This section addresses how the SLX-OS
accesses the Third-Party Virtual Machine (TPVM).
Extreme SLX-OS devices support the provisioning of a Guest OS, referred to as TPVM or the
Third-Party Virtual Machine. Currently only one instance of the TPVM and one image for the
TPVM is provided. The Extreme SLX-OS will run the TVPM in Baremetal mode on these devices -
SLX 9540, SLX 9640, SLX 9150, and SLX 9250. The figure shows the baremetal mode and how
multiple operating systems are stacked. The table following the figure provides the platform
support details.
