Run netplex your way.
No cloud account required. Import the appliance or flash the bare-metal image - then open your browser. netplex IS the operating system: nothing to install on top of yours, nothing to keep compatible. Pick a path:
Beta builds drop here at soft launch - links below are placeholders for now.
Virtual Appliance
A ready-to-run .ova for VirtualBox or VMware. Import, start, open your browser. Best for trying netplex on your laptop.
Bare-metal ISO
A full Ubuntu 26.04 LTS image with netplex preinstalled. Flash to USB, boot the host, get native KVM performance for big labs.
Runs on your cloud. All four of them.
Same appliance, no script: every cloud lets you import the netplex disk image as a custom image and boot it - netplex IS the operating system, so nothing gets installed onto a distro we can't control. Container and namespace labs run at full native speed everywhere; for heavy vendor VM images pick a shape with hardware virtualization - netplex checks /dev/kvm at start-up and tells you honestly, instead of failing with a cryptic error.
AWS
Import the appliance with VM Import/Export (OVA → AMI), then launch. Any instance for container labs; *.metal for vendor VMs - native KVM, no nesting.
Microsoft Azure
Upload the appliance disk as a VHD, create an image, boot it on an Intel Dv3+/Ev3+ SKU - nested virtualization gives vendor VMs full acceleration.
Google Cloud
Import the appliance disk with gcloud images import plus the nested-virt licence flag, and KVM appears inside the instance.
Oracle Cloud
Upload the appliance disk to Object Storage and create a custom image. Intel VM shapes support nested KVM; true bare metal is one console click for full-speed labs.
Lab networks can join the cloud's own network too - NAT out of the box, or routed mode to make lab subnets reachable from your VPC / VNet / VCN.
Three steps. No CLI required.
Get it
Download the appliance or ISO above. The appliance imports into VirtualBox/VMware; the ISO flashes to a USB stick.
Start it
Boot the VM or host. netplex's services come up self-healing and supervised - nothing to configure, nothing to babysit.
Open the browser
Go to the host's address, sign in, and start building. Import an EVE-NG lab to land straight in a working topology.
