How many routers and switches do I need for the NP lab?
I am currently using GNS3/Dynamips when I am away from my lab, and adito vpn to telnet/rdp to my lab.
This are the current setup I have at the moment.
3 2950
1 2651XM
3 2611XM
1 2621 (frame-relay switch)
2 7960 IP Phone
2 2940 IP Phone
They're all maxed memory, and running a 12.4 T IOS except for the frame-relay switch.
What type of L3 switch will I need? that will at least support POE.
Thanks

A couple 3550s would be a nice addition. Dynamips can also help out a lot. -

Thanks for the response do you know if this 3550 supports POE? also what GBIC/fibre cable do I need ? I would love to use that as my trunk, as I've never touched the GBIC at work yet. -
