1
00:00:00,830 --> 00:00:09,770
Now, to do the integration with GNS3 on my VM and this is my NPM VM, I'm going to change the 

2
00:00:09,770 --> 00:00:15,170
network adapter to use VM Net1 host only.

3
00:00:16,410 --> 00:00:27,570
On my physical machine, I have 2 VM net adapters, VM Net1 and VM Net8 previously my virtual

4
00:00:27,570 --> 00:00:34,830
machine was bridged to the physical adapter, but to allow it to be controlled by GNS3,

5
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,150
I'm going to change it to VM net1 host only.

6
00:00:39,870 --> 00:00:50,760
I'm also going to change firewall settings and turn off the firewall so that I can ping the virtual

7
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,820
machine from my GNS3 routers

8
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,540
that'll just make it easier in the lab to do testing.

9
00:00:59,530 --> 00:01:06,210
What I also need to do is shut down the virtual machine so that GNS3 can control it.

10
00:01:07,090 --> 00:01:10,260
So once again, I've shut the machine down.

11
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:16,450
I've gone to network adapter settings and set it to use host-only

12
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:24,440
and I've disabled the firewall, what I'll do now is take a snapshot.

13
00:01:26,170 --> 00:01:34,540
So that I can revert to it if there are any problems, so NPM installed, I did that quickly and made

14
00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:35,170
a mistake.

15
00:01:35,170 --> 00:01:36,460
So I'll go to VM

16
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:43,170
snapshot manager and change the name to NPM installed.

17
00:01:46,290 --> 00:01:49,680
So now let's configure GNS3 and do the integration.

18
00:01:50,990 --> 00:01:59,870
So I'm going to start up GNS3 in windows in this case because I'm using the GNS3 VM it boots

19
00:02:02,190 --> 00:02:08,699
So you can see my VM is booting up, it's now successfully booted up and GNS3 then tells me 

20
00:02:08,699 --> 00:02:13,320
I can create a project, so I'm going to call this NPM 1.

21
00:02:16,450 --> 00:02:24,310
Now, to integrate the NPM virtual machine with GNS3, I need to go to edit preferences in GNS

22
00:02:24,730 --> 00:02:25,090
3

23
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:33,640
and I'm going to select VMware VMs because I'm using VMware workstation rather than virtual box.

24
00:02:34,020 --> 00:02:35,100
I'm going to click new,

25
00:02:37,590 --> 00:02:44,400
and in the VM list I can see my NPM virtual machine, I'm going to click finish and now I'm going

26
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,300
to click edit.

27
00:02:47,710 --> 00:02:55,600
Go to network and check this option, allow login is free to use any configured VMware adapter.

28
00:02:57,870 --> 00:03:06,240
I'm going to leave other settings at their defaults and click OK and click, OK, so what I've now done

29
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:15,240
is integrated NPM with GNS3 and I can build a topology consisting of routers and NPM.

30
00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:22,010
In the next few videos, I'm going to show you how to integrate GNS3 and NPM.

31
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:29,910
Now, in this example, I'm using, the GNS3 VM because it's the recommended way of running GNS

32
00:03:29,910 --> 00:03:30,270
3.

33
00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:40,310
It also makes sense in this example, because I'm running NPM on a Windows seven VM within VMware workstation,

34
00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:49,980
So I've got both NPM running in windows and GNS3 running within the GNS3 VM within VMware

35
00:03:49,980 --> 00:03:50,730
workstation.

36
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:59,880
The initial topology that we're going to build consists of three routers connected via serial interfaces

37
00:04:00,090 --> 00:04:08,070
and we'll advertise routes between these routers using EIGRP will also configure an out-of-band management

38
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:16,890
network and connect NPM to the out-of-band Ethernet network to allow NPM to manage the routers.

39
00:04:18,980 --> 00:04:23,780
So to build our GNS3 topology, I'm going to drag 3 routers

40
00:04:25,050 --> 00:04:26,130
to the workspace

41
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,520
as well as drag an Ethernet switch

42
00:04:34,300 --> 00:04:38,980
to the workspace, and I'm going to run to these in the GNS3 VM.

43
00:04:42,270 --> 00:04:48,540
I'll cable up the routers using the serial interfaces.

44
00:04:56,370 --> 00:04:57,150
So

45
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,520
connect the routers via the serial interfaces.

46
00:05:02,510 --> 00:05:07,220
I'll zoom in and let's view the interface labels.

47
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:18,820
Serial 0 is connected to serial 0 on router 2, serial 0 on router 1 is connected to serial 0

48
00:05:19,450 --> 00:05:26,500
on router 2, serial 0/1 is connected to serial 0/0 on router 3.

49
00:05:28,170 --> 00:05:34,800
We'll also connect FastEthernet interfaces on each router to the Ethernet switch.

50
00:05:36,610 --> 00:05:39,940
This is going to be used for our management network.

51
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,910
So there are interfaces on the switch

52
00:05:53,830 --> 00:06:02,050
and interfaces on the routers. I'll now bring NPM into the topology

53
00:06:04,110 --> 00:06:11,790
and I'm going to connect that via the Ethernet interface to port 4 on the Ethernet switch.

54
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:22,560
So this allows NPM to manage the road is using the out-of-band management network, I'll configure the

55
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:29,430
routers with IP addresses on the serial interfaces first and enable routing and then I'll configure

56
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:30,660
the management interface.
