EVE-NG bare metal limitations

Post by margaretobry » Mon Jan 19, 2026 10:05 am

Hello,
I'm currently pursuing my HPE and Juniper Networks certifications, and I've found that Junos VMs can run within the EVE-NG bare-metal deployment. I wiped my Proxmox server and installed the community edition on my bare-metal server. I also want to use the underlying Ubuntu server for other applications. I installed Docker, but I faced issues with running Portainer.

Does the EVE-NG distribution limit the use of the underlying operating system for other applications?

Are there any configurations or limitations regarding web sockets?

You can't use docker on Community Edition, only Pro has it. Also installing 3rd party packages/apps etc etc will mess your Eve.
