There would have been such a folder created when you installed VMware Player/Fusion: Windows XP - My documents/Virtual Machines/ Windows 7/Vista /Documents/Virtual Machines/ Macintosh OS X ~/Documents/Virtual Machines/ Part 3: First run... * From that folder, open the.vmx file (double click - or open from VMWare) * When asked "Did you move this virtual machine...", answer "I copied it" * When the VM opens - maximise the VM to the full screen (you may have to maximise/shrink/maximise to get it to work) Part 4: My VM is running, now what???? Before you can enjoy using GNS3, you have to get your IOS image copied to the virtual machine, and uncompress it. * Note the directory on your host machine where you have stored the IOS image * With your Virtual Machine running, choose the appropriate steps below according to the version of VMware you are running: - VMWare Player: (Note, you may have to move your mouse to the very top and centre or your screen to see the menu) . click VMware Player->Shared Folders . enable shared folders and . share the folder where you have stored the IOS image - VM Fusion (Mac): (Note, you may have to move your mouse to the very top and centre or your screen to see the menu) . click Virtual Machine->Shared Folders->Turn Shared Folders On . click Virtual Machine->Shared Folders->Add Shared Folder . share the folder where you have stored the IOS image * Now from within the Ubuntu environment on the Virtual Machine: * Open the desktop folder "READMEs and scripts" to open a browser window. - Click on the "Network" Icon in the "Places" list (on the left panel) . you should be able to find & navigate to your host machine's shared folder . copy the IOS image to Ubuntu's /opt/GNS3/IOS directory * Bring up a command window - Click Applications->Konsole should do it - enter the following commands cd /opt/GNS3/IOS ls -lh;#to check your IOS image is indeed there unzip -p NAME_OF_YOUR_IOS_IMAGE.bin > NAME_OF_YOUR_IOS_IMAGE.image ls -lh;#to check your uncompressed IOS image was created rm NAME_OF_YOUR_IOS_IMAGE.bin;#to remove the original If your IOS image is the recommended c3725-adventerprisek9-mz.124-15.T10.bin image for a C3725, then you are ready to: * Explore the pre-configured exercises from the desktop or open the folder "GNS Files - More exercises here" to explore * Read the Readme files within the GNS3 WorkBench environment * If your PC seems to be running at a high CPU rate, read Part 5. * Enjoy Part 5: I don't have the recommended C3725 image, but have another c3725 image or and image for a 2600 or 2691 * THIS IS VERY EXPERIMENTAL * Copy the image to the /opt/GNS3/IOS directory and uncompress it as described above in Part 4 * Configure GNS3 to use this image for this model router (Click Edit->IOS images and hypervisors: add the Image file & Model) * Find a good idlepc value for this router/image. Read The document: /opt/GNS3/READMEs & Scripts/GNS3-0.5-tutorial.pdf to find how to get a good idlepc value * Write down the good idlepc value you found * make a backup copy of the /opt/GNS3/Project directory * run the script /opt/GNS3/IOS/script to change firmware imagehttp://uploaded.net/file/dezvgph4/GNS3%20WorkBench%205.8.part1.rarhttp://uploaded.net/file/jadig73z/GNS3%20WorkBench%205.8.part2.rarhttp://rapidgator.net/file/dc855b23f55defde58569f12bf7b3704/GNS3_WorkBench_5.8.part1.rar.htmlhttp://rapidgator.net/file/d28a5d49b8434d7216bb52c3416d8700/GNS3_WorkBench_5.8.part2.rar.htmlhttp://lumfile.com/cp2vcjv0fqa8/GNS3_WorkBench_5.8.part1.rar.htmlhttp://lumfile.com/2gi0tgryk7iw/GNS3_WorkBench_5.8.part2.rar.htmlFor other news, visit my profile every day!
