EVE-NG

This section describes installation of the Ostinato for EVE-NG labbing appliance.

If you are installing Ostinato on a native system (Windows, macOS, or Linux), see the corresponding platform sections instead.

Installation

To install (one-time only) -

  1. scp ostinato-lab-eve-ng-<VERSION>.tgz to /tmp on the EVE-NG server
  2. ssh to the EVE-NG server and install it (as root) -
cd /tmp
tar zxvf ostinato-lab-eve-ng-<VERSION>.tgz
cd ostinato-lab-eve-ng-<VERSION>
./install.sh

Make sure the install script finishes with: 

Successfully installed Ostinato (Lab)`

Usage

To use the Ostinato (Lab) node in a EVE-NG lab -

  1. Add a Ostinato (Lab) node (not the Ostinato node which is a legacy unsupported node) to the lab
  2. Start the Ostinato node
  3. Double-click the node to open the Ostinato GUI in your VNC client

Multiple Ostinato nodes

You don't need multiple Ostinato nodes in a lab. You can connect links from a single Ostinato node to all the other nodes in a lab.
