For example: /usr/bin/VBoxManage.įrom the left pane, select VirtualBox VMs, then click New. Then, in the Path to VBoxManage field, enter the location where you installed VBoxManage. Open the GNS3 application and create a new project.įrom the left pane of the Preferences dialog, select VirtualBox. Repeat steps 4 through 6 to create spine01.Make sure Full Clone is selected, then click Clone.Change the name of the VM to leaf02, then click Continue.
In the VirtualBox Manager window, right click the leaf01 VM, then select Clone.In the Appliance settings, change the name of the VM to leaf01, then click Import to begin the import process.Browse for the OVA disk image you downloaded, click the Open button, then click Continue.Open the VirtualBox application and select Import Appliance from the File menu.Cumulus VX requires at least 768MB of RAM and 6GB of disk space.ĬumulusVX versions 4.3 and later requires 2 vCPUs.įollow these steps for each VM (leaf01, leaf02, and spine01) The Cumulus VX OVA image defines the CPU, memory, and disk requirements. This section assumes you have VirtualBox and GNS3 experience. The following procedure creates leaf01, leaf02, and spine01 and the network connections between them. These steps were tested with Cumulus VX 4.2, VirtualBox version 6.1.12, and GNS3 version 2.2.11 on macOS version 10.14.6. Create three VMs (leaf01, leaf02, and spine01) and the network connections between them.To facilitate additional configuration after the initial setup descibed in this guide, leaf01 and leaf02 also have two connections to each other.
leaf01 and leaf02 connect to spine01, which is the aggregation layer switch on the network.
In the topology, leaf01 and leaf02 are the access layer switches on the network.
