Hi David I have a problem with my GNS3 in fact when I start it, it cannot synchronize with my computer to be able to use the resources of my computer but it shows me this message saying that "could not connect to 127.0 .0.1 on port: (WinError 10061) No connection could be established because the target computer expressly refused it. Please! can you give me the solution? please really
David Please update 7:21, where you talk about VMware player. VMware workstation pro is now available free for personal use. It's the recommended option.
Hello, I feel lucky to have found this channel, specifically this video. It helped me a lot and clear many of my doubts. In addition, sow good practices in the management and installation of GNS3 software and its various extensions. Thank you teacher, I will follow you in your contributions in the networking community. Greetings from Peru.
David, thank you so much! works like a charm. don't need at this point spend $200/anually on vir2.0 subscription and limitations of CPT (especially in ASAs configs) are forgotten for good. subscribing.
If you're watching this and it's not working for you, that's because you're using VMware workstation 15, the current version. Using VMware workstation player 14 with VIX 1.17 will work. You have to navigate the vmware website to find the version 14 (its buried, but its there) and version 1.17. THEN if you're using windows 10, it'll try to tell you that you cannot use that app, so then you need to turn off windows program compatibility by shutting down the service, then reboot, and then rename the .exe for vmware player 14 (I googled instructions on how to do this, it's not hard) THEN...well, I still didn't get vmrun to ever work, so I just manually opened vmware player 14...not a huge deal to me. USING VMWARE PLAYER 15 IS NOT CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED, I found all this info on the GNS3 forums. wrmem.net/index.php/2016/03/22/gns3-vm-and-vmware-workstation-12-player-could-not-find-the-default-vm-directory/ gns3.com/community/discussion/gns3-doesn-t-work-on-vmware-play that is, as of this current date 11/10/2019. I also can't think of a different workaround for anyone using Intel, but AMD users can just use Virtual Box as it now supports nested virtualization for AMD processors (apparently doesn't work with Intel yet?)
Oh my! After browsing every site up and down this was the only comment that actually helped me get it to work! Thank you Colin for being so kind to tell us this.
If you get this errorr : "Virtualized AMD-V/RVI is not supported, then open Win Powershell (as administrator) type: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off if problem presist then win + r > optionalfeatures and remove "Windows Subsystem for Linux". That worked for me ! *don't forget to reboot
@David Bombal: Thank you for the video, great Job! I will start to work with GNS3. Where can I find more details about the restrictions of Virtual box or VM Player?
David, you are a legend. Thanks so much for the quality videos. BTW, I am so glad I paid for one of your courses in the GNS3 Academy, I hope to finish them soon! I train coworkers, so as an instructor I really look up to you as a role model.
I had issues to get the vm LED go green on me. I spent hours reading about it on the gns3 community but could not get it to turn on green. I ended up uninstalling and starting fresh. The only thing I changed was after installing the GUI, I enable the gns3vm before downloading the GNS3 VM and it worked. Don't know why but I am thankful for this video. If you get a chance you may want to address that issues. I think lots of folks run into it. Regards Ben
I love the video but c'mon man.... tell us to shutdown GNS3 BEFORE you install VMware workstation in the video, don't tell us AFTER you install it in the video LOL... I had to redo it lol... But it's cool I got it to work. Great video my friend.
In case you do everything explained here and it still does not work, then you need to disable the hyperV virtualization setting. Since Windows prioritizes the hyperV over VMware and VBox.
Hi, do you know how to resolve this problem: Error while saving settings: GNS3VM: Error while executing VMware command: vmrun has returned an error: Unable to connect to host. Error: The specified version was not found Try to run "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware VIX\vmrun.exe" -T player checkToolsState "C:\Users\Patryk Lewandowski\Documents\Virtual Machines\GNS3 VM1\GNS3 VM1.vmx" in a terminal to see more details. And make sure GNS3 and VMware run under the same user. ???
I just notice it says on the error you posted "C:\Users\Patryk Lewandowski\Documents\Virtual Machines\GNS3 VM1\GNS3 VM1.vmx" as I know the folder and vmdk name should only be "GNS3 VM". You can check this under Edit->Preferences->GNS3 VM. Under VM Name it should show GNS3 VM.
Hey David, I stumbled across your videos because I've been looking for help. I followed your steps here, and I get an error stating that my eth0 isn't connected. I can fix that by manually removing the comments in the network file, but after that my VM is always greyed out and not green within the GUI. Any help would be appreciated!
