Hey guys & gals,

Whilst browsing the web I stumbled across this freely available CCNA router simulator called ToggIT 1.0 Router Simulator.

It's pretty good for people getting started and don't have the cash right off to buy equipment or a simulator. It covers the basics to access lists, rip, IGRP config etc. No switch config but hey what do you expect for nothing!

Download it for free, no trials....completely free from download.com or through this link.....enjoy!

Better yet, if you have access to an IOS image you can always download dynamips and dynagen. Completely free and the real thing to boot.

Not to mention with WinPcap it can interface with your lab equipment or home network via your PC's ethernet or wifi connection!

This was more aimed at beginners with no or little Cisco experience.

Most people when they start out do not have access to an IOS or routers and switches and it saves them forking out for some kit, routersim or boson straight away.

Good to get the wheels rolling as it were and as an interim measure until they want to commit to buying equipment and alike.

Another sim,

I posted this link a couple of days ago, but it got deleted. I thought it was helpful so I will try again. I stumbled across Netsimk, which is a pretty good sim for beginners.
