In this post, I’m sharing the download and a 2-minute fix for the most common import errors.

The CE6800 VM might be caught in a boot loop or missing virtualization instructions in the VM settings. Ensure VT-d/VT-x is enabled in your host machine's BIOS.

The Huawei CloudEngine 6800 is a high-performance 10GE/25GE top-of-rack data center switch. Unlike the typical S-series switches (e.g., S5700) in eNSP, the CE6800 supports:

eNSP (Enterprise Network Simulation Platform) is Huawei’s official network simulation tool, widely used for learning, certification (HCIA, HCIP, HCIE), and testing Huawei device configurations. The (CloudEngine 6800) is a high-performance data center switch. To simulate CE6800 in eNSP, you must import its device package — it does not come pre-installed with basic eNSP.

The provides network engineers, administrators, and students with the necessary image files to simulate Huawei CloudEngine 6800 data center switches within the Enterprise Network Simulation Platform. Because the baseline eNSP installer does not contain heavy image bundles for high-end devices like the data-center-focused CE6800 or CE12800 series, you must manually download and import these external software packages to unlock advanced VRP8 data center feature simulations.

or GitHub repositories to find legacy image bundles that include the CE series. 2. Installation and Importing into eNSP

The CloudEngine 6800 simulator runs as an encapsulated virtual machine within your host computer's operating system. For the CE6800 switch node to boot without hanging at infinite hash ( ### ) loops, your PC environment must strictly match the following technical parameters:

The of your host computer (e.g., Windows 10, Windows 11).
