configuration syntax for seamless lab-to-production transitions. Deployment:

QEMU requires the primary hard drive file to be named exactly virtioa.qcow2 . Rename the file using the following command: iosxrvk9demo613qcow2 exclusive

It is highly stable for control-plane simulations (BGP, OSPF). Limitations: | For learning fundamental IOS XR commands and

| Platform | exclusive meaning | |----------|---------------------| | | “Exclusive” flag in QEMU VM settings → prevents snapshot corruption by locking the disk image. | | EVE-NG | Exclusive mode = image is not shared across labs; each lab gets its own writable copy. | | Manual QEMU | -drive file=...,locking=exclusive (rare) to force file locking on raw/qcow2. | iosxrvk9demo613qcow2 exclusive

For learning fundamental IOS XR commands and testing your network automation scripts, this demo image is invaluable. For production routing, you will need to upgrade the demo license to a full production license to remove the 200 Kbps throughput cap.
