现在dynamips能支持的IOS越来越多,我们可以用来搭建的网络环境也越来越大,但是随着我们模拟的CISCO网络的增大,我们PC的内存开始吃紧,更何况有些实验中我们需要有多台PC来配合.于是很多人采取vmware+dynamips来做这些实验.VM是内存大户,于是有了VPC.
VPC不同于microsoft的Virtual PC,是一个很小的小程序,只有几十KB大小.大家可以使用VPC和dynamsip来配合做一些综合实验.
以下内容为VPC的说明文档.

Virtual PC Simulator
The VPCS can simulate up to 9 PCs. You can ping/traceroute them, or ping/traceroute the other hosts/routers from the virtual PCs when you study the Cisco routers in the Dynamips. VPCS is not the traditional PC, it is just a program running on the Linux or Windows, and only few network commands can be used in it. But VPCS can give you a big hand when you study the Cisco devices in the Dynamips. VPCS can replace the routers or VMware boxes which are used as PCs in the Dynamips network.
Try VPCS, it can save your CPU/Memory. It is very small.
Now, VPCS can be run in udp or ether mode. In the udp mode, VPCS sends or receives the packets via udp. In the ether mode, via /dev/tap, not support on the Windows.
Install
Latest version is 0.13a, download and unpack it.
vpcs.exe is windows program. vpcs is linux program, maybe you need chmod +x vpcs
Usage
vpcs [options]
-u udp mode, default
-e tap mode, using /dev/tapx
-s port local udp port, default from 20000
-c port remote udp port(dynamips udp ports), default from 30000
-r file run startup file VPCS 1 >?
show Print the net configuration of PCs.
d Switch to the PC[d], d is digit, range 1 to 9.
hist List the history command, use arrow keys to get
recently-executed commands.
ip address gateway [CIDR] Set the host’s ip, gateway’s ip and network mask.
In the ether mode, the ip of the tapx is the maximum
host ID of the subnet. Default CIDR is 24.
ip 10.1.1.70 10.1.1.65 26
set the host ip to 10.1.1.70,
the gateway ip to 10.1.1.65,
the tapx ip is 10.1.1.126,
the netmask is 255.255.255.192.
ping address Ping the network host.
tracert address [maxhops] Print the route packets take to network host.
default maxhops is 64.
conf [lport|rport] port Set local or remote port in the udp mode. ‘conf lport’
will close the previous port and reopen the local port.
? Print help.
quit Quit and close all the port(udp mode) or the tapx(ether mode). Do you remember Mr. Mike Muuss?If in the ether mode, please run it before the dynamips loads/starts the ios.
When VPCS started, it listens the ports from 20000 to 20008 and wait the dymamips to connet, and send the packets to the ports from 30000 to 30008 which should be listened by the Dynamips.
VPCS looks for the file named ‘startup.vpc’ in the current directory, and execute the commands in it if you are not set the startup file from the command line. All the commands in the startup file are the internal command of the VPCS. The line started with ‘#’ or ‘!’ will be discarded.

To make compatible with dynamips, VPCS does NOT use the cygwin1.dll released by cygwin.com. The two files conflicted.
You should run VPCS before starting the dynamips while using ether mode. VPCS opens the tap interfaces. And you should know, VPCS will CLOSE the tap interfaces before quit.
