Hello Carl

The desktop node is used in CML to represent an end-user device like a PC. I suggest you take a look at the CML documentation specifically for creating and running a desktop device:

> **[Desktop - Cisco Modeling Labs v2.8 - Cisco DevNet](https://developer.cisco.com/docs/modeling-labs/desktop/)**
>
> Desktop - Documentation for Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) version 2.8.x

If you have further questions and/or specific inquiries about such deployments, let us know!

I hope this has been helpful!
