VNX Project Documentation

VNX (Virtualization over X) is the new release of the VNUML tool. VNX brings important new functionalities that overcome the most important limitations VNUML tool has:

  • Integration of new virtualization platforms to allow virtual machines running other operating systems (Windows, FreeBSD, etc) apart from Linux. In this sense:

    • Integrates Dynamips to allow limited emulation of CISCO routers
  • Restart of individual virtual machines
  • Autoconfiguration and command execution capabilities for several operating systems: Linux, FreeBSD and Windows (XP and 7).
