The document discusses using Ixia's IxVM virtual machine for network testing in Cisco's Modeling Lab (CML) virtual environment. Specifically:
- IxVM is a virtual machine version of Ixia's network testing hardware that runs on Linux. Its OVA file can be added to CML.
- The OVA file contains disk files that are extracted and registered with CML's OpenStack environment to launch the IxVM VM.
- Example shows configuring a router and IxVM VMs in CML, and using IxNetwork software to generate OSPF traffic between the VMs and router ports for testing.
