Hi,
Another post after a long time, After the unsuccessful lab attempt in July 2010, I was got really busy chasing my pending stuff. That includes both office and home. My Boss was expecting to cover all that I spent on studying and my family wanted all my attention. Thing for now started to cool down and I am again looking forward for another attempt (may be in April 2011).
I have started to putting my study material in-order, just upgraded to my PC to 4GB of memory and hard drive to 1TB. Expected to increase total memory to 8GB. Previously I had issues running GNS3/Dynamips on Windows 2003. With full scale labs, the CPU utilization goes to 80 to 90% and the I was getting problems with routing protocol adjacencies. One of my friend, who is Linux Geek, told me to run GNS/Dynamips on Linux. He gave me a brief introduction to basic workings and I was manage to install Ubuntu 10.10 x64 on home PC and laptop. Once I get accoustmed to the Linux environement, I am looking forward to install GNS/Dynamips on Ubuntu. I will be using the following tutorial for help:
