Note

If you require independent virtual labs on a server, refer to Container installation (multiple vSLX labs).

The vSLX host distribution package contains the software components required to virtualize supported SLX devices on a x86 server.

  1. Enter the dpkg command to install the vSLX Debian package on the host.
    user@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg -i /slxos-dist/vslx_2.0.0.deb
  2. Run the postinst-setup.sh utility to install the dependent packages and configure system files.
    user@ubuntu:~$ /VM/postinst-setup.sh

After successful installation, refer to Up-and-running example.
