We will take you through the fundamentals of GNS3 using a unique setup: a pre-configured virtual machine with GNS3 all ready to go. This means you can dive right into networking without the hassle of dealing with complex installations.
STRESS-FREE SONiC TESTING
Test And Exercises
- Verify IP connectivity between leaf and spine switches using ping.
- Ensure all devices can reach each other over the configured VXLAN.
- Check the BGP neighbor relationships on all devices.
- Verify the advertised and received routes using show bgp ipv4 unicast summary and show bgp ipv4 unicast neighbors.
- Validate the VXLAN tunnel establishment using show vxlan tunnel.
- Check the mapping of VTEPs and ensure they are correctly configured.
- Inspect the EVPN routes using show evpn es-evi.
- Verify the MAC address learning across VXLAN segments.
- Verify the functionality of the SAG by checking the IP and MAC address consistency across leaf switches.
- Test host mobility by moving a VM between different leaf switches and ensuring continuous connectivity.
- Simulate a spine switch failure and observe the traffic rerouting.
- Test the failover scenarios for leaf switches and their impact on the overall network.

Troubleshooting and FAQs Tips:
At least 24 vCPU, 48GB RAM, 50GB storage. However, more resources may be needed depending on the size of your network emulations.
Download the latest OVA file from the STORDIS website and redeploy it.
Ensure the VM has adequate resources allocated. Check for any other VMs on the ESXi server that may be consuming resources. Optimize your network topology within GNS3 to reduce load.
Verify that the VM has sufficient resources allocated (CPU, RAM). Check the VM’s log files for any error messages.
Ensure that the GNS3 VM is properly powered on and running. Verify network connectivity between your local machine and the ESXi server. Check firewall settings on both your local machine and the ESXi server.
Check the network settings of the VM. Ensure that the VM’s IP address is correctly configured and reachable from your local machine.
