Hi Joseph,

we run for testing purposes just a whole bunch of Linux VMs with
BIRD and even emulated Ciscos in a GNS3 environment on a nested virtualiser.
That is, one Linux VM on top of VMware is a virtualisation host for a
GNS3 environment using Virtualbox and other emulators (MIPS for Cisco).
This one VM is the host for approx. 15 routers, most of them with BIRD.
And except for some issues with the GNS3 environment, the routing tests
work fine.
