This lab is part of the INE CCIE R+S Lab.
However, the basics don't work. I create on my routers subinterfaces and on the switch I create appropiate trunks. When I try to ping my routers which do belong in the same vlan...the ping will fail. When I create the lab with IOSvL3 images, everything works.
I searched google and some folks had the same issue in 2015, but they used virtualbox and not vmware. Some hints mentioned, the router should use the vmxnet interface...but eve-ng already does this. Only the switch uses th e1000 nic.
Other people who had a solution to this, mapped the nics from the router to the ESXI vSwitch....but I don't use ESXI nor is my router directly to my "normal" network connected...it's nestet virtualization...so I'm clueless.
I do not want to use the IOSvL3 images, because INE uses CSR1000v .... any suggestions here ???
