The VPCS can simulate up to 9 PCs. You can ping/traceroute them, or
ping/traceroute the other hosts/routers from the virtual PCs when you study the
Cisco routers in the Dynamips. VPCS is not the traditional PC, it is just a
program running on the Linux or FreeBSD, and only few network commands can be
used in it. But VPCS can give you a big hand when you study the Cisco devices in
the Dynamips. VPCS can replace the routers or VMware boxes which are used as PCs
in the Dynamips network. It can save your CPU/Memory. It is very small.
VPCS can be run in udp or ether mode. In the udp mode, VPCS sends or receives
the packets via udp. In the ether mode, via /dev/tap.

cleanup: Remove expired ports:
2021-10-27 emulators/vpcs: Upstream unmaintained
2021-10-27 devel/google-gdata: Google is no longer using GoogleData APIs
2021-10-27 net/irrd-legacy: Use net/irrd
emulators/vpcs: Mark DEPRECATED
- Upstream unmaintained
- Requires a complete rewrite to build on modern compilers
- There are other alternatives like booting up nanobsd images instead
of using an emulator
