INSTALLATION for MAC Users

This section will walk you through the steps to get started with GNS3 in a MAC
environment.

Step 1 Download GNS3

The MAC installer is pretty painless. You locate a copy of GNS3 from our
website for MACs.

Step 2 Install GNS3


A downloaded MAC file will have the DMG package.

Enter Command + N

Go to your Application Folder

and drag the DMG file to the Applications area within your MAC

Once the GNS3 Icon is available in your Application Folder, you can now drag
that Icon to your Dock for ease of launching GNS3.

NOTE: On older versions of GNS3, there will be a note that this DMG package
depends on Python 2.7.x.

A newer version of Python is not backward compatible. Check your MAC to


see if you have Python installed. If you dont verify the python version level
supported with the GNS3 documentation.
