    "description": "Cisco IOS XRd Control Plane runs the full IOS XR control plane (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, MPLS, segment routing, NETCONF/YANG, gNMI) as a Docker container with a Linux-kernel data plane — designed for control-plane labs and automation, not forwarding performance.\n\nThis appliance runs the unmodified Cisco image inside a GNS3 Docker node. The Web console opens directly in the IOS XR CLI (xr_cli via the docker_exec console).",

    "usage": "The official image must be loaded on the GNS3 server first (it is not on Docker Hub). The tag must be `ios-xr/xrd-control-plane:<version>`, or edit the template image afterwards:\n\n```bash\ndocker load -i xrd-control-plane-<version>.tar.gz   # from Cisco with a valid account\n```\n\n**Other versions (25.x, 26.x, ...):** the appliance pins one tested image tag, and Docker appliances have no per-version selector in the `.gns3a` format — just load the tarball you want and change the template's image field to `ios-xr/xrd-control-plane:<version>` (templates are version-agnostic here: same env vars, volumes and interface mapping).\n\n**Host preparation** (once, XRd requirements — GNS3 warns about these at Docker connect):\n\n```bash\nsudo sysctl -w fs.inotify.max_user_instances=64000 fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 fs.file-max=1000000\nsudo modprobe fuse\n# persist them under /etc/sysctl.d/\n```\n\nEach node uses about **4 GB RAM** and takes 2-3 minutes to boot.\n\n**Default login:** `admin` / `cisco` (created by the injected first-boot config).\n\nThe first-boot config only applies while the XR config storage is empty; to re-seed it, delete and recreate the node. Committed configuration persists across stop/start (via `/xr-storage`).\n\nData interfaces need an address and `no shutdown` before they pass traffic.",
