Iosxrv-k9-demo-5.2.2.ova
The iosxrv-k9-demo-5.2.2.ova is a virtual appliance file for the Cisco IOS XRv Router, a virtualized platform designed to run the 32-bit Cisco IOS XR software on the QNX microkernel. As a "demo" version, it is specifically intended for training, familiarization, and early field trials (EFT) of control plane features. Core Technical Specifications
Supported Features:
- All standard routing protocols (OSPF, ISIS, BGP, EIGRP – yes, IOS XR runs EIGRP for odd enterprise-migration labs).
- MPLS, LDP, RSVP-TE, L3VPN, L2VPN (AToM, VPLS).
- Multicast (PIM-SM, MSDP).
- Segment Routing (early support – basic SR-MPLS).
- NETCONF, RESTCONF (limited), SNMP, XML interfaces.
- IPv6 – fully featured.
Hardware Emulation: It does not support hardware-specific features found on physical ASR 9000 series routers, such as specific ASIC-level queuing or high-density interface stats. iosxrv-k9-demo-5.2.2.ova

- Ensure your hypervisor supports OVA import (VMware Workstation/ESXi, VirtualBox with OVA import, or a compatible solution).
- Allocate appropriate resources: at least several vCPUs, 8+ GB RAM (adjust by release recommendations), and sufficient disk space.
