The labs have "basically" the equipment listed...But there is also ATM equipment...voice equipment....and there is one more 3550 switch...

This would be for the R/S lab...The security, voice, and Service provider labs have this equipment plus more.

The equipment listed above is all refurbs, excluding the 3550...it is brand new in the box.....Purchasing all of this would be around 5000.00...with the 3550 alone running around 1900.00 alone..(on ebay)..

It is kind of expensive but I look at it like this:
I can pay around 5000 for my own equipment that I can work on all the time...whenever I want...and I can use this core for R/S, Security
Or
I can pay 3000-9000 for a week long boot camp where I will only get to use the equipment for one week...repeating for Security Lab..

When I am done, I can always resell the equipment to collect most of what I have in it....

It was just the best choice for me...at this time...

Ten9t6....

Sounds like you have some nice equipment. I have 2 3550 catalysts too. You have to spend money to make money.

I know some people who said the same, although it was for CCNP and not such a kewl lab, most of them kept the equipment because the job it got them paid enough to buy a new lab every 4 week, and it is still very convenient to be able to practice and test things at home once you get the job... for a CCIE you should be able to earn the lab back within a week

and... with such a rack one should be able to make even more friends than with a Playstation 3

Plus, it really impresses us girls. But then, that might just be me.
