Re: IOS XRv !!

Hi Joe

Correct

The youtube Video details how to do int on a Virtual Box on Windows.Im not
sure how to create a Serial Port so that you use that to Console into the
VMware.

Some guy posted that you need to Install Macports,Socat and Xcode for
 you to be able to have a serial port.

Will play around over the weekend.

I have downloaded Macports,Socat and Xcode
