Hello,
I am attempting to recreate our live network on GNS3. Problem is no matter where I look, I can't seem to find the files to load into GNS3 to use Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches. We have ASA 5516x, Catalyst 9k, 3k, and 2k's running on the network. When I get to websites that says they have the files, it leads to other links that doesn't go anywhere.
Initially I thought loading the IOS bin file from Cisco.com was the way but GNS3 doesn't recognize that file when I try to load it and won't even show up in browse files. Anyone have links to these specific Catalyst Switch images that can be loaded into GNS3?

There is GNS3 forum where you can ask /do research. Currently I use CML. In the past I used to use GNS3 with routing 7200 image only and EVE for switching L2/L3. I guess MHM answer is the best since he uses GNS3 everyday now.
Regards, ML