Hi. Interesting video. Anyway, I still haven't understood why we need to install a GNS3 GUI (and its server) on our Windows PC and a GNS3 VM in VmWare? Couldn't we run anything in VMWare and install images of devices in the GNS3 vm only? Why do I need both? Thanks
That is a clear and a fantastic tutorial, Dave. Here is my question, my intel doesn't support vt-x (advanced virtualization technology) but VT-only ( I enabled it in my BIOS). So unless I start GNS3 VM manually without vt-x and connect it with GUI, it won't start by default from GUI because the default startup requires VT-x to be enabled which I don't have on my PC. I tried to install net devices, it says KVM is not available. Is there any solution?
Hello Guys. When initializing the GNS3 VM is presented the following issue: "VMware Workstation and Device/Credential Guard are not compatible. VMware Workstation can be run after disabling Device/Credential Guard", watch the following video: ruclips.net/video/VIBdY-5zr58/видео.html to get it running successfully.
Wow you are in these things very cool things this is why i believe something very interesting money flows. But these programs i have learn it very expensive but i believe if it free but in real only moneys flows .ty
Hi, my GNS3 VM inside GNS3 is grayed out.. its not Green.. what should I do? Please any help would be appreciated.. my VT is enabled in BIOS by the way, also in VMware.
Hi David, first of all thank you very much for the very informative tutorial. I am facing an issue as I installed everything correctly, but when I run the VMWare, it shows me this message, ``` Virtualized Intel VT-x/EPT is not supported on this platform. Continue without virtualized Intel VT-x/EPT? ``` When I click on "No", it shows "Failed to start the virtual machine". While upon clicking "Yes", it shows: ```VMware Workstation does not support nested virtualization on this host. Module 'HV' power on failed. Failed to start the virtual machine. ``` Would you mind letting me know the possible solution, please? Thanks
Was having this error too, my workaround was opening the Vmware Workstation and editing the GNS3 Virtual Machine disabling the "Virtualized Intel VT-x/EPT" feature.
HI, I had this issue in win11, turning off memory core isolation in device security fixed it for me. I don't personally like turning off security features in my machine but only that seems to be a workaround for it for now at least if you are on win 11
please sir i have this problem in my gns3 Error while saving settings: GNS3VM: Error while executing VMware command: vmrun has returned an error: unknown Try to run "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmrun.exe" -T ws checkToolsState "D:\Virtual Machines\GNS3 VM\GNS3 VM.vmx" in a terminal to see more details. And make sure GNS3 and VMware run under the same user.
In my case, I've installed everything properly on linux ubuntu. But my gns3 isn't detecting the GNS3 VM aftere lots of refreshes and even after reinstalling the VM, still it's not detecting.
Hello! Can we run differend devices in one project on differeng GNS3 servers? like if you run PC1 on asus, and PC2 on VM. will it work correctly? The answer is: i try to use different servers with wmware workstation, but gns3 see only local installaton of wmware and VMs on it. Any other installation of workstation with VMs in the same local network cant be connected.
Hi Sir. I am getting error of error while listing vms: GNS3VM: Could not list VMware VMs: Invalid vmrun executable name VMware-workstation-full-16. 1.0-17198959.exe while connecting gns3 to vmware
Whenever I attempt to import GNS3 VM into VMware, I can not locate the file, but GNS3 is downloaded on my device. Does this mean the file is potentially corrupt? Should I delete and redownload?
I had an issue with installation where my Hper-V was detected as enabled by VMware although it wasn't. the issue with VMware Workstation Pro was resolved by addressing the Core Isolation/Memory Integrity setting in Windows Security. That feature can indeed conflict with virtualization software by reserving the hardware virtualization capabilities for security purposes, which can prevent other virtualization platforms from accessing them.
After (5) installs and re-installs of GNS3. It worked. Whew! 04-18-21 Early afternoon. Not working. Does not work... GNS3 out of the box is a difficult puppy! I've been trying since 2015 to find a reasonable path to work with GNS3 and there is always something. Is just mind boggling that in 2021 GNS is still working with a 90's setup path. Gosh!
Thanks for explain but i have issus when i install gns3 appears message (error opening file for writing C:\program file\GNS3\VCRUNTIME140.dll) Abort. Retry. ignore when i select ignore complete install and doesn’t work ?
