How do I add a device with no authentication

[Q5]

Hi guys

I am looking at using a network emulator and virtual devices (ex: EveNG or GNS3 or VIRL) and in these cases the devices could be accessed via a console port that can be accessed via telnet IP:Port where the IP is 127.0.0.1 and the port is allocated by the emulator. There is no authentication for these devices

How does NSO handle these devices? How do I configure the authentication for these devices?

Thank you

hi

i would try something like this 

device test {

address 10.1.1.2;

port 13000;

location {

name virl;

}

authgroup default;

device-type {

cli {

ned-id cisco-ios;

protocol telnet;

}

}

ned-settings {

cisco-ios {

proxy {

remote-connection serial;

remote-address 10.1.1.1;

remote-port 13000;

}

}

}

}

you may not need the proxy/remote port stuff

also my be worth creating a customer auth group where you don't specify a user mapping 

not the complete answer but should be in the right sort of direction i think

Thanks

Thanks for the reply Yale

After posting I did some more research and my conclusion was that I can't and I should not use the NEDs in the free demo for this. That NED that comes with the free version is old and it lacks most of the options that come after ned-settings. I do not have any of the below options. I learned that they exist from someone who tried to help me.
