   A pix is nice for a lab for real time stuff but dont worry about it
   for the CCIE. Its not in the RS lab exam.
   
   Hope none of the NDA nazis flame me for that :)
   
   Couple of ISDN mods and a simulator (see archives please - FOR THE
   LOVE OF GOD SEE THE ARCHIVES!!!!!) would be a good addition. Or go
   the AUX to AUX route talked about a feww days ago.
   
   www.fatkid.com has freebie labs. CCBootcamp labs are friggin
   awesome!!!! No - I dont work for them - theyre just really good and
   worth the money - not that I paid for them (corporate credit cards are
   wonfderful things) but if I had to fork out the bucks myself then they
   are worth it.
   
   I have used, and intend using in the future, ccbootcamp for ATM and
   voice stuff too as componentry for that stuff was outside of the
   budget for my lab.

   Okay folks,
   Maybe someone can provide some guidance.
   
   I've gotten to the point that I have out together some equipment for a
   Lab
   I have the following:
   
   5500 Switch with RSM, 24 port ethernet and GBIC uplink module
   5505 Switch, 24 port ethernet and GBIC uplink module
   3640 router
   3620 router
   4 - 2620 routers
   as 5300
   pix 520
   
   I would like some suggestions as to books or resources with practice
   labs
   and if there are any other piece of equipment I shoul add to my CCIE
   lab.
   
   George

   Hi,
   
   Yep,you're right.I wasn't thinking.
   
   The issue is the old half bridge issue - you've got to have a bridge
   at
   both
   
   ends...
