Do I need CML to run nuVML?
NuVML can run stand-alone for production, but if you need virtual networks you need CML.
What is the difference between CML and nuVML?
They are two separate products with no relationship, nuVML is a visualization product and CML is a virtualization product.
Why would I use nuVML?
It is the only tool in the market that allows you to go inside the DNA and topology of the logical network.
What is the benefit of nuVML?
Abstract virtual logical visualization of relationships between devices and simulated devices, such as routing protocols andvirtual connections, as they see them in the real production environment.
Where would nuVML be used?
Can be used either in production or the lab for planning and designing networks, preparing low level design and high level design for customer, providing proof of concept network validation, side by side verification between production
and simulation, educational purposes, and risk reducing for a major failure.
Can I achieve the same functionality in nuVML without CML?
No, CML is required for simulation purposes.
What OS does nuVML runs on?
Exclusively on Microsoft platform.
Does nuPSYS sell CML or VIRL?
No, they have to be acquired directly from Cisco.

What are the limitations of nuVML?
Can I connect my nuVML into the production network and simulation network at the same time?
Yes, for this you need to create a connector to the production and to the simulation.
What is the difference between nuVML and GNS3?
NuVML and GNS3 are two separate products and cannot be compared when it comes to usage: GNS3 is freeware simulation and design tool and nuVML is visualization tool that can be connected to GNS3 or production network at the same
time, also nuVML is fully integrated into CML and VIRL but GNS3 is not.
Who uses nuVML?
Large Enterprise customers, service providers, mobile providers, data center management, network operation center administrators, network architects, instructors and course material builders.
Do we have educational version of nuVML?
No we do not because is a corporate product, but smaller user license is 10 users.
What types of levels are supported?
Layer 1 to layer 7 using a sniffer module or nbar functionality.
Can nuVML visualize routing protocols?
All routing protocols can be visualized.
Can nuVML visualize real time traffic?
NuVML 2d or NuVML 3d, why?
2d has limitation to see virtual network topology while 3d has full visibility.
Can we use multi-vendor for nuVML?
Absolutely, nuVML has no restrictions on visualization of vendor.
What type of images can we visualize?
Any images that can be used in CML or VIRL.
Can we import/export Visio drawings into nuVML?
Can nuVML support Discovery?
Yes, it does, multi-vendor.
Can I get a trial copy?
Need to contact sales support to request.
How do I purchase it?
Using credit card or contacting sales support.
Can nuVML be used for production network?
Can nuVML be connected to production?
Can 3rd party virtual machines be run on nuVML?
Can we visualize nuVML or VIRL topology?
Yes we support all Cisco product files.
Can we import configuration files from routers to nuVML for simulation?
Yes, importing allows visualization and simulation without Discovery in offline mode.
How can I get training on nuVML?
Through online documentation and forums.
Can I purchase from channel partner?
Yes, please consult with sales support.
Does nuVML work with GNS3?
Yes, we can see inside virtualization but cannot control it.
Does nuVML support sniffer visualization?
Yes, only on CML and production sniffer.
How frequently does product update happen?
Can we do license transfer?
