Cool! Downloading it now.

Edit: Well it wasn't all that I was expecting it to be after a quick glance

You can only do a few CCNP things in it, not very much at all though. You can redistribute, but no BGP or IS-IS, no policy, distribute or route-maps. The have a L3 switch, but no HSRP, GLBP or VRRP, only saw etherchannel. Nothing to truly mess with wireless. Does look like you can link it into someone else's lab though.

Ahhh Shux, so we won't be able to practice MPLS stuff with version 5.0?

Nope, doesn't seem you can do VPN stuff either.

Being able to link into somebody elses lab is quite a nice feature though if it does have it.

Are you an Academy student as well? I just logged into the Academy and it was on the left.
