# Cisco Packet Tracer latest version on Fedora
[Watch this script in action](https://youtu.be/iOiwRt_P95Y)
Easily install Cisco Packet Tracer latest version on Fedora. This installation script automatically detects a Cisco Packet Tracer `.deb` in any directory on user home.
## Install
Follow these steps to easily install:
- Download the Packet Tracer installer from [Cisco's download page](https://www.netacad.com/resources/lab-downloads?courseLang=en-US) and save it in any directory on `/home` using the default filename.
- Clone this repo to your system
- `cd` into the cloned repo and make the install script executable: `chmod +x setup.sh`
- Run `bash setup.sh` **or** `sudo bash setup.sh` and relax. If you not use `sudo`, you can receive no permission alerts when the script looks for installers on you HOME. Only ignore.
Now, the script accepts command line options:
- `-d` or `--directory` allows you to specify a path to the installer. This can turn the script more fast preventing to makes big searchs in the entire user home directory;
- `-h` will show help about the script;
- `--uninstall` uninstall installed Cisco Packet Tracer.
