Virtual PC Simulator, or VPC is a simulator for GNS3 that allows simulation of up to 9 PCs. This program allows the user to ping or traceroute the PCs, or the other hosts/routers from the virtual PCs while running Dynamips.
This program only allows a few network commands such as:
- ip address
- show
- hist
- dhcp
- arp
- ping address
- echo
- conf port
- ?
- quit
However, even though you have saved your network topology and exported the configuration files that includes the IP addresses of each router, VPC does not save the details and has to be retyped again.
By looking at the .net file that is saved, it can show whether UDP or ethernet mode is used.
VPC, however, has no connection with Dynamips and Dynagen. It is just a program that allows the user to set IP addresses for PCs in a network topology in GNS3.

what is this? Is it part of dynamips?
