Setting up a lab

huafisthuafist Member Posts: 69 ■■□□□□□□□□
I've decided I'm going to go ahead and set up a lab for my studies from here on out. I have ordered 3 2610XM routers, and 3 Catalyst 2950 switches. Soon, the fun will begin :)

    Well I was planning on going ahead and taking it in a couple of weeks, but now I'm going to wait until I get everything here and get my lab set up, then shoot for 2 weeks after that.

    Sounds cool. I plan on ordering a lab soon as well. I think I'm going to get the 2610 or 2611XM routers x3 and cisco 2950 switches.
    Life is not a gift for man, man is himself life, his wants and needs serve the singular purpose of existence, any man who loses sight of this and does not cherish life itself is in the hardest of ways.

    Synseq! I think I've been hearing you say that since a while ago! =p

    If you've done your research, but you are just unsure about actually getting the lab, I can tell you right now: It was well worth it for me! It's an awesome feeling to not rely on simulations which may/may not offer the full range of commands! (or may be buggy...)

    good luck everyone with your lab purchases =) and have fun labbing!
