• Virtual Controller Setup
• Installing Spirent TestCenter in a STCc-libvirt-lxc Container 
• Launching a Spirent TestCenter Container Instance
• Using the Spirent TestCenter GUI for Spirent TestCenter Container Ports

Requirements

• LXC 2.0.3 or greater
• Libvirt 1.3.1 or greater
• Ubuntu 16.04
• All power saving (SpeedStep, C1 states, etc.) and turbo boost options should be disabled on the host system.  Running Spirent TestCenter with these options enabled on the host system may cause incorrect transmit and receive rates.
• The STCc-libvirt-lxc container must be attached to a management bridge interface which will be used to communicate with the Spirent TestCenter BLL/GUI application.
• Spirent provides a launcher script, spirent_lxc, to manage the lifecycle of the STCc-libvirt-lxc container.

Limitation

STCc-libvirt-lxc container cannot be upgraded via the Spirent TestCenter GUI.
