Deploy first virtually and then move it to production

Hi,
I am just waiting for two CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+ to make a HA setup as company’s main router, but before we get those devices, I would like to start working on the setup (actually migrating from my iptables linux and routes that I have on my linux box) and then export that config to the router without to many headache . So my question is:

Is there any way that I can simulate this router and start working on the setup?

Thanks in advance.

Yes. CHR runs virtually almost everywhere and you can even simulate your network within gns3.

Thanks a lot, I will take a look

Cheers!
