If you work for a partner, it's relatively easy to get time in at the Cisco
labs -- my local office lets us call in and schedule time whenever we want
it. It sure beats buying a bunch of Routers, Access Servers, SecureACS,
PRI/BRI Simulators, etc. If you don't work for a partner, get friendly with
a Cisco employee. A free lunch or toy or shirt usually goes a long way...
:) Good Luck.
