=== IGEP SDK Virtual Machine ===
The IGEP SDK Virtual Machine allows you to boot a custom Linux distribution image using a non-Linux development system. We don't recommend that you use the virtual machine as a day-to-day production development environment. You should limit the virtual machine to testing out and experiencing with the IGEP Technology.
We use a virtual machine (VM) to make an easy way to introduce quickly to a complete development environment for IGEP Technology based devices.
To understand the virtual machine, you need to be familiar with some terms and concepts:
'''Host Computer:''' The system on which you are running the virtual machine. For example, the host computer could be your laptop computer running the Windows operating system.
'''Virtualization infrastructure:'''
*VirtualBox: An Oracle product that lets you run multiple operating systems at the same time on your PC. It allows you to create isolated virtual machines to try things out. See [https://www.virtualbox.org https://www.virtualbox.org] for more information.
*VMware Player: A VMware product that lets you run multiple operating systems at the same time on your PC. It allows you to create isolated virtual machines to try things out. See [http://www.vmware.com/products/player http://www.vmware.com/products/player] for more information.
'''OVA File:''' Is a TAR file with the OVF directory inside. The Open Virtual Machine Format file defines the Virtual Machine, including which disk image (vmdk) to use. The disk image contains a Linux distribution build by ISEE. For information on the Open Virtual Machine Format file, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Virtualization_Format this page].

= Install the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine<br> =
This tutorial guide shows the steps for setup the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine (VM) in your computer, which includes a software development kit with all its software completely installed and ready to use.
First of all, download the Virtual Machine:
You can also download the Virtual Machine manual:
.. or you can:
#Open a web browser and go to [http://www.isee.biz/ www.isee.biz], the main page from ISEE.
#In the product section, go to the page of the product you have, for example, IGEPv2.
#Select the "IGEP SDK Virtual Machine" and downloaded it into your PC.
#''Virtualbox'' [http://www.virtualbox.org], a multiplatorm application for Linux, Mac or Windows
#''VMWare Player'' [http://www.vmware.com/products/player/], which can be downloaded for Windows or Linux.
'''NOTE:''' Old virtualization software maybe has problems with IGEP SDK VM ova file. Upgrade it to solve this problem.
==== '''VirtualBox ''' ====
If you edit the default configuration, ensure to set bridge mode to the network adapter
==== <br> '''VMWare ''' ====
Open a new virtual machine and select the .ova downloaded file.
