Hello,
So I'm currently trying to run some Cisco csr1000v and N9K nodes, followed the documentation instructions for each. Installation went pretty smooth however, when attempting to power on either the csr1000 (tried several of them too) or the N9K they'll start and a few seconds later they'll turn off again.
I'm currently running a Ryzen 7 2700X CPU and I've read somewhere that AMD CPUs had issues with nested virtualization, can that be related to this? I'm not getting this issues with vIOS and 7206 images.
Thanks and regards!

Re: Cisco csr1000v and N9K issues
I've got the same problem. The CSR1000v just wont even start up.
csr1000vng-universalk9.16.2.2-ext.qcow2
csr1000vng-universalk9.16.06.05.Everest.qcow2
csr1000v-universalk9.03.17.00.S.156-1.S-ext.qcow2
I've tried these and none of them worked.
Any suggestions?

Re: Cisco csr1000v and N9K issues
you must take ready to use kvm images which has word serial in the filename
then they will work with telnet console..

Pay attention to the original filename !
example:
csr1000v-ucmk9.16.12.1b-serial.qcow2
Best way is to install from ISO...
I dontt know wgere you got those images, but it looks not ok

Re: Cisco csr1000v and N9K issues
Thank you for the reply.
Is there a way how to get proper ISO versions, as you suggest? I've tried googling, but these aren't available for free anymore for labbing purposes.
I'll be happy with any solution to get my lab running with CSRs, or am open to any other suggestions.
My current setup:
AMD Ryzen 3900x
32GB RAM (will upgrade to at least 64)
VM Workstation Pro 15.5.2
Eve-NG
