### Setup ESXi Hypervisor
|
||||
|
||||
1. In Skylab request a new ESXi hypervisor with 4 cores and 16 gb of RAM.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
2. Add a new dish with 50 gb of storage.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
>[!NOTE]
|
||||
>The hypervisor does not accept SSH connections yet, or incoming connections from the VPN Network.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Connect to the remote console of the ESXi hypervisor.
|
||||
1. Press F2 to login.
|
||||
2. Navigate to `Troubleshooting Options` → `Enable SSH`.
|
||||
3. Restart Management Agents (under "Restart Management Network").
|
||||
4. From within a reachable VM on the VPN Network, SSH into the ESXi Hypervisor. (e.g. first SSH into `192.168.1.10`, then from that session SSH into `192.168.1.5`)
|
||||
1. Enable incoming trafic from the VPN subnet: `esxcli network ip route ipv4 add --gateway=192.168.1.1 --network=10.0.0.0/24`
|
||||
2. Enable this on startup:
|
||||
1. `vi /etc/rc.local.d/local.sh`
|
||||
2. Add just before the final `exit 0` line: `esxcli network ip route ipv4 add --gateway=192.168.1.1 --network=10.0.0.0/24`
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can access the ESXi dashboard on `192.168.1.5` (or whatever the ip of the hypervisor is).
