J-Series Routers for JNCIP & JNCIE

Hi Friends,

I want to practice JNCIP & JNCIE and wanna build my own lab. I have few question regarding my LAB.

1:- How many routers i would need if I wanna do both LABs
2:- Does J-Series Routers supports Logical Routers ( Systems)
3:- can I practice all the technologies on J-Series Routers

sorry forgot to mention I am doing M-series

thanks in advance for all your comments.

Regards,

Hyder

1: - The sybex books for the IP and the IE labs cover 7 internal and I believe 5 external routers. Sooo if you could get your hands on 7 j series and use olives for your external routers you should be good to go.

2: - nope, j-series do not support logical routers, I really really wish they did.

3: - yup, you can do everything that is found in the IP and IE sybex books on the J series routers. As far as technologies go the one thing they are missing is being able to configure VPLS, but that's not covered in either the IP or the IE

man i'd love to have some M7i's in my home lab, could do sooo many things with them. All I ask is for 2 M7i's, is that to much to ask for

aldur,

why did you pick some m7i's? when you can get a couple of m40s?
do you have any specific reason?

and the answer : .....

service interface !!!

lol definitely, the built in ASM would allow all the wonders of the service interface

and, after getting those 2 m7i's - you'll probably can get rid some of those j's around the house so it save save the electric bill?

i'd love to have those also, if you dont mind of course

so, i heard that cisco is your next journey,
would you care for some exchange? those j's for some 3560s? i think the ratio is about 3j : 1c, fair enough?

hahahaha

lol, i'd probably keep all the routers running and watch the power bill climb!

Yes indeed I want to make myself invaluable by having both Juniper and Cisco knowledge/certs. Would have a pretty serious lab going there if I built it up with Cisco's too, I can just imagine my power bill then...

ok, so you want to keep all of them which is nice

couple of m-series, some j's and some cisco's on the lab.
btw, did not i tell you that i've bought a php book the other day?
imagine that dynamic flashy yet powerful website saying : "Aldur Inc. Home Rack Rental"
create some automatic user registration & lab space scheduler,
wow, that sounds fun
