To reduce this annoyance, you can move the GNS3 Jungle panel out of the main GUI window as a separate window. The “GNS3 Jungle” panel cannot be closed.
The new GNS3 1.3 GUI includes a panel that displays news from the GNS3 Jungle web forum. Select style from the Style selector box. To change GUI styles, use the menu command: Edit → Preferences. The “Legacy” style replicates the look and feel of the GNS3 0.8 GUI. The “Classic” theme uses the same flat icons but is a lighter style.
The default style is “Charcoal”, which is a dark theme with “Flat”-style icons. GNS3 1.3 supports three styles for the GNS3 GUI. Also, the annoying “GNS3 Jungle” panel has been added. But the graphical design of the icons and color schemes have changed. The GNS3 1.x gaphical user interface is still mostly the same as in GNS3 0.8.7. Open-source router and host appliances are available as either QEMU appliances or VirtualBox appliances.

What’s new in GNS3 1.xīelow, I describe the new GNS3 1.x features in two sections. In this post, I will look at the new version 1.3.7 of GNS3 and evaluate how it works with emulated routers and hosts running open-source software. I was happy to support the Kickstarter campaign and now I am finally getting around to taking a look at the new version of GNS3. In 2014, the GNS3 development team launched a successful Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to support development of a major new release, version 1.0, which was released in October that same year.
