The vqfx-20.2r1.10-re-qemu.qcow2 image is an invaluable tool for network engineers looking to gain hands-on experience with Juniper's powerful QFX series. By separating the control and data planes, it provides a realistic simulation environment for advanced topics like EVPN-VXLAN and data center automation.
In the KVM environment, you must define multiple virtual network interfaces:
If you plan to upgrade, note that 20.2r1.10 uses an older partition layout. Upgrading to 21.4 or 22.2 may require a fresh installation rather than a simple request system software add . Always read the release notes for vqfx specifically (not physical QFX).
Add one vqfxre node and one vqfxpfe node to your topology canvas.