Hey David...!! Hi I'm Using VMware workstation 15 Pro, and few virtual appliances . I am able to access those virtual appliances through vmware but unable to access them through browser in same network like "virtual machine-IP address" (for internet-facing appliance like vWLC) what could be the reason? Please help...!!!!
Dear David Bombal, I would like to express my appreciation for your teaching methodology and the precise instructions provided to ensure that GNS3 runs smoothly. I was wondering if you could share any resources or videos on using GNS3 and VMs for conducting penetration tests to prevent cyber-attacks. This will help for my masters final project.
David Please HELP! I'm having issues with VMWare Pro 15.5.6 and GNS3 2.2.12 the configuration with KVM support True and such is telling me "does not support nested virtualization on this host" Module MonitorMode powered on failed. Do you have any word on this issue??? or any one? I tried message boards and no joy.
Hi, David, I m one of your fun, just to add a couple of things I m 54 years old and switch my career for networking I love that, I'm an about to take CCNA 200-301 THIS DECEMBER so any help for me will be great
unknown error, please try again. if the problem persists, please contact vmware technical support and provide c:\users\user\appdata\local\temp\vmware-user\ovftool.log
I’m running this on a surface pro 4. The vm did not load initially. Error: “virtualized intel by-c/EPT, is not supported on this platform” I had to disable this in the VM settings. And I also needed to uncheck “Hyper visor “ in windows 10. This seems to have fixed the problem.
I have installed the VMware workstation player 16 and downloaded GNS3 VM, both GNS3 and GNS3 VN are at the same version 2.2.21 but for any reason from GNS3, it doesn't start only my local server (my laptop). I have chosen the GNS3 VM option to run appliances in a virtual machine as recommend, but the GNS3 VN doesn't t run (it is still halted on gray, while my laptop is green). Any t-shoot on this or I need to download the Vmware Workstation Pro?
Hello David - I have a question- there are two pop up I can't seem to get rif of. 1. the pop up with IP address, login in to SS.. I hit OK to that then the 2. the GNS3 Information, Channel keep poping up. I can't seem to close. Everytimr I hit OK. it keep going to the cycle... I'm dont know how to make them go away. Thank you sir!
Sorry, i do the same what you say in this video but when i restart gns3 again and wait to gns3vm This error comes to me :Cannot connect to compute 'GNS3 VM (GNS3 VM)' with request POST /projects. How can i fix it? thanks
David excuse me, I followed the steps you gave in the video, but I don't know what is really going on and what is causing this behavior: after installing and integrating gns3 vm with gns3 gui, I see that when I run my gns3 application, gns3 vm also starts correctly but the gns3 gui control panel only identifies my local server which turns green but not my GNS3 VM. Consequence GNS3 Gui still works on my local server (i.e. my physical host) without the Gns3 Vm, but I want to resolve this issue to now run my topologies on the virtual server installed on vmware. Please help me solve this problem.
I have an issue when I use Gns3 2.2.9 and VMware Workstation Pro 10.5.6. Gn3 GUI can not connect to the VMware I see that 2.2.10 is released. So I'm going to try it.
I have to say I'm not a fan of the Solarwinds additions in GNS3 now pushes during an install. Mandatory email address for info, then another suggestion at the end. Neither of which is even required for the actual install to work. Solarwinds sales reps have called me on my own phone, constantly emailed me they're very aggressive. I've learned to give fake phone numbers or email. Their products are good but they are ruining their reputation by being so aggressive. edit: I see they bought GNS3 in 2016....urgh
I have stop W10 firewall, but it the same, servers summary green, but interfaces doesn't connect each over, even 3 vpcs with a switch (ping work not all the time between each other) and if I ask a router to do dhcp, vpcs take dhcp of wmnet8 not the router. What should I do ?
If you use VMWare Workstation Player you need to follow the instructions at docs.gns3.com/1OB0_9M-_QyQZTlC1eY_Dc60BgwjU2bXGdnf-B7Uf_u4/index.html#h.u541n3ko612z which state "The free version of VMware doesn’t provide vmrun the command line utility for controlling VMware your need to download it for free from www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/"

If you're watching this and it's not working for you, that's because you're using VMware workstation 15, the current version.
Using VMware workstation player 14 with VIX 1.17 will work. You have to navigate the vmware website to find the version 14 (its buried, but its there) and version 1.17.

