[c-nsp] VIRL vs GNS3 vs Else for Automation practicing

[Muhtashim Ayub]

I'm using GNS3 it works fine and it's multi-vendor. 

You can spin up a Linux Docker VM and use that to run everything and connect into different devices. 

There are also decent courses on the GNS3 academy that take you through it all.

Hi,

I'd like to practice automation, specifically Ansible on different network operating systems, Cisco, Cumulus, Juniper.

VIRL costs money but it has the IOS images bundled, GNS3 doesnt but i'll have to find the images, other than that, does anyone have any feedback ?

Thanks
