Graphical Network Simulator 3

== Detailed Description ==
GNS3 is a graphical network simulator that allows you to design
complex network topologies. You may run simulations or configure
devices ranging from simple workstations to powerful routers.
GNS3 support multiple emulators, the target for this feature is to
package GNS3 and make it usable with QEMU/KVM and Docker, the user may
choose to use 3rd party virtualization / emulation solution.

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Packaging of GNS3

* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change)

* Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change)

* List of deliverables: N/A (not a System Wide Change)

* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)

* Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)

Is there any integration to be done from
qemu/docker/libvirt/systemd-nspawn side?

Googling around, it doesn't sound like this is something that needs work on
the qemu side, more that it can use a properly configured qemu VM as a node in
the network topology. I'm not positive though...

No special integration is needed for QEMU/KVM, it works
out-of-the-box, it only need a qemu with udp tunnel support (which is
included in fedora).

I need to check that for EPEL.

I didn't test docker support yet.

Best regards.
