Anyone seen this issue before and know how to fix ?

same problem even with XRv Full asr9000 version 6.3.2.... i can't login ,
for some reason it thinks i'm an "unknown" user or something like that.
please note that it does not ask me for a password... as soon as i type the
username, it comes back and says "Failed authentication attempt by user
'<unknown>' from 'console'..."

so i see this with xrv versions...

5.1.1
5.3.0
6.3.2

Just to circle back with all of you.... my problem with not being able to
login to XRv was just a terminal emulator issue. Windows Telnet window was
messing up the root account creation at the beginning when XR boots up and i
guess adding a special character and messing it up. On the eve-ng community
chat, a guy named Rusty was able to figure it out be just having me use a
different terminal ... putty and mtputty work fine...

Have you all been able to use EVE-NG ? My gosh, what an awesome emulator.



I have eve-ng running…



XRv

vMX

vQFX



(this might end up being a much larger topic) BTW, Why does Juniper do what appears to be such a better job with CP/FP (control plane/forwarding plane) separation ? I’m speaking about XR and Junos and also how clean Junos vMX seems to be done as I work with it in EVE-NG when compared to XRv.



XRv is still one node.



vMX is 2 nodes… VCP and VFP.



Also, in XRv I can’t add martini-type access pw’s into an l2vpn nor can I add routing on a BVI….. but, conversely I can do all those things in vMX



As nice as XR(v) is, it still seems to be playing catch-up to (v)MX. Is this true in your mind ?



Stepping away from the eve-ng emulator for a moment, over the years of working with XR I was so pleased with how it improved upon classic IOS…. But then I began working with Junos a few years ago, and wow, it seemed to take routing os to a whole other level than XR did… again, this could be in my head, but curious what others think, IF, you have actually done enough work on both platforms to know enough to speak to it.

Is that XRv or XRv9K?
XRv was great as it didn't require as many resources.
