ADD ASA TO GNS3 INSTALL

There are a few options but I prefer linux-microcore.ġ2. So you can download a small Linux image from GNS3. Having a host machine for you labs is handy, usually you just need to be able to ping, or perform tracerts. Repeat for each model of router you want to add.

Check that the path to the ‘projects’ and your ‘images’ folder are where you want them to be. Note: You can do the same in future, by going to Edit > PreferencesĢ. Launch the program, you will be greeted with the following setup wizard.
