Hi Ajeet,

I've moved your question to the ACI community space.

Which part are you having trouble downloading? Which browser are you using? Have you tried logging in first?

Thanks,

Adrienne

Hi Team,

Thank you for your prompt support, I have used IE, Mozila and Chrome to download PART 2, 3 4 but it's not working.

But I downloaded PART 1 without any issue.

Will wait for ACI team to resolve this problem.

BTW the activation portal is also not available, if you could pass on this info also to respective team then its great.

Regards,

Ajeet

Hi Team,

We can download all files now. Thanks you for Assistance.

But http://git.insieme.local/secure/generateActivationToken.py or http://172.23.137.25/secure/generateActivationToken.py

don't work.

Please can you help me to run APIC Simulator Activation Token Generator?

Thanks.

Hi Adrienne,

Thank you for your response.

Please, can you give us the real link to run Activation Token Generator because git.insieme.local or 172.23.137.25 refer to private network.

I think that this is a private tool. In this case, can you give us the email address of the entity which can generate these activations tokens for us.

Regards,

Camille.

Hi,

- Firstly, rename the files to

acisim-0.0-0.1a.ova.001

acisim-0.0-0.1a.ova.002

acisim-0.0-0.1a.ova.003

acisim-0.0-0.1a.ova.004

- Secondly, Open 7-Zip and go in the folder where thes files are found

- Lastly, Highlight acisim-0.0-0.1a.ova.001 file, Right click and select Combine.

Hi Ajeet,

I'm not sure about this, but as a partner, can you VPN in to Cisco? If not, then it looks like they have cut off external access to that url. Cisco is now offering a simulator "appliance", which uses a different ISO download. You should contact your Cisco rep about obtaining the appliance.

Dave

Hi Team,

Is it possible for you to generate an Activation Token for my key for below.

Please let me know if you could then I would share my key.

Regards,

Ajeet

davbark2 — Tue, 09 Aug 2016 01:47:57 GMT

Hi Ajeet,

If you can’t VPN in then it appears that Cisco has limited the software simulator to internal use only. Also, because the Activation Token is based on the Activation Challenge, which is derived from your IP and/or MAC, you cannot share that token.

I would suggest you contact your Cisco sales rep. and obtain the simulator appliance, which should be available externally.

Regards,

Dave

There are some challenges in making the tool available externally. We will notify you, when it becomes available.

While the API Key Generator is not publicly available, you can use any of the 3 ACI Sandbox labs - https://developer.cisco.com/site/aci/docs/resources/sandbox/

These sandboxes have real hardware you can run APIs against and configure.

thangsoft — Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:16:56 GMT

Can you please share the link to download Part 1 file.

amoherek — Tue, 23 Aug 2016 21:15:01 GMT

Hi Thanga,

The downloads have been removed from the site until the activation key is made publicly available. In the meantime, you can reserve an ACI lab in the Sandbox - https://developer.cisco.com/site/aci/docs/resources/sandbox/

Thanks,

Adrienne
