Unable to bring up the EOS neighboring Devices in testbed vs-setup

[Karthik V]

Hi all,

I am trying to bring up the sonic-testbed to run the pytest scripts using the following document:
https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-mgmt/blob/master/docs/testbed/README.testbed.VsSetup.md

SONiC is Active and I can login into it using SSH. But, when I check bgp summary using the command "show ip bgp sum" the neighboring Arista ceos devices are never up. Could anyone please help me with solving this? Thanks, and Regards,

Karthik V

Hi Karthik,

Did you run the step of deploying minigraph?  sonic-mgmt/docs/testbed/README.testbed.VsSetup.md at master · sonic-net/sonic-mgmt (github.com)

Further steps to debug:

* Check if the "ceos" containers are up and running on your test server? 

* Check if the portchannels are up on SONiC using command like "show interface status"

* Ping the BGP neighbors from SONiC.

Thanks,

Xin Wang
