Hello Jeffrey, For Home Lab practices , can I install this on VMware workstation Pro over my laptop , which have 1 Corei7 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz 3.00 GHz , 32GB Memory , I have 2 Physicals 1GB Network Uplinks , 1x physical router supporting return routes, 1x Virtual router , 2 SSD Disks 1 of them 500GB SSD ? OR that need 1 Physical Server ? also can you please share the minimum requirements (Compute, Storage, Networking... ) for this NSX Configuration.. Thank you
Many thanks for this video. Two questions please 1) did you need to config static routes on your home physical router to route from network 192 to network 10 ? 2) what is purpose of jump server and how is it being used
Thank you for the video, do you think that with a Supermicro E300-8D, 4 Core, and 64-128 RAM., could make these lab or it is necessary to have 8 Core. for a a fully nested
Hi Alejandro. I see my CPU under quite a bit of stress but that’s mainly because I also enabled Workload Management (I.e. Kubernetes on vSphere). Keep in mind NSX-T can be resource heavy. I would definitely try to get a bit more juice but that’s up to you of course! Good luck
Hello, I follow you from France, thank you for these tutorials, not very long, which allows not to lose network novices like me along the way. The only downside is the sound, but hey, you can't have it all. However, it would be interesting to do a little tutorial on how you configure your VyOS router (s). Thank you again and to the next videos. Subscriber word !
Thanks for the feedback. I upgraded my setup so hopefully the sound quality is better now. Great idea about a VyOS lab tutorial. I’ll put that on my backlog for sure 👍
Hey Jeffrey thank you for sharing this video. This video is really helpful for setup nested lab. One doubt I have configured my lab as same as shared in the video. However my virtual ESXi is not able to reach the internet. Should i have to do some additional configuration to allow the internet to my nested environment ?
Hi Jeff, what is the version of your VyOS? mtu of 9000 is not supported on my vyos-rolling-latest 1.4. ...When I commit I get this error "Interface MTU too high, maximum supported MTU is 1500!" Thanks
Thanks for sharing, however there is not enough detail about the network, you are showing us what you have already done, rather than going through step by step, yes I can see what you have done but how did you do it?
Thanks. I might do a rebuild of my homelab in the near future and will definitely use that opportunity to record a new set of videos on how I’m doing this step by step. Stay tuned!
Ashutosh Deshpande I recommend checking out tinkertry.com/superservers. It contains a ton of information on these Supermicro servers. I’ve got the SYS-5028D-TN4T with 128GB RAM. I put Samsung 960 Pro and Samsung 850 EVO SSDs in it for storage.
