+# ipterm - Networking Toolbox
+
+This appliance contains the following networking tools:
+
+- net-tools (basic network administration tools)
+- iproute2 (advanced network administration tools)
+- ping and traceroute
+- iperf3
+- ssh client
+- tcpdump
+- telnet
+- mtools (multicast tools msend & mreceive),
+  see https://github.com/troglobit/mtools
+
+It is divided into several sub-images:
+
+- ipterm-base  
+  This image includes the common utilities mentioned previously.
+  It creates the foundation for the next images.
+  It's not intended, that the user directly uses this image.
+- ipterm  
+  Based on ipterm-base it sets bash as the default command and
+  uses /root as a persistent directory.
+- webterm  
+  This adds the Firefox web browser to ipterm-base.
+  Like ipterm, the /root directory is persistent.
+
+## Build and publish the Images
+
+First the base image has to be created:
+
+```
+docker build -t gns3/ipterm-base base
+docker push gns3/ipterm-base    (optional)
+```
+
+Afterwards the cli and/or the web image can be built:
+
+```
+docker build -t gns3/ipterm cli
+docker push gns3/ipterm
+```
+
+```
+docker build -t gns3/webterm web
+docker push gns3/webterm
+```
