GNS3 Snapshot Operations

Create and manage snapshots of GNS3 project state. Save checkpoints before risky changes and restore to known-good states.

When to Use

• Saving project state before making experimental changes
• Creating checkpoints at key milestones (baseline, after config, etc.)
• Restoring to a previous state after a failed experiment
• Rolling back configuration mistakes
• Comparing different configurations by restoring snapshots
• Training scenarios with repeatable starting points

MCP Server

• Command: python3 -u mcp-servers/gns3-mcp-server/gns3_mcp_server.py (stdio transport)
