How to Import the BIG-IP-F5 in EVE-NG

In this lab, first go to the BIG-IP F5 website for a 30 day trial version and create an account.  The url: https://f5.com/trials/big-ip-virtual-edition.  The compatible image for EVE-NG will be the BIG-IP VE image; I used BIGIP-17.1.0-0.0.16.LTM.qcow2.zip.  Accept the license agreement and proceed as follows:

  • Download image .zip file
  • Extract image BIGIP-17.1.0-0.0.16.qcow2
  • Go to EVE-NG CLI
  • mkdir /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/bigip-17.1.0-0.0.16
  • Open Filezilla
  •  On the remote panel –> /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/bigip-17.1.0-0.0.16
  • From the local panel drag-and-drop BIGIP-17.1.0-0.0.16.qcow2 image
  • Rename image to virtioa.qcow2
  • Run /opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions

The next lab we will configure the topology shown below.
