Cisco AXP Emulation using VMware
The Cisco AXP platform can run as a virtual appliance under VMware. You can use th
which runs under multiple x86 operating systems, to run your application and Cisco AXP infrastructure 
add-on packages. The virtual appliance package emulates the Cisco AXP application service module 
NME-APPRE-302-K9 by default, providing two Ethernet ports attached to the same L2 (virtual) 
network.
Note
Emulation of the NME-APPRE-302-K9 service module uses up to a maximum of 10 GB disk space. (The 
real NME-APPRE-302-K9 service module has up to 80 GB disk space available.)
Note
Applications that are packaged to run on a Cisco Application Service Module cannot also be run under 
VMware.
