List of Compatible Images with GNS3 Cisco 7200 Series

The Cisco 7200 series is one of the most popular routers used in network simulation and emulation, thanks to its powerful processing capabilities and extensive support for various network protocols. In this article, we will explore the list of compatible images that can be used with the GNS3 Cisco 7200 series.

Currently, only 15.x images are supported by the Cisco 7200 series in GNS3. However, there are some Cisco 15.x IOS images that are also supported by GNS3. Additionally, you can run Cisco XR images that work with virtualBox, VMware, and KVM with GNS3.

One of the unique features of GNS3 is its ability to emulate various router images directly or through virtual machines.
