Interpret the output of various show and debug commands to verify the operational status of a Cisco switched network => OK.Configure, verify, and troubleshoot RSTP operation => RSTP is not supported.Configure, verify, and troubleshoot VTP => Almost the same but configuration is done using the vlan database mode.Configure, verify, and troubleshoot interVLAN routing => OK.Configure, verify, and troubleshoot trunking on Cisco switches => 802.1Q only, no ISL, no dynamic auto or dynamic desirable mode.
Configure, verify, and troubleshoot VLANs => Mostly the same but only vlan database mode is possible (not the newer global configuration mode) and the show vlan command is show vlan-switch.Identify, prescribe, and resolve common switched network media issues, configuration issues, auto negotiation, and switch hardware failures => GNS3 cannot emulate media or hardware issues.Verify network status and switch operation using basic utilities (including: ping, traceroute, telnet, SSH, arp, ipconfig), and SHOW & DEBUG commands => OK.Perform and verify initial switch configuration tasks including remote access management => OK.Let take the 640-802 CCNA® Exam Topics (Blueprint) where I only kept the config/implementation points and see what GNS3 can and cannot be used for.Ĭonfigure, verify and troubleshoot a switch with VLANs and interswitch communications Some parts like WLANs are theory only and configuration is not tested during the exam.
You are right, GNS3 doesn't support all the commands but still, you can easily study most of CCNA using GNS3, more than enough to comfortably pass. I see that some of the switching commands aren't supported.
*Mar 1 00:01:41.742: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by consoleĬisco IOS Software, C2600 Software (C2600-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 12.4(25d), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)Ĭopyright (c) 1986-2010 by Cisco Systems, Inc.Sorry if this been asked before, but does GNS3 support all the commands that I need for the CCNA and CCNA security exams? Match-any Logical-OR all matching statements under this classmap Match-all Logical-AND all matching statements under this classmap Just wondering if anyone has had success with this syntax in GNS3. My only options are match-any, match-all, and WORD. Perhaps I'm just using the wrong IOS version/Router, but when I try to issue Router(config)# class-map type I get unrecognized command. So I'm working on my CCNA: Security, and having some issues with configuring zpf within GNS3.
