Question on DNAC 2.x installation

[AncientOne]

Have anybody successfully deploy this in a VM ? Any license installation required ?

For this VM, you need approx 96 GB RAM + 64 to 88 vCPU + 1 HDD of 700gb.

You don't need license, if you can install will work. You will need ISE and physical switches.

theres a version that accepts 48 vcpu

I tried DNA-C v2.1.2.7 with 48 vCPU and 256GB RAM on ESXi 7.0 . The more vCPU the better the performance.

Newer versions are more stable.

Managed to get it running on a ThinkPad Laptop wit 128GB RAM, 2TB NVME wit 8 Cores. Takes a bit longer but running fine as a VM on VMware workstation.

Please, provide the link to the type of your Lenovo ThinkPad laptop.
