HOW TO Install GNS3 1.3.7 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit with IOU Support

-
GNS3 runs great on Ubuntu, and it's easy to install. This quick tutorial provides the steps to install GNS3, with IOU support, on Ubuntu 14.0.4.1 LTS 64-bit. When finished, you'll still have to install an IOU license file (for IOU support), IOU image files, and IOS image files; GNS3 does not provide any of those files, so you'll have to acquire them on your own.
--- GNS3 is installed from a Terminal command line ---

# - After opening a terminal, I recommend changing to your user directory.
$ cd ~

# - Run apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get  update

# - Install GNS3 Python dependencies
$ sudo apt‐get install python3‐setuptools

$ sudo apt‐get install python3‐ws4py
$ sudo apt‐get install python3‐netifaces

#- Install Dynmips dependencies
$ sudo apt-get install cmake
$ sudo apt‐get install libelf‐dev
$ sudo apt‐get install uuid‐dev
$ sudo apt‐get install libpcap‐dev

# - Download and unzip GNS3 Linux source files (Download )
          gns3-gui-1.3.7.zip   iouyap-0.95.zip

# - Build and Install Dynamips
$ cd  dynamips-0.2.14
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo setcap cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw=ep /usr/local/bin/dynamips
$ cd ../..

# - Install GNS3 Server
$ cd gns3-server-1.3.7
$ sudo python3 setup.py install
$ cd ..

# - Install GNS3 GUI
$ cd gns3-gui-1.3.7
$ sudo python3 setup.py install
$ cd ..

# - Install IOU dependencies
$ sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:i386
$ sudo ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /lib/libcrypto.so.4
$ sudo apt-get install bison
$ sudo apt-get install flex
$ sudo apt-get install git
$ cd iniparser
$ make
$ sudo cp libiniparser.* /usr/lib/
$ sudo cp src/iniparser.h /usr/local/include
$ sudo cp src/dictionary.h /usr/local/include
$ cd ..

# - Install GNS3 IOUYAP app (provides network support for IOU)
$ unzip iouyap-0.95.zip
$ cd iouyap-0.95
$ sudo make install
$ sudo cp iouyap /usr/local/bin
$ cd ..

# - Install VPCS
$ unzip vpcs-0.6.zip
$ cd vpcs-0.6/src
$ ./mk.sh
$ sudo cp vpcs /usr/local/bin/
$ cd ../..

# - Install VirtualBox
$ sudo apt-get install virtualbox

# - Install Wireshark
$ sudo apt-get install wireshark

# - Install QEMU - method 1
$ sudo apt-get install qemu

# - Install QEMU - method 2 (x86 arch. only)
$ sudo apt-get install qemu-system-x86
$ sudo apt-get install qemu-utils

# - Install cpulimit
$ sudo apt-get install cpulimit

Add your IOU License file, IOU/IOS images, and you're ready to create  projects, so launch GNS3 and get started!

# - Start GNS3
$ gns3

That's it. Have fun!

7 Popular Layer 2 Attacks

A large number of common threats need to be considered when securing a network, but a frequently overlooked area is the security of the LAN. When people think about security, often they’re thinking specifically of the layers above Layer 2, but there’s no reason to limit a security plan to these upper layers.  A good security plan should account for  all  layers, from Layer 1 through Layer 7.   Here we are discussing about some of the most common Layer 2 attacks and how they operate. 1. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Attacks The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is used on LAN-switched networks. Its primary function is removing potential loops within the network. Without STP, Layer 2 LANs simply would stop functioning, because the loops created within the network would flood the switches with traffic. The optimized operation and configuration of STP ensures that the LAN remains stable and that traffic takes the most optimized path through the network.  If an att

QUESTION 21 Refer to the exhibit. The two connected ports on the switch are not turning orange or green. What would be the most effective steps to troubleshoot this physical layer problem? (Choose three.) A. Ensure that the Ethernet encapsulations match on the interconnected router and switch ports. B. Ensure that cables A and B are straight-through cables. C. Ensure cable A is plugged into a trunk port. D. Ensure the switch has power. E. Reboot all of the devices. F. Reseat all cables. Correct Answer: BDF QUESTION 22  A network administrator is troubleshooting the OSPF configuration of routers R1 and R2. The routers cannot establish an adjacency relationship on their common Ethernet link The graphic shows the output of the show ip ospf interface e0 command for routers R1 and R2. Based on the information in the graphic, what is the cause of this problem? A. The OSPF area is not configured properly. B. The priority on R1 sho

Nine Switch Commands Every Cisco Network Engineer Needs to Know

1. hostname Syntax:   hostname   hostname One of the most basic network commands,  hostname  configures the hostname used for a device. This hostname identifies the device to other locally connected devices for protocols such as the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), which helps in the identification of devices attached directly to the network. Although it is not case-sensitive, the hostname must follow certain rules: It must begin with a letter and end in a letter or digit, and interior characters must be letters, digits, or hyphens (-). 2. ip default-gateway Syntax:   ip default-gateway  gateway The  ip default-gateway  command configures the default gateway for a switch when IP routing is  not  enabled (with the  ip routing  global configuration command), which is typical when lower-level Layer 2 switches are being configured. The easiest way to determine whether IP routing has been enabled is to run the  show ip route  command. When IP routing has not bee
