Hi to all,
When i choose generic driver i get the message no generic driver is selected (invalid settings detected).
Please see the attachement.
How to fix the problem. I am trying to emulate two VM in GNS3.

Please advise,
Regards,
Chris

Have you tried actually entering the driver name directly?

No, I have not.
I thought it should appear as an option to choose.
Your advise is to manually enter UDPTunnel as name of generic driver?
I'll check it and will give my feedback.

Thanks in advance,

What exactly are you trying to do with the "Generic Driver" feature anyway? AFAICT at the moment it appears to be just a stub for future features that will be able to communicate with the VM using the programming APIs. You can't use it like the other "consumer grade" networking modes.

I placed two VM in GNS3.
These VM are running JunOS.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I connect vm to cisco router I can ping (generally get connectivity for routing protocols) but when I try to do same between two VM interfaces I can't get connectivity - ping fails , no routing protocol is able to establish.

I found during my research that it is common known issue and that it was to be solved with UDPTunnel.
So basically what I am trying to achive is to get my GNS3 inter CISCO - Juniper lab.

GNS3 has a detailed example on how to user their software with VirtualBox.

However - I would ignore their suggestion to use linked clones. Use full clones, and yes that will indeed use more disk space in the short term. In the longer term it will work out about the same disk space wise, but be much more reliable in the meantime.

Thank you for responses.
I will check it tomorrow and will give feedback.

Chris
