Hi guys,

We are currently debugging the next version of GNS3 and we would like that more people who are already experienced with GNS3 participate in this debugging party.

It's easy, first download the debug version for Windows or if you have another OS, download the last dev version on code.gns3.net

Then you can test whatever you want, create labs etc. and if you find a bug, post here with as many details as you can in order to reproduce the bug (i.e. *.log files in GNS3 exec directory, .net files, error messages in GNS3 etc.)

Thanks!!!

Here is a list of the changes since version 0.7.1:

* Lot of small fixes (relative paths, link removal, .net loading, Ethernet switch connection to a Cloud etc.)
* Qemuwrapper: random MAC address for devices
* NPE-G2 option for c7200 routers (need a specific and uncompressed IOS image and C7200-IO-2FE, C7200-IO-GE-E, PA-2FE-TX and PA-GE are unlikely to work)
* Simulated switch daisy chaining support
* Improved directory selection for new projects
* New translations: Bulgarian, Italian and Ukrainian
* Frame Relay capture option for all serial links
* Dialog to display the MAC address table of a simulated Ethernet switch

The following features will work only with Dynamips version > 0.2.8 RC2:

* OIR (Online Insertion and Removal) for c3660 and c3745 (only NM-4T).
* JIT sharing support (saves memory).
* C7200-JC-PA Jacket Card support. Allow the use of a slot 7 for c7200 routers with NPE-G2.
* QinQ support for simulated Ethernet switches.
* Interfaces statistics (Packets in, Packets out, Bytes in, Bytes out). Displayed in node tooltips.

I thought that last version of Dynamips is 0.2.8 RC2.

There is a Dynamips 0.2.8 RC3 with some improvements and new features but not yet released. GNS3/Dynagen is almost ready for this version when Chris (developer of Dynamips) release it.

Thank you VERY much for fixing the "relative-paths" bit. That's going to save me a lot of time.

This isn't so much a debugging issue as a feature request (sorry, couldn't find a feature request board here): I'd like GNS3 to have the ability to conserve/ignore inline comments in .net files. At the moment, it looks like it writes the .net file each time you save and when it does so, it eliminates any comments from the .net file. My comments are always a line beginning with "#".

Thanks so much for all your work. This is a massive aide to studying for Cisco exams and I hope the impending IOSv15 licensing issues can be worked out.

Cheers,
Chris H.

I'll see what I can do in a future release.

Cheers,
