Starting the GNS3 version 2.1.10, Solar-Putty is packaged as the default SSH client. However, how to integrate it to GNS3 later? As it was not selected during the GNS3 installation? Follow:
1. Download the Solar Putty application from https://www.solarwinds.com/free-tools/solar-putty. Puty is zipped, therefore after the download has completed, unzip the Solar-PuTTY.exe application file to your preferred application folder. I used the C:\Program Files (x86)\Solar-Putty\ for that.
Working on our practical networking lessons our students and I, as their teacher, we are usually configuring several routers and switches (sometimes up to ten), which are accessible remotely. For this, we welcome the use of multi-tabbed and especially multi execution clients.
They allow us to eficiently organize working space and run commands in one task on all connected network equipments (for example to save running config).
Open vSwitch (OVS) is a multilayer (MLS) virtual switch licensed under the open-source Apache 2.0 license which is widely used in the field of virtual networking. With this open-source MLS switch, we can easily extend GNS3 switching capabilities. We can add this switch to GNS3 very quickly using a GNS3 OVS appliance. No base Linux system VM is required, no ISO images.
In this post I’m going to describe how to add and run OVS MLS inside of the GNS3 (local or remote).

This article provides a how-to guide on how to add/join a Linux-based system (server, workstation) to a Windows domain working with Active Directory.
We are using GNS3 remote server deployment, where sometimes (typically at a higher CPU load) GSN3 opens some project as very zoomed out. And, GNS3 zoom does not react at all (problem with zoom-in / zoom-out).
Solution => go to the Main menu, select View and then Zoom Reset (Ctrd +D).
Our ISP provider (SANET) offers an IPTV service, where the list of TV/radio programs is offered using SAP multicast at IPv4 address of 233.10.47.10. However, my PC (with Win 10 OS installed) stopped receiving the SAP announcements, and the playlist was just empty. All works fine but once it stopped. Even better, it works for some of my colleagues, but not for others
My PC runs dual-stack, i.e. my network works with IPv4/IPv6. My PC has several network adapters as I’m running some virtualization software.
My students received the message “You did not complete all requirements” even though they are set to “Pass”.
It is an Netacad issue. The instructor can resolve this by manually refreshing the Course Details in the following way:
This guide will describe how to install a full Linux OS on an USB flash disk with permanent storage feature, i.e. the system does not lost your files after a reboot as usual live distribution does. The system is fully operable OS and transferable to any PC with all your installed and saved stuff.
There are several ways how to do it, for example using two usb keys, or making a bootable live USB key and then performing the installation (as is for example decribed here How to Install Linux OS on USB Drive and Run it On Any PC ).
Sometimes there is a need for simple and quick analysis or the troubleshooting of a SIP server and its call functions. Of course, we should use the well-known tcpdump, mentioned in the article Using tcpdump for SIP diagnostics. However, for some occasional Linux users this may be too difficult and unclear. Actually there exist some simpler utilities,, that could work fine, as ngrep, and for me newer sipgrep and sngrep (love at first sight).
All utils are directly available and can be installed online from Debian repo using apt-get install ngrep sipgrep sngrep.
Table provides the overview of security features of nine analysed open-source SIP clients (some sources call them the RTC communicator).
