Dynagen is a front-end for use with the Dynamips Cisco router emulator. It uses an INI-like configuration file to provision Dynamips emulator networks. It takes care of specifying the right port adapters, generating and matching up those pesky NIO descriptors, specifying bridges, frame-relay, ATM switches, etc.
Dynagen also provides a management CLI for listing devices, determining and managing idle-pc values, performing packet captures, suspending and reloading instances, etc.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Merge of the features of confDynagen (dynamic reconfiguration, pemu support, and many other features). Big thanks to Pavel Skovajsa for performing the merge work and other significant contributions.
· Addition of a pemu server for Cisco PIX emulation. Thanks to Thomas Pani for writing the wrapper, and to mmm123 for writing pemu. NOTE: A Pemu instance will always consume 100% of a CPU core. There is no "idlepc". Use a tool like BES (Windows) or cpulimit (Linux) if you wish to reduce CPU usage.
· Could not specify a model of 1751 or 1760 in a router definition
· WIC interfaces on 1751s and 1760s could not be used
· On Windows platforms, Network Device list changes to the temp dir before executing Dynamips (helps Vista users).
· Added a delay option to start /all. This introduces a pause between starting devices.
· Filter command was broken in 0.10.x
· FS#217 - fixed the connect method for switches. Only effected 3rd party developers using the library, Dynagen does not use these methods.
· FS#211 - Dyn...
