Hello Guys.

I need suggestions and advice on setting up a lab at home. Which equipments should i buy from A to Z and some references for labs. Thanks in advance.

There are a number of past posts on this site so you should start there. But for a quick start I would recommend the following:

2-3 2950 switches
2-3 26x0XM series routers (I have 2620XM's)
WIC-2T cards for each router
1 USB to serial converter cable if your laptop does not have a serial port

This is a good start for CCNA and should also work well for CCNP. I would try and get 12.4 IOS for the routers and 12.2 for the switches.
