"Timos-sr-13.0.r4-vm.qcow2" is a virtual disk image for the Nokia (formerly Alcatel-Lucent) 7750 Service Router (SR) Operating System , commonly known as
. This specific format (QCOW2) is designed for use in virtualized environments like , or standard Timos-sr-13.0.r4-vm.qcow2
hypervisors to simulate network topologies for labbing, testing, and certification preparation. Overview of TiMOS-SR-13.0.R4 Operating System : Nokia SR OS (Service Router Operating System).
: Virtualized Simulator (vSim), which provides the functional equivalent of the control and management planes of a physical 7750 SR router. : 13.0.R4 (Release 13, Maintenance Release 4).
(QEMU Copy-On-Write), a space-efficient virtual disk format that only grows as data is added. Virtual Machine Requirements To run this image effectively in a simulator like , the following resources are typically allocated: license not matching TiMOS-B-13.0.R4 - Alcatel Unleashed

Explanation: The --import flag skips OS installation, directly booting the qcow2 disk. The two --network parameters provide at least two virtual ports (required for TiMOS to initialize).
