GNS3 Official Release: GNS3 0.7.2
Written by LBSources from http://www.gns3-labs.com on June 16th, 2010 | 9 CommentsYesterday the GNS3 team released the latest version of GNS3 in which a virtual host was introduced among plenty of other new features and fixes.
The most anticipated addition is the virtual host capability. I’ve had the chance to debug this myself and I must say it works great! I’m kind of use to vpcs, but if you havent figured that out and would like to simulate hosts in GNS3, just download the new version and have fun!
Onto the release post..

GNS3 0.7.2 is released. Here is a list of the changes in this version:
* Lot of small fixes (relative paths, link removal, .net loading, Ethernet switch connection to a Cloud etc.)
* Qemuwrapper: random MAC address for devices
* NPE-G2 option for c7200 routers (need a specific and uncompressed IOS image and C7200-IO-2FE, C7200-IO-GE-E, PA-2FE-TX and PA-GE are unlikely to work)
* Simulated switches: daisy chaining support
* Improved directory selection for new projects
* New translations: Bulgarian, Italian and Ukrainian
* Frame Relay capture option for all serial links
* Dialog to display an Ethernet switch MAC address table
The following features will work only with a Dynamips version > 0.2.8 RC2 which has not been released yet:
* OIR (Online Insertion and Removal) for c3660 and c3745 (only NM-4T).
* JIT sharing support (saves memory).
* C7200-JC-PA Jacket Card support. Allow the use of a slot 7 for c7200 routers with NPE-G2.
* QinQ support for simulated Ethernet switches.
* Interfaces statistics (Packets in, Packets out, Bytes in, Bytes out). Displayed in node tooltips.
Also, we provide a small Qemu image of Microcore Linux 2.10, ready to be used in GNS3 and which includes ssh, iptables, iproute, tcpdump and IPv6 support. A small integrated simple host that supports pings is planified for the next release as well as some surprises 
Not every translations have been updated so far but we will release a separate package containing the translation when there are up-to-date.
Thanks to all our translators, beta-testers, moderators and users which make GNS3 beter after each version.
Enjoy!
Jeremy

The Tiny or Micro Core both not Pinging outside. Everything else work well. I tested on Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows XP SP3 but no Result. Its Executes Interface loaded up but the Host not Pinging each other. If any one have Information please reply me on my Email. otherwise i Install latest Dynamips RC and Qemu all the Packages but no result for Host Pinging. Looping is fine for Routers they ping each other.
Thank you
