>- There will be significant troubleshooting portion, but I don't expect a dedicated section on it. The reason why is that IOS XR can't, to the best of my knowledge, be virtualized. Dedicated TS section would require >two hardware pods per student and that's unrealistic. If they focus troubleshooting only on IOS virtualized in IOU, half of the blueprint is off the troubleshooting section, as it cannot be properly emulated.

I don't pretend to know all the differences between IOS XE and IOS XR, but XE can run multiple stacks of the same IOS and do ISSU / failover between. If the underlying OS is a *nix variant, what would stop them from virtualizing the hardware further creating an IOU environment for that?
