Use the above download links to directly download the packet tracer, unlike Cisco official website, which requires you to sign-in prior download. Also, Cisco official website only offers the latest version of packet tracer; if you wish to download the older versions, say, in case you wish to use a feature which the latest version has discontinued.


Packet tracer works on simplified IOS. In case some commands do not work on packet tracer but have significance in real world devices then, its due to the simplified IOS, it works only on limited set of useful commands. You can use some the more advanced simulator software such GNS3 to use all commands as the real world devices.
