WEB – admin/eve
Q: How to connect multiple nodes to the same network?
A: Add a network object to the lab topology and connect multiple nodes to it.
Q: What is CPU Limit Status?
A: It’s limiting CPU overload per node, but it does not involve common CPU utilization.
Q: My IOL nodes lost configuration in the NVRAM after upgrading to v2.0.3-53, what should I do?
A: Correct, if lab was created before version v2.0.2-23, IOL used old code with bugs which was fixed in later releases. new Version need re run node which will create new NVRAM for your IOL. Solution to keep your configurations: The best way if you have exported those configuration using export cfg feature. Then you can boot node after NVRAM wipe with your configuration in the new version of EVE.
