Connecting bare install to Eve Nodes

Post by namekman » Thu Sep 14, 2017 7:46 pm

I looked around the forums but I didn't see anything that seemed to cover my case. I have a bare install of eve on a dell R710. 72 GB ram dual quad core processors. I'd like to connect to the management port of ASAs and Palos for ASDM and stuff like that. Most of the instructions seem to cover VM installs and I'm wondering how to go about this with a bare install. It's not clear to me what bridge and cloud and those types of networks are fo.

you can connect all your eve nodes management to cloud0
IP assign from your subnet where eve management IP reside....
GW for nodes will be same like your bare eve GW

you will have access to mgmnt like you access to eve web ui...
Very simple

In this example is shown typical Bare EVE installation lab with connected nodes to external network for management..
Management LAN is your home LAN, my case it is 192.168.97.0/24

EVE WEB UI IIP 192.168.97.100

And in the picture you see that noes which I need to manaage externally from my PC are connected to the Cloud (Cloud0).

GW for EVE itself, or any node connected to Cloud0 has same GW. my real external device 192.168.97.1.
All FTD are connected to Mnt97 (Cloud0).
Same cloud (Cloud0) on topology, can be added more times. In present topology you see another cloud Mnt97 (Cloud0). It is the same Cloud0 (home LAN 192.168.97.0/24) just added on topology x2 times. It is for better Lab looking, but logically all nodes which I need to manage from external PC are connected to Cloud0.

FMC IP addressing is, 192.168.97.111
FTD-1 192.168.97.11
FTD-2 192.168.97.12
FTD-b 192.168.97.13
AD/DNS/CA server 192.168.97.110

And same GW is for all nodes, home external router with IP 192.168.97.1.

I hope it will clear a bit how to manage EVE nodes in bare installed EVE from external PC.
