Any labs for CCDA?

zrockstar

Hey guys, I am hopefully going for my CCNA in July and want to roll right into CCDA. I know that it is recommended to do CCNP switch as well which I know is pretty lab heavy, but is there any labbing required specific to the CCDA. I don't have a home lab and I don't know if I will have access to my schools because I finish my CCNA track in June. Thanks.

You can use simulators. Most CCIEs at my workplace used sims to pass. Much cheaper and you don't have to waste time on hardware issues completely unrelated to the certification topics.

Examples: GNS3, Packet Tracer, Boson NetSim..
