Internet Explorer on Vagrant

modernie.md

The Modern.ie Virtual Machine Images – VMs used for testing several versions of IE – are now also available as vagrant boxes. Here’s the list:

• XP with IE6: http://aka.ms/vagrant-xp-ie6
• XP with IE8: http://aka.ms/vagrant-xp-ie8
• Vista with IE7: http://aka.ms/vagrant-vista-ie7
• Windows 7 with IE8: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win7-ie8
• Windows 7 with IE9: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win7-ie9
• Windows 7 with IE10: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win7-ie10
• Windows 7 with IE11: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win7-ie11
• Windows 8 with IE10: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win8-ie10
• Windows 8.1 with IE11: http://aka.ms/vagrant-win81-ie11

$ vagrant box add {title} {url}
$ vagrant init {title}
$ vagrant up

None of those links seem to work anymore.

@bannsec the one above your comment does.

The purpose of the vagrant file is to make an automated command line method to install from XP up to windows 10 test images. Manually downloading it from the website is not the solution, nor does it include anything other than the windows 10 download.

@bannsec Your purpose (use case)
You should not be excessively hitting those URLs anyway. Download them once and store them on a local drive or share and reference them from there.

I believe the reason that you need to use the download form is that they have a time limited license which expires after 90 days.
