Cisco VIRL - anyone using it?

I am wondering if anyone is using Cisco VIRL and what their experience with it is? Specifically Cisco VIRL, i am already up to speed with GNS3/dynamips, this is more of a product curiosity.

Hey Bahlkris - just got it and starting to use it. I like it can do some layer2/3 stuff with a virtualized switch, can do BFD. It's a PITA to setup vs. GNS3 though. Cisco's got some work to do there…

Yes, i am using it with Cisco CSR1000V, vASA and added Fortinet firewall too.
I built a DMVPN with BGP to simulate a routing design for a Project.
It works well and allow updated IOS support, forget about recent IOS support on GNS3, i needed BGP additional path features (IP Routing: BGP Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS XE Release 3S - BGP Additional Paths [Cisco IOS XE 3S] - Cisco) and others ... .
Of course be ready to invest in a proper Server when GNS3 is more light on hardware requirements.
