Abstract
Internal network (platform) virtualization is the creation of a virtual machine (VM) that appears to be another physical computer with an operating system. Multiple VMs can run on the same physical host. This reduces costs for an organisation that desires extended network functionality (Barkham et al., 2003).
Virtualisation, as a topic, is already integrated into a general Wintec School of IT degree networking paper. EPG ICT industry members have been surveyed to de-termine the current extent of virtualization implementa-tion in their organisations. This poster focuses on an analysis of their responses and the options available, based on these results
