Cisco Nexus Configuration in GNS3

First, we need to download the GNS3  and the images of Nexus  and routers in GNS3 from the internet

We will choose the nexus images as well

Nexus will take a while to download, login and password are admin , admin

We will verify the interfaces, we see they are shut down 

now let's rename the nexus and see the neighbors

Nexus status

R1 configuration
 

R2 configuration

Nexus configuration

Setting the route so we can ping

as you cann see we added the ip addresses oif the two routers  to the Nexus

The routers can noty ping each otyher: they are in different subnet.We will use ospf in BOTH routers

in nexus we will see the resulty...with "show running config" command

config of R1 in nexus

config of r2 in nexux and checking the ospf neighbor relationship

we will check on R1 , if this was loading the neighbor and eventually we will create the loopback on r1 and we will check if this was available on the nexus

Now we will create a loopback in R1 and we will ping from the nexus switch..we will eventually ping the loopback we will create

Now we will check if we can ping the loopback from the other router in R1

Now from R2 we will do the same

we will verify in nexus

show feature command

show run command

OSPF verification

This lab was done! and we verified all the information.
