Integrated EVE-NG,GNS3 and HCL to Build a Multi-vendor Network Simulation Experiment Platform
In response to the issue that EVE-NG and GNS3 simulation platforms mainly simulate Cisco devices,while HCL simulation platforms can only simulate H3C devices,and actual engineering projects often cover multiple vendor devices,this paper explores the integration of EVE-NG,GNS3,HCL and other network simulators with local physical network cards to build a network simulation experimental platform that integrates multiple vendor devices and can be used for actual network engineering projects. This article not only provides the basic principles of bridging and integrating the three network simulators mentioned above,but also outlines the specific bridging process with the local physical network card. After testing,it was confirmed that the integrated network simulation platform is compatible with simulating the operation of multi-vendor network devices.
