RE: How To Run Cisco IOS On Your PC (Dynamips Router Emulator)

        The newest version of Dynamips (0.2.6-RC2-x86) is fairly stable
with the Etherswitch module, and it is supported in the newest version
of Dynagen. The .net files I put together for the IEWB-RS topology use
NM-16ESW on SW1 and SW2 in place of the 3550s. There are some minor
syntax differences but overall they accomplish the same functionality.
You can find the .nets here:
http://www.internetworkexpert.com/resources/ccie-hardware.htm. Also I
just added a terminal server instance that you can use to reverse telnet
to all the Dynamips instances.

HTH,
