虽然PT5.3全系列的下载地址已经放出(点击这里),但是一直没有验证使用效果,特别是首次发布的Linux版本,今天就以Ubuntu 10.10作为平台来体验一下:
我们已经事先下载好了 PacketTracer53_Ubuntu.tar.gz 安装包;
然后执行命令
sudo tar -xvf PacketTracer53_Ubuntu.tar.gz
这是将该tar包解压缩到当前文件夹;然后按照以下步骤安装即可:

- ENTITY THAT YOU REPRESENT (COLLECTIVELY, “USER”) TO THIS END USER LICENSE
- AGREEMENT (“EULA”). The following terms of this EULA govern access to and use
- of the Software.
-
- License. Conditioned upon compliance with the terms and conditions of this
- EULA, Cisco Systems, Inc. (“Cisco”) grants to User a royalty free, personal,
- nonexclusive, nontransferable and revocable license to use the Cisco Packet
- Tracer software and related documentation (collectively, the “Software”) solely

-
- General Limitations. This is a license, not a transfer of title, to the
- Software and Cisco retains ownership of all copies of the Software. User
- acknowledges and agrees that Cisco and/or its suppliers own all right, title
- and interest in and to the Software, including without limitation, any and all
- copyrights, patents, trade secrets, trademarks and other intellectual property
- rights therein. Cisco has the exclusive right to apply for or register any
- patents, mask work rights, copyrights, or such other proprietary protections
- with respect to the Software. User will not earn or acquire any rights or
- licenses under any copyrights, patents, trade secrets, trademarks or other
- intellectual property rights on account of this EULA. Except as otherwise
- expressly provided under this EULA, User shall have no right, and User
- specifically agrees not to:
-
- (i) transfer, assign or sublicense its license rights to any other
- person or entity, and User acknowledges that any attempted transfer,
- assignment, sublicense or use shall be void;
-
- (ii) make error corrections to or otherwise modify or adapt the
- Software or create derivative works (excluding Activities) based upon
- the Software, or permit third parties to do the same;
-
- (iii) reverse engineer or decompile, decrypt, disassemble or otherwise
- reduce the Software to human-readable form, except to the extent
- otherwise expressly permitted under applicable law notwithstanding this
- restriction;
-
- (iv) use or permit the Software to be used to perform services for
- third parties, whether on a service bureau or time sharing basis or
- otherwise, without the express written authorization of Cisco; or
-
- (v) disclose, provide, or otherwise make available trade secrets
- contained within the Software in any form to any third party without
- the prior written consent of Cisco. User shall implement reasonable
- security measures to protect such trade secrets.
-
- To the extent required by law, and at User’s written request, Cisco shall
- provide User with the interface information needed to achieve interoperability
- between the Software and another independently created program, on payment of
- Cisco’s applicable fee, if any. User shall observe strict obligations of
- confidentiality with respect to such interface information and shall use such
- interface information in compliance with any reasonable terms and conditions
- upon which Cisco makes such interface information available.
-
- Software, Upgrades and Additional Copies. For purposes of this EULA, “Software”
- shall include (and the terms and conditions of this EULA shall apply to)
- computer programs, as provided to User by Cisco or an authorized agent and any
- upgrades, updates, bug fixes or modified versions thereto (collectively,
- “Upgrades”) or backup copies of the Software permitted hereunder.
- NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS EULA: (1) USER HAS NO LICENSE OR
- RIGHT TO USE ANY UPGRADES OR ADDITIIONAL COPIES UNLESS USER, AT THE TIME OF
- ACQUIRING SUCH COPY OR UPGRADE, ALREADY HOLDS A VALID LICENSE TO THE ORIGINAL
- SOFTWARE; AND (2) THE MAKING AND USE OF ADDITIONAL COPIES IS LIMITED TO
- NECESSARY BACKUP PURPOSES ONLY.
-
- Proprietary Notices. User agrees to maintain and reproduce all copyright and
- other proprietary notices on all copies, in any form, of the Software in the
- same form and manner that such copyright and other proprietary notices are
- included on the Software. Except as expressly authorized in this EULA, User
- shall not make any copies or duplicates of any Software without the prior
- written permission of Cisco.
-
- Term and Termination. Provided User complies with the terms and conditions
- of this EULA, the license granted herein shall remain in effect for so long
- as User remains a Permitted End User, as determined by Cisco in its sole
- discretion. User may terminate this EULA and the license at any time by
- destroying all copies of the Software. User’s rights under this EULA will
- terminate immediately without notice from Cisco if User fails to comply with
- any provision of this EULA. Upon termination, User shall destroy all copies of
- Software in its possession or control. All confidentiality obligations of User
- and all limitations of liability and disclaimers and restrictions of warranty
- shall survive termination of this EULA. In addition, the provisions of the
- sections titled “U.S. Government End User Purchasers” and “General Terms
- Applicable to the Limited Warranty Statement and Software License” shall
- survive termination of this EULA.
