 In CSIT terminology, the VM operating system for both SUTs that |vpp-release| has

 been tested with, is the following:

 

-**#. Ubuntu VIRL image**

-

-This image implies Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, current as of yyyy-mm-dd (that is,

-package versions are those that would have been installed by a "apt-get update",

-"apt-get upgrade" on that day), produced by CSIT disk image build scripts.

-

-The exact list of installed packages and their versions (including the Linux

-kernel package version) are included in CSIT source repository:

-

-  resources/tools/disk-image-builder/ubuntu/lists/|virl-image-ubuntu|

-

-A replica of this VM image can be built by running the "build.sh" script in CSIT

-repository resources/tools/disk-image-builder/ubuntu.

-**#. CentOS VIRL image**

-The Centos7.3 image is ready to be used but no tests running on it now.

-**#. Nested VM image**

-

-In addition to the "main" VM image, tests which require VPP to communicate to a

-VM over a vhost-user interface, utilize a "nested" VM image.

-

-This "nested" VM is dynamically created and destroyed as part of a test case,

-and therefore the "nested" VM image is optimized to be small, lightweight and

-have a short boot time. The "nested" VM image is not built around any

-established Linux distribution, but is based on `BuildRoot

-<https://buildroot.org/>`_, a tool for building embedded Linux systems. Just as

-for the "main" image, scripts to produce an identical replica of the "nested"

-image are included in CSIT GIT repository, and the image can be rebuilt using
