To download and install the demo network:

2. Download the packaged zip file Sample_Network.zip
3. Start the NetworkDesigner.bat/sh from <Simulator_Home>/bin directory.
4. Select Tools -> Install menu item from the menu bar. This brings the Install Networks dialog.
5. Choose the option of whether you want to just install the network or install and load the network.
6. Browse to select the packaged zip file.

If you had chosen the Install Package option, it will only install the network. On the other hand if you had chosen Install and Load networks, the network(s) will be installed and loaded in the Network Design Tool.
The demo network configuration will be created in <SimulatorHome >/networks/NetworkDemo directory.
