Where are you trying this Image, esxi ? or any other simulator.

You need SD-WAN Image,

Pnetlab...I have  downloaded this one of the links which they simulated 

[balaji.bandi]

yes it works as expected.

[R Manjunatha]

no, I tried a couple of times attached image is getting invalid command if I tried the "system" configuration.

this image does not even ask for the user name and password initial boot.

[balaji.bandi]

Once boot post show version. ( did you get the image from cisco  site or downloaded from google.)

[R Manjunatha]

downloaded from google...since I don't have a cisco partner account to download the images. 

[balaji.bandi]

when you boot with this image, what is show version show ( google images may be renamed version) but still old images.

[R Manjunatha]

I have attached the initial boot device show version details for your reference

Hi,

this is definitely not SD-WAN image.

First of all, traditional "conf t" should not work in SD-WAN image and there is no SD-WAN image for 15.x releases.

You either need to download 16.x version from IOS XE SD-WAN series OR 17.2.x and later from IOS XE series.

Note that, after 17.2 (and including 17.2), there is only one universal image which can be used for traditional router deployment or for

SD-WAN. You need to enable controller mode, if you want to run it in SD-WAN.

HTH,

[R Manjunatha]

yes....but I don't have a service contract with cisco 

Service Contract Required

To Download this software, you must have a valid service contract associated to your Cisco.com profile.

If you do not have a service contract you can get one through:

• Your Cisco Account Team if you have a direct purchase agreement with Cisco
• Your Cisco Partner or Reseller

[balaji.bandi]

You have 2 options

if you have any cisco partner who help you to get image,

google or ask forums (not cisco) other emulator/simulator forums, people may share with you.

Over weekend i had access to my Lab :

here is my setup PNET Lab i am using

I have downloaded the image name - csr1000v-ucmk9.16.12.1b-serial.qcow2 ( google can provide where to download) since you do not have access to Cisco ( for Lab i believe its ok for testing)

it boots as expected :

Hope this information help you.

[R Manjunatha]

yes...I got the same as per your instruction and now it's working on some other version of the image which I downloaded.

Thanks for the update 

[balaji.bandi]
