According to Unetlab, Unetlab support the following version vMX: 14.1R1.10-domestic and 14.1R4.8-domestic I can get the 14.1R1.10 easily from Internet. However, I can't find a packaged 14.1R4.8 image for Unetlab. I went to Unetlab and ask for help. Unfortunately, nobody responded me. As I need to use the newer version for my eVPN lab (eVPN HA), I had to. Download jinstall-12.3R7.7-domestic-signed.tgz from Mafia-download.com.

Introduction
In order to build Proof of Concept networks to test new features in mixed-vendor networks I have decided to create a setup with some virtual routers that I can test and use together with my existing lab environment.
I am going to implement:
- Juniper vSRX on ESXi
- Various Cisco IOS routers trough GNS3 on a Ubuntu VM (on ESXi)
- Juniper vMX on ESXi
Juniper vSRX on ESXi
I downloaded the 'junos-vsrx-12.1X47-D20.7-domestic.ova' file and deployed the OVA (trough the vSphere desktop client) using this and this link.
In order to get make sure the vSRX behaves like a router (packet-mode) a few commands needed to be executed:
GNS3 on a Ubuntu VM (on ESXi)
I started with installing the Ubuntu Server (ubuntu-14.04.3-server-amd64.iso).Ubuntu server installs itself without the GUI that we need for GNS3 later, so I used this link to install the gui with the commands:
I used this guide install all the dependancies for GNS3 and GNS3 itself.
Once GNS3 was installed I created some extra directories (images, projects, configs, ie, capture, and tmp) as a best practice that I found here. Dx 100 patch editor librarian for mac.
I copied all my IOS images to the 'images' folder and added some routers using this link.
IOU licence generator
There is an option to also use IOU images trough GNS3. In order to do this you need to have an IOU licence which can be created with the script found on this website.
Create a file named 'CiscoKeyGen.py' with the following content:
After the script is runned on the machine I got the following output:
Juniper vMX on ESXi
For the Juniper vMX I used the file 'jinstall-vmx-14.1R1.10-domestic.img' and this link to set it up in ESXi.
