: Runs Cisco IOS XE 17.12.1 , providing access to advanced features like SD-Access, EVPN-VXLAN, and model-driven programmability.
: Provided as a .qcow2 file, which is the standard format for QEMU-based hypervisors. download cat9kv-prd-17.12.01prd9.qcow2
The (Cat9kv) allows engineers to simulate the dataplane ASICs found in physical Catalyst hardware using a virtualized environment. It is primarily distributed as part of the Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) package. : Runs Cisco IOS XE 17
: Can emulate different board types, including UADP (Unified Access Data Plane) and Silicon One Q200 . System Requirements for cat9kv-prd-17.12.01prd9.qcow2 : Runs Cisco IOS XE 17.12.1
Because this image emulates complex hardware ASICs, it is resource-intensive compared to older virtual routers. Cisco CAT IOS-XE 9000v - GNS3