-
- Export. The Software, including technical data, may be subject to U.S. export
- control laws, including the U.S. Export Administration Act and its associated
- regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other
- countries. User agrees to comply strictly with all such regulations and
- acknowledges that it has the responsibility to obtain licenses to export,
- re-export, or import the Software.
-
- U.S. Government End User Purchasers. The Software qualifies as “commercial
- items,” as that term is defined at Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”)
- (48 C.F.R.) 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “commercial
- computer software documentation” as such terms are used in FAR 12.212.
- Consistent with FAR 12.212 and DoD FAR Supp. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, and
- notwithstanding any other FAR or other contractual clause to the contrary in
- any agreement into which this EULA may be incorporated, User may provide to
- Government end user or, if this agreement is direct, Government end user will
- acquire, the Software with only those rights set forth in this EULA. Use of
- the Software constitutes agreement by the Government that the Software and
- related documentation are “commercial computer software” and “commercial
- computer software documentation,” and constitutes acceptance of the rights and
- restrictions herein.
-
- No Warranty
- THE SOFTWARE FURNISHED UNDER THIS EULA IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS, WITHOUT
- ANY WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR
- STATUTORY; INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF QUALITY, PERFORMANCE,
- NONINFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NOR ARE
- THERE ANY WARRANTIES CREATED BY A COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR
- TRADE USAGE. CISCO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET USER’S NEEDS OR
- WILL BE FREE FROM ERRORS, OR THAT THE OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE
- UNINTERRUPTED. THE FOREGOING EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS ARE AN ESSENTIAL PART
- OF THIS EULA AND FORMED THE BASIS FOR DETERMINING THE FEES CHARGED FOR THE
- SOFTWARE.
-
- Disclaimer of Liabilities. REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN
- FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, IN NO EVENT WILL CISCO OR ITS
- SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST REVENUE, PROFIT, OR LOST OR DAMAGED DATA,
- NETWORK FAILURE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF CAPITAL, OR FOR SPECIAL,
- INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HOWEVER CAUSED AND
- REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY OR WHETHER ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR
- INABILITY TO USE SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE AND EVEN IF CISCO OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR
- LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no event
- shall Cisco’s or its suppliers’ or licensors’ liability to User, whether in
- contract, tort (including negligence), breach of warranty, or otherwise, exceed
- the price paid by User for the Software that gave rise to the claim or if the
- Software is part of another Product, the price paid for such other Product.
- BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF
- CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
-
- User agrees that the limitations of liability and disclaimers set forth herein
- will apply regardless of whether User has accepted the Software or any other
- product or service delivered by Cisco. User acknowledges and agrees that Cisco
- has granted the licenses and entered into this relationship in reliance upon
- the disclaimers of warranty and the limitations of liability set forth herein,
- that the same reflect an allocation of risk between the parties (including the
- risk that a contract remedy may fail of its essential purpose and cause
- consequential loss), and that the same form an essential basis of the bargain
- between the parties.
-
- General. The EULA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
- laws of the State of California, without reference to or application of
- choice of law rules or principles. The United Nations Convention on the
- International Sale of Goods shall not apply. If any portion hereof is found to
- be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the EULA shall remain in
- full force and effect. Except as expressly provided herein, this EULA
- constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the
- license of the Software and supersedes any conflicting or additional terms
- contained in any purchase order or elsewhere, all of which terms are excluded.
- This EULA has been written in the English language, and the parties agree that
- the English version will govern. User waives any rights User may have under
- the law of User’s country or province to have this EULA written in any language
- other than English.

看看程序界面(这还是我们在Perference菜单——Font选项卡更改过字体以后呢!),真是吓人一跳,字体显示一团糟,应该是Ubuntu对PT5.3所采用的集中默认字体的渲染支持很糟糕的原因,PT5.3的Linux版本应该就是直接将开发源代码拿到Linux下来编译的,Cisco根本就没有考虑到Linux对微软Windows下面的字体一向排斥,造成很多字体显示丑陋!
看来我们有必要给Cisco去封邮件反馈一下了!
使用软件的感觉和Windows下版本完全相同,所以软件的源代码应该是一样的!就是显示出了点小问题。
