Dynamips - Router Emulation Video Tutorials - Blindhog.net

[blindhognet]

I have created a few video tutorials that demonstrate using Dynamips (Router emulation software). The tutorials help create a virtual network on your PC. Very helpful with creating a cheap lab.

Enjoy!

Interesting, I'll play with this right now on Linux, thanks.

Dang, I don't have an ios image for a 2691, 3620, 3640, 3660, 3725, 3745, or 7206. ftp.cisco.com has none. Of course, I'm sure I could find images for all of them on p2p or something, but, as of late, I've been stuck on this idea of using "legal software."

I don't think that using IOS images downloaded from p2p for learning purposes is that much of a problem. It still illegal, but Cisco wants people to be familiar with their products. They might as well offer trial versions of IOS, just like MS does with Windows Server 2003.

Yeah, no kidding, you would think so! Unfortunately, it just isn't true if you ask Cisco.
