NOTE: Read the networking section below, before you deploy the Catalyst 9800! Failure to do so may cause you to inadvertently create a network loop that will bring down the VM Host and/or the attached network. At the very least, I hope it gets more consistent between platforms. The process may differ with newer versions. I’ll try to cover all the bases from my experience with deploying the Cisco Catalyst 9800-CL Virtual Wireless Controller (which is why this is such a long post).Įverything here is in reference to IOS-XE 16.12.1. However, it is possible to successfully deploy the 9800 in several versions of ESXi, as well as vCenter.

The deployment process is wildly different between different versions of ESXi, or with vCenter. This has never been more true than it is with the 9800. However, Cisco does not excel at developing OVA packages that work well in different environments. I promise it really is simple if you follow the process I’ve outlined below. I will be writing another post to cover configuring WLANs, go over the new configuration model, and best practices.įirst off, don’t let the length of this post scare you.

The intent of this post is to get your Catalyst 9800-CL online with a trunked network interface.
