eve-ng on vmware workstation

Post by belowzero273 » Mon Apr 24, 2017 1:56 pm

I'm running eve-ng in VMware workstation 12. Everything installed as in how-tos, but when I access my lab and trying to add node - everything is grayed out except for VPCS. I've added several images - mikrotik and cisco, but nothing helps. Intel VT-x is turned on.

maybe you have forgot to generate the licence for cisco and to fix the permitions, plus a restart of VM after all
nope, doesn't help

I can't add the node. I select my lab, click add a node and in the dropdown list where I suppose to select a template every option is grayed out, so I can't select any. Only working option is Virtual PC (VPCS).

ohhh check 2 things

1- eve-ng don´t include images so u have to get those from other sources
2- the naming folders of images from here http://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/documen ... ages-table

you simply do not follow how to add images.
It makes sense images to be placed in proper named folders and prepared as well.
Greyed out, means EVE does not read your image foldername.
