While newer versions of IOS XRv exist, the 6.1.3 demo image remains popular due to its stability, relatively low resource consumption, and the fact that it doesn’t always require the complex licensing of newer 64-bit XRv9000 images.

Once the upgrade is complete or the fresh instance is running, you can SSH into the console or manage it via or REST APIs . The image is remarkably versatile:

You can leverage Model-Driven Programmability via gRPC or Netconf. iosxrvk9demo613qcow2 updated

: As a demo image, it is typically rate-limited (throughput often capped at ~2-10 Mbps) and lacks full hardware-accelerated data plane features. It is intended for control plane testing (BGP, OSPF, ISIS, MPLS) rather than performance benchmarking.

The 6.1.3 release brings a more stable foundation for the IOS XRv 9000 (often referred to as the XRv9K). Based on the same software used in Cisco’s ASR 9000 and NCS series, this update allows you to test: While newer versions of IOS XRv exist, the 6