THEN...well, I still didn't get vmrun to ever work, so I just manually opened vmware player 14...not a huge deal to me.
USING VMWARE PLAYER 15 IS NOT CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED, I found all this info on the GNS3 forums.

that is, as of this current date 11/10/2019.
I also can't think of a different workaround for anyone using Intel, but AMD users can just use Virtual Box as it now supports nested virtualization for AMD processors (apparently doesn't work with Intel yet?)
Please not that 15.5 works now. See this: gns3.com/community/discussion/gns3-with-workstation-player-15-

unknown error, please try again. if the problem persists, please contact vmware technical support and provide c:\users\user\appdata\local\temp\vmware-user\ovftool.log
I’m running this on a surface pro 4. The vm did not load initially.
Error: “virtualized intel by-c/EPT, is not supported on this platform”
I had to disable this in the VM settings. And I also needed to uncheck “Hyper visor “ in windows 10. This seems to have fixed the problem.
I have installed the VMware workstation player 16 and downloaded GNS3 VM, both GNS3 and GNS3 VN are at the same version 2.2.21 but for any reason from GNS3, it doesn't start only my local server (my laptop). I have chosen the GNS3 VM option to run appliances in a virtual machine as recommend, but the GNS3 VN doesn't t run (it is still halted on gray, while my laptop is green). Any t-shoot on this or I need to download the Vmware Workstation Pro?
Hello David - I have a question- there are two pop up I can't seem to get rif of.
1. the pop up with IP address, login in to SS.. I hit OK to that then the
2. the GNS3 Information, Channel keep poping up. I can't seem to close. Everytimr I hit OK.
it keep going to the cycle... I'm dont know how to make them go away.
Thank you sir!
Sorry, i do the same what you say in this video but when i restart gns3 again and wait to gns3vm
This error comes to me :Cannot connect to compute 'GNS3 VM (GNS3 VM)' with request POST /projects.
How can i fix it? thanks
Hi Mr David Bombal, I have installed GNS3 VM but the IP address not appear "eth0 is not configured". could you tell me please how to fix it?.
Another great tutorial: my project for this weekend 👍
P.S. Awesome looking chair; unique head rest.
Thank you Orley.
David excuse me, I followed the steps you gave in the video, but I don't know what is really going on and what is causing this behavior:
after installing and integrating gns3 vm with gns3 gui, I see that when I run my gns3 application, gns3 vm also starts correctly but the gns3 gui control panel only identifies my local server which turns green but not my GNS3 VM.
Consequence GNS3 Gui still works on my local server (i.e. my physical host) without the Gns3 Vm, but I want to resolve this issue to now run my topologies on the virtual server installed on vmware.
Please help me solve this problem.
I have an issue when I use Gns3 2.2.9 and VMware Workstation Pro 10.5.6. Gn3 GUI can not connect to the VMware
I see that 2.2.10 is released. So I'm going to try it.
I have to say I'm not a fan of the Solarwinds additions in GNS3 now pushes during an install. Mandatory email address for info, then another suggestion at the end. Neither of which is even required for the actual install to work. Solarwinds sales reps have called me on my own phone, constantly emailed me they're very aggressive. I've learned to give fake phone numbers or email. Their products are good but they are ruining their reputation by being so aggressive. edit: I see they bought GNS3 in 2016....urgh
great work and thanks... will watch the others as well :)
Nice as always.
Thank you
An idea why the VM doesn't have the status of green even though it starts properly from the client? Running 2.2.15
ur tutorials helps us so much!!have u any clue why gns3 VM doesnt turn on green led even if VMware workstation succeed ubuntu ?? 2.2.19 vrs
This is extremely helpful and to the point thank you!
Glad to hear it!
I have stop W10 firewall, but it the same, servers summary green, but interfaces doesn't connect each over, even 3 vpcs with a switch (ping work not all the time between each other) and if I ask a router to do dhcp, vpcs take dhcp of wmnet8 not the router.
What should I do ?
If you use VMWare Workstation Player you need to follow the instructions at docs.gns3.com/1OB0_9M-_QyQZTlC1eY_Dc60BgwjU2bXGdnf-B7Uf_u4/index.html#h.u541n3ko612z which state "The free version of VMware doesn’t provide vmrun the command line utility for controlling VMware your need to download it for free from www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/"
Great video. Can you please paste the link for GNS3 VM installation on ESXi. Thanks
