  • 1.  Issues with GNS3 Intergration

     Not sure who can help me with this or can direct me in the direction of someone who can, but I am trying to build the Aruba AOS-CX switch simulator in my lab using GNS3.  When I go to GNS3 per the instructions from the Airheads site, to import the appliance using the below file I get the error shown at the bottom of  this email in GNS.  I am by no means a coder, so any idea what this means?   Thanks in advance.

    REST API can be simulated, providing a lightweight development platform to building the modern network. This

    software can be easily implemented in the GNS3 simulation software to enable drag and drop network design

    To unlock you, you may edit the file and change the description to a very minimum, so that you don't hit this issue which seems linked to CR coding.

    Hi, 
    I had the same issue today, the problem here is that the "description" field have line breaks after copied from the pdf, and it should be a single line. Because of this, the file is not readable. Just edit the description field to become a single line, and it should work.
