vEdge Cloud not see/up on vManage

[MrRED]

Hey!

I have successfully implemented Viptela lab on ESXi environment with: 1 vManage, 1vBond, 2 vSmart, which communicates on VPN0 tunnel, and Linux CA (openssl) to sign certificates. I can see them on vManage.

When I want to add a vEdge, I have configured network basically, the clock, the tunnel is up and now it can ping vManage.

Unfortunately, I cannot see it on Web Management> Configuration> Devices> * EMPTY *.

I am unable to found uuid / token of vEdge to add them which command, « request vedge-cloud activate chassis-number … »

If someone meets some problem similar

You need smart account on PnP portal software.cisco.com with Virtual Account and controller profiles defined.
Here is more about Smart Accounts:

And here you can find more about PnP actually: https://sdwan-docs.cisco.com/Product_Documentation/Getting_Started/Plug_and_Play_Support_Guide_for_Cisco_SD-WAN_Products

Do it work if my lab do not have connection with Cisco server / PnP?

Yes, it will work, but then you need to upload provisioning file (serialFile.viptela) manually to the vManage once downloaded from PNP portal.

Ok I do not really know how to do all this yet. Still Learning. I created the controller profile for vbond in my smart account. Then I go to add device (vedge) and it wants serial number and PID....Where do you find the serial number? Did I miss a step here?
