Dynamips is an emulator computer program that was written to emulate Cisco routers. It was developed by Christophe Fillot, who began working on it in August 2005. Dynamips runs on FreeBSD, Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. It emulates the hardware of the Cisco series routing platforms by directly booting an actual Cisco IOS software image into the emulator. Dynamips emulates Cisco platforms 1700, 2600, 2691, 3600, 3725, 3745, and 7200.
Authors of this document: Fabien Devaux, Christophe Fillot, MtvE, Gordon Russell, Jeremy Grossmann and Flávio J. Saraiva. This is a continuation of Dynamips, based on the last development version and improved with patches wrote by various people from the community. This fork was named Dynamips-community up to the 0.2.8-community release and renamed to the original Dynamips on the 0.2.9 release. You can compile two different versions of Dynamips with this code. Edit the Makefile to set the flags to suit your environment. One of the flags, DYNAMIPS CODE, can be "stable" or "unstable". Stable contains the same code as Unstable, minus some mips64 bit optimisations and tcb code which seems to trigger instability on a number of platforms. You should probably use stable unless you have a very good reason. Dynamips now uses the CMake build system. To compile Dynamips you will need CMake and a working GCC or Clang compiler, as well as the build dependencies. On Debian based systems the following build dependencies are required and can be installed using apt-get: libelf-dev libpcap0.8-dev Similar packages should be available for most distributions, consult your distributions package list to find them. This will generate the Makefiles required for compiling Dynamips. To just build Dynamips simple run: is the directory used by your Cygwin mirror to download packages. It is possible that the libelf version differs from below. You will find dynamips.exe in the stable directory. Put cygwin1.dll from the Cygwin bin directory in the same directory as dynamips.exe to be able to start it from outside Cygwin terminal.

Dynamips is an emulator computer program that was written to emulate Cisco routers. It was developed by Christophe Fillot, who began working on it in August 2005. Dynamips runs on FreeBSD, Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. It emulates the hardware of the Cisco series routing platforms by directly booting an actual Cisco IOS software image into the emulator. Dynamips emulates Cisco platforms 1700, 2600, 2691, 3600, 3725, 3745, and 7200.
Although Dynamip's original development has been stalled since version 0.2.8-RC2, released in October 2007, development continues through the efforts of the GNS3 project and its volunteers; Dynamips is now up to version 0.2.17 on FreeBSD, 0.2.14-dev on Windows, Linux, and OS X, and remains on version 0.2.8-RC2 on Solaris. There are a few add-ons written for it, the most popular of which is Dynagen; a front-end add-on that allows the use of an INI configuration file to provision Dynamips emulator networks. Another popular add-on is GNS3, a graphical front end for Dynamips and Dynagen. The source code is licensed under the GNU GPL.
