External Connectivity

The External Connector node (ext-conn) can be used to connect one or more simulation nodes to a network outside of the CML virtual environment. This connector can be configured as a Bridge or NAT device. To reduce complexity and overhead, the external connector node provides a single interface for connectivity.

Prerequisite

Before using the external-connector with your CML labs, ensure that you have configured the required settings for your CML server. See the appropriate page for your deployment type, and check any settings related to external connectivity:

• Deploying the OVA on ESXi Server

• Bare Metal Installation
