eNSP Virtual Machine

Each eNSP virtual machine occupies resources. The number of virtual


machines supported by computers varies according to the computer
configuration. "n" in the table indicates increased memory size. When
extended edition is used, the number of supported devices can be increased
by increasing memory.

Simulates the networks containing up to 200 devices in multi-node edition.

Benefits

Makes teaching easier by providing a free,


multiuser environment for instructors to easily
teach complex technical concepts
Makes learning easier by providing a realistic
simulation and visualization environment for
exploration, experimentation and explanation
Instructors and students can create their own
virtual network worlds for teaching and learning
networking concepts and technologies

Ordering Information

eNSP is free and open to public. Users can download and install it without applying for the
license.

and technical personnel.

Summary
eNSP is a powerful network simulation program that allows
students to experiment with network behavior and ask what if
questions
Makes teaching and learning networking technology easier
Not intended to replace experiences with real equipment, but
rather to complement them.
A laboratory for teaching and learning; you can experiment, you
can create your own virtual network world
Helps students develop 21st century skills such as decision making,
creative and critical thinking, and problem solving
