Hello and welcome to this lecture in this lecture we are starting the discussion, very important, on how 1
we can practice the whole course practice activities to say so on your own laptop Windows or Mac OSX. 2
Both options are touched. 3
So the first thing you have to do is go on Udemy page and look for my name Ciprian STROE and I have prepared 4
a new course which is free by the way. 5
Build your own networking learning environment on GNS3. 6
So please navigate to Udemy.com then look for my course. 7
Build your own networking learning environment on GNS3 and enroll again. 8
It's a free course. 9
Now if you're going the course content you'll see that currently it has three sections. 10
So while I say currently because it's it's very dynamic course and I'm adding lectures on a daily basis 11
weekly basis. 12
It depends on the need of all of my current courses and future ones so I want to make very very clear 13
to everyone. 14
This course will help my students and other students. 15
It doesn't matter on how it can set up your laptop again Windows or Mac OS in order to practice all 16
of the topics in the networking courses. 17
So with all that said let's get started. 18
So in section 2 GNS3 installation on a Windows PC you'll have all the lectures needed in order 19
to download and install the GNS3 on a PC then integrate it the GNS3 VM integrate it with the 20
the GUI the graphical user interface. 21
And then we will move into how are you going to install all of the appliances so running VM images inside 22
GNS3. 23
We will start with Cisco devices and go to go to the installation of the Router Layer 3. 24
Basically IOSv then the switch IOSv and then ASAv so adaptive security appliance then you learn how 25
to connect a Windows VM to your network topology connect your whole topology to the real Internet and 26
specifically to this course install and use the Fortinet firewall and also integrate Fortinet Fortimanager appliance 27
so after you have successfully gone through all these lectures and have also successfully set up your 28
windows or mac os PC Yes. 29
For GNS3 you will be able to run basically all the all the scenarios in this course and future 30
ones that are yet to come. 31
So after you do this please join me in the next lecture. 32
Where we will build exactly the the lab topology that you need to build in order to practice the 33
lab activities. 34
So thank you for your time and see you in the next lecture.
