GNS3 is a Graphical Network Simulator that allows emulation of complex networks. You may be familiar with VMWare or Virtual PC that are used to emulate various operating systems in a virtual environment. These programs allow you to run operating systems such as Windows XP Professional or Ubuntu Linux in a virtual environment on your computer. GNS3 allows the same type of emulation using Cisco Internetwork Operating Systems. It allows you to run a Cisco IOS in a virtual environment on your computer. GNS3 is a graphical front end to a product called Dynagen. Dynamips is the core program that allows IOS emulation. Dynagen runs on top of Dynamips to create a more user friendly, text-based environment. A user may create network topologies using simple Windows ini-type files with Dynagen running on top of Dynamips. GNS3 takes this a step further by providing a graphical environment.

The most significant differences between Microsoft’s Network Access Protection architecture and other NAC architectures you see in the iLabs come because Microsoft does not make switches or routers. Therefore, the path for handling enforcement is different, focusing on server enforcement and standards-based switch enforcement. The original intent of MS-NAP was not security, but to find and quarantine non-compliant clients in the enterprise LAN. As the interest in NAC has increased, Microsoft has adjusted their architecture to include more enforcement mechanisms. In early 2007, the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) and Microsoft announced interoperability between TNC and NAP thus opening the door for a single unified Network Access Control client
