Welcome to the HP Network Simulator (HNS) Discussion Board

[Jay_Flora]

Hello Everyone,

HP is pleased to welcome you to the HP Network Simulator (HNS) discussion board. HNS is an exciting new application that allows you to simulate the Comware version 7 operating system. You can create a virtual networking environment to include Comware v7 based routers and switches. It enables you to keep your networking environment virtual or bridge your virtual environment to an external network using the TAP interface.

The HNS discussion board is a community for peer collaboration, support issues, and creative/interactive discussions.

The HNS webpage includes links to download the software. It can be accessed at http://www.hp.com/Networking/HNS

We will be adding Configuration Guides and other Technical documentation pretty soon.

Thank you and we look forward to your participation in this exciting community!

Regards,

Jay

OK, I've been clicking around from the link you provided and, as usually happens when I'm trying to find something on the HP website, I now need a stiff drink. I'm lost. Where are the "configuration guides", exactly?

Thanks.

When I click on "Manuals", I get:

Manuals

There are no documents of this type associated with your selected product and language. There may be other content. See the list of options under Knowledge Base, Search HP Support Center, or visit Forums.

When I click around on links in the "Knowledge Base", I get humourous pages such as,

But otherwise, I am very excited at the prospect of having a Comware simulator to play with.

Hi Vince,

We haven't added any configuration guides/technical documentation yet. We will start adding them soon.

Regards.

This page "HP Network Simulator for Comware Devices" is an older page. We're still working on integrating the new webpage with older content. Thanks for your patience Vince.
