This emulation platform was created to support network service developers to locally prototype and test complete network service chains in realistic end-to-end multi-PoP scenarios. It allows the direct execution of real network functions, packaged as Docker containers, in emulated network topologies running locally on the network service developer's machine. -More details about the the emulator's architecture and concepts can be found in the following publication(s): +### Cite this work -* Manuel Peuster, Holger Karl, and Steven van Rossem.

The simple one is to use Vagrant to create a VirtualBox-based VM on you machine that contains the pre-installed and configured emulator.
