GNS3 MARKETPLACE INSTALL

The first, VL19 is used as routed segment for the inside interfaces of my firewalls. Follow along, start to finish, with the video at the end of this post.įor this lab, I have (2) VLANs on my switch, VLAN19 and VLAN10. The goal of this post is to get (2) FTDs registered to a management center, configure basic IP addressing, fail over, NAT, and routing.

(2) Firepower Threat Defense Virtual for KVM (FTDv) (1) Virtual switch (CumulusOS for me, but IOSvL2 or the Etherswitch module works fine) (1) Windows 2012 R2 Server (used as domain controller later, and jumphost now) (1) Firepower Management Center Virtual for KVM (FMCv) with a GNS3 floppy device or a second DVD drive in your guest).

GNS3 MARKETPLACE INSTALL

Just like if you were installing Windows Server and didn't have the drivers for your paritcular RAID controller, you'll need to make those drivers available during install (i.e. If you've never built a windows guest in GNS3, the downloads for virtIO drivers are here. *RECOMMENDATION* Try to use virtIO devices/drivers where and whenever possible (especially if you plan on using a Windows Server GNS3 guest). That said, below I'll list what I'm using for this lab and some screenshots of my settings in GNS3. Again, the qcow2 images are available for download from Cisco. While there are appliances available for download from the GNS3 marketplace, I found it easier to just build my own custom images. Even better, you can enable 90-day trial licensing to test most of the features and there are KVM appliances available making it even easier to run them on a GNS3 Server. Lucky for us, at least those of us with valid CCO accounts, there are virtual appliances for both FTD as well as the Management Center available for download. This is as true (if not more) with Cisco's Next-Generation Firewall, Firepower (FirePOWER?) Threat Defense.
