In my experience, I got trouble when it was starting to install Wireshark but I just ignore it then install Wireshark separately to solve this issue. Once you prepared all those files, then follow these installation and configuration steps as described below: 1] Install GNS3 1.5.4Īs usual, you just need to double click GNS3-1.5.4-all-in-one.exe file then follow its instructions. Cisco IOU L2/元 image files, please don’t ask me to provide!.VMWare Workstation/Player 10.0.4, you should buy or find another method to get the full version.In my case, I choose VMWare Workstation due to VirtualBox doesn’t support KVM. There are two files you need to download:
Download GNS 3 Installer file for your OS here.OK, these are some items we need to prepare before installation. I believe there are people outside there who already familiar and shared this kind of tutorial but I wanna do in my way ~ at least, it’s for personal reference ~. In this session, I want to share a tutorial how to configure GNS IOU VM on 1.5.4 version ( the latest version is 2.0.x, but I’m still prefer to use 1.5.4 version due to its stability and compatibility with my notebook). This is what I need to pursue my CCIE certification! You can simulate Cisco IOU for L2/元 device in GNS3. Due to its previous limitation on Switching emulation, now they release an update feature to run Cisco IOU (IOS On Unix) in the new version of GNS3. I can emulate real Cisco IOS in this application.
I use it since I was studying CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE till now. GNS3 is an open source application for network simulation.
