Are You Familiar with the IOS XE Operating System?
Here at Cisco, we are creating these exciting challenges for the Networking and Developer Community for them to:
Build your "Accepted Solutions" badge count by completing the entire challenge!
Overview
The Challenge is broken into 3 parts, each more difficult than the last. Each part has 2 tasks for a total of 6 tasks. All tasks will be performed on IOS XE running on the Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V in a free DevNet Always-On sandbox.
WALK (GUI)
RUN (CLI)
FLY (Guest Shell)
Environment / Router / OS
No VPN is needed, only an Internet connection with browser, and a Command Line Interface / Terminal. A Cisco account is required to access the sandbox.You will use the free DevNet sandbox: IOS XE on CSR Recommended Code Always On <-- go here or search the Sandbox Catalog
Credentials
WALK
Task 1: Change the Banner You See on sandbox-iosxe-recomm-1.cisco.com
(I couldn’t access the GUI via Chrome so I used Firefox instead)
I changed it to ‘Powered by Mountain Dew!!!’ Change it, then take a screenshot and post it.
Task 2: Create a New Logical Interface and in the Description add your Cisco Community username. Take a screenshot and post it.
RUN
Task 3: Find the Command Line Interface in the Dashboard and run a command to show ONLY the status of ONLY the Loopback interfaces.
Task 4: Enable IOx. Then, display the status of the IOx service and take a screenshot of the printout. For bonus points, how would you do this without the CLI described in step 3? (HINT: one of the DevNet Learning Labs describes how to do this).
FLY
Task 5: Enable the Guest Shell (Not on the GUI CLI) on the IOS XE on CSR Recommended Code Always On sandbox. Verify the status of the Guest Shell and take a screenshot of the printout. It will look something like this:
Task 6: Use On-Box Python (Python interpreter installed inside the Guest Shell) to change the Description of the Logical/Loopback Interface you created in Task 2 to “Python Rules!”. Take a screenshot.
Post Your Results Here
The First Person, or Bot, Who Completes ALL 6 Tasks (Correctly) Will Be Recognized!
