Pull an ISO Image ?

EmpoweredBizTech

Hello I have a 2800 series router is there a way to pull the image off it so that it can be used on something line GNS3. It is a used router and I don't have any cisco support packages or anything. Any thoughts and feedback would be helpful. Thank you in advance

You can copy a image off of a router using the copy command (copy flash tftp), but 2800s are not and never will be supported under GNS3/Dynamips. 1800s and newer use proprietary chips for which there is no public documentation and therefor no one can write an emulator for them.

AHK, I finally get a router and can't use the image. What models are supported ?

Check out this list for all the details: Dynamips / Dynagen Tutorial

The tutorial is for dynagen (dynamips front end), but as you may know GNS3 is a GUI front end for dynagen, so pretty much anything in there also applies to GNS3.
