Now you can connect to the nodes of a running GNS3 project without using lots of resources. Start the lab on a computer with adequate resources, then connect to the devices' consoles from other boxes. Share the lab and the learning experience!
Special thanks to the GNS3 team and the contributors.

- Check if all listed telnet / vnc programs open properly
- Improve error handling where the program just quits
- Mac support
Connect to those nodes only that you're legally entitled to! Some examples (non exhaustive list):
- You can connect to a free, open source product; e.g. Open vSwitch.
- You CAN'T connect to a Cisco IOS (or any other commercial product) if you don't have a valid service contract; not even if the person running the lab has.
If you're unsure, ask the person running the lab. Connecting to nodes you're not entitled to may result breaking the law, which is an act of the user; the developer of this product can't take responsibility for any misuse of the product.
