If you plan on running nested virtual routing tricks or features like Cisco CSR 1000V high availability (HA) with shared virtual MAC addresses, ensure that Promiscuous Mode and Forged Transmits are allowed on the corresponding vSwitch port groups.
Provide a name for your new virtual router. Then, select the downloaded .ova file from your local drive or a network share.
The is a single file package that contains the virtual machine's disk images (VMDKs), configuration files (OVF), and manifest files. It is the standard method for distributing pre-configured virtual appliances. cisco csr1000v ova
Step 5: Customize the Deployment (Optional Bootstrap Configuration)
2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 8 GB Disk space (Supports up to 5 Gbps). If you plan on running nested virtual routing
Edit the CSR 1000V VM settings in vSphere. Under the CPU and Memory dropdowns, select Reserve all guest memory and guarantee a 100% CPU reservation. Optimizing Network Adapters (VMXNET3 vs. SRIOV)
Map each virtual network adapter to its respective destination VMware vSwitch port group (e.g., Management, WAN, LAN, DMZ). The is a single file package that contains
