Introduction
Dynamips is a Cisco router emulator written by Christophe Fillot. It emulates 2691, 3620, 3640, 3660, 3725, 3745, and 7206 hardware platforms, and runs standard IOS images. In Chris’ own words:
This kind of emulator would be useful to:
· Be used as a training platform, with software used in real world. It would allow people to become more familiar with Cisco devices, Cisco being the world leader in networking technologies ;
· Test and experiment features of Cisco IOS ;
· Check quickly configurations to be deployed later on real routers.
Of course, this emulator cannot replace a real router, it is simply a complementary tool to real labs for administrators of Cisco networks or people wanting to pass their CCNA/CCNP/CCIE exams.
