UNetLab is a new generation software for networking lab. It can be considered the next major version of iou-web, but the software has been rewritten from scratch. The major advantage over GNS3 and iou-web itself is about multi-hypervisor support within a single entity. UNetLab allows to design labs using IOU, Dynamips and QEMU nodes without dealing with multi virtual machines: everything run inside a UNetLab host, and a lab is a single file including all information needed.

UNetLab includes QEMU 2.1.2 (default) and QEMU 1.3.1 (for IPS) configured and compiled with the following line:
./configure --prefix=/opt/qemu --target-list="i386-softmmu x86_64-softmmu" --enable-sdl --enable-vnc --disable-xen --enable-curses --enable-kvm --enable-uuid

For QEMU 0.13, must:
- manually add to Makefile and Makefile.target: 
    LIBS+=-lz -lrt -lm
- add to qemu-common.h the following lines:
    #define BIT(n) (1 << (n))
    #define BITS(n, m) (((0xffffffffU << (31 - n)) >> (31 - n + m)) << m)

QEMU for ESXi has been modified. See the patch for more information.

Kernel has been patched and recompiled to allow LLDP and LACP frames been forwarded by linux bridges. Patch has been provided by Bernhard Thaler (http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bridge/2015-January/009291.html).
