 05:29.680 --> 05:31.080 But here's the thing. 108 05:31.080 --> 05:38.200 Cisco does not provide a bond image or a V bond image for download. 109 05:38.200 --> 05:44.000 That is simply a copy of the edge and I renamed it bond. 110 05:44.000 --> 05:47.440 As we go through this, hopefully you'll see why. 111 05:47.440 --> 05:51.280 But we're going to use two different node templates. 112 05:51.280 --> 05:54.600 One for the V bond and one for the V edge. 113 05:54.600 --> 05:57.480 And we want different parameters on those. 114 05:57.480 --> 06:02.270 This is one example, one of them we're going to put say six interfaces on where WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 114 05:57.480 --> 06:02.270 This is one example, one of them we're going to put say six interfaces on where 115 06:02.270 --> 06:02.720 V bond 116 06:02.720 --> 06:05.040 only needs two interfaces. 117 06:05.040 --> 06:06.520 Now you don't have to do that. 118 06:06.520 --> 06:08.000 It's completely optional. 119 06:08.000 --> 06:12.870 But if you want to, you are going to have to separate these images here, even 120 06:12.870 --> 06:13.200 though 121 06:13.200 --> 06:14.600 they're identical. 122 06:14.600 --> 06:18.280 And you'll see why as we progress through the rest of this skill. 123 06:18.280 --> 06:23.600 So for now, let's just upload both of these. 124 06:23.600 --> 06:27.360 So that takes here the V edge and finally we'll do the V bond. 125 06:27.360 --> 06:34.600 So now that we're done, we have all four files uploaded to the CML server. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000 125 06:27.360 --> 06:34.600 So now that we're done, we have all four files uploaded to the CML server. 126 06:34.600 --> 06:37.240 Now this is all we have to do at this point. 127 06:37.240 --> 06:42.000 Our next step is going to be to create the node definitions for the actual 128 06:42.000 --> 06:42.920 controllers 129 06:42.920 --> 06:44.080 themselves. 130 06:44.080 --> 06:45.920 So we'll do that in the next video.
