## Building
You need to install packer before.
### VirtualBox
Run:
```
./virtualbox.sh
```
This step will build the base VM as an OVA without install gns3 on it.
If you want to install GNS3 you need to unzip the OVA and run:
```
./release_virtualbox.sh 1.4.0 GNS3\ VM.ova
```
### VMware
Run:
```
./vmware.sh
```
For exporting to OVA you need to install:
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=OVFTOOL400&productId=353
This step will build the base VM as an OVA without install gns3 on it.
If you want to install GNS3 you need to unzip the OVA and run:
```
./release_vmware.sh 1.4.0 GNS3\ VM.ova
```
#### Upload to ESXi
```
ovftool --allowAllExtraConfig -dm=thin -ds=datastore1 "GNS3 VM.ova" "vi://root:PASSWORD@HOST"
```
