When finished configuring the router properties, click Next. The Ready to Complete screen displays, showing the settings
to be used when the OVA is deployed.
You can also configure advanced properties after the router boots.
Step 10 Select Power on after deployment to automatically power on the VM.
Step 11 Click Finish to deploy the OVA.
The OVA deploys the .iso file and, if the "Power on after deployment" setting is selected, automatically powers on the
VM. Once the VM is powered on, the Cisco CSR 1000v begins the installation and boot process. If a bootstrap
configuration file was included in the OVA, the router configuration will automatically be enabled.

Editing the Basic Properties of Cisco CSR 1000v using vSphere

Note
When deploying the OVA template, you have the option to set basic router properties using the vSphere GUI
prior to booting, as described in
76. You can also set custom properties matched to Cisco IOS XE CLI commands. See
Properties of Cisco CSR 1000v using vSphere, on page
The functionality described in this chapter works only when using the vSphere GUI to connect to a vCenter
server. If connecting directly to a host, these options are not available.
If the VM was manually created from the .iso file, then the vSphere GUI will not provide options to set basic
router properties. However, you can still set custom properties as described in
