CISCO AXP - PRETTY COOL

[maczen]

Just thought that you guys may want to take a peek at this.. Must watch the video to actually grasp what it is but the coolest thing is that you can download a VMWare image and run this platform! Pretty cool huh? Just take a peek!

Now I want to run this VMWare image (with the loopback configured) and see if I can make her talk to an emulated ISR via GNS3! Emulation meets Virtualization.. Gotta admit it's kinda cool! LoL

Another good link...

Unfortunately, GNS3 does not currently support any ISR routers so we may have to wait to toy around with these two together but AXP looks cool enough by itself! Especially if you feel like a little coding (Can also download the SDK for free) plus there are configuration guides etc. (Look for version 1.1)
