The ubr924 is a great idea.. and further I am wondering, is there a bargain
switch that has the IOS feature set, and tends to sell cheap on ebay?

  The majority of the R&S lab is routing and switching.
  If you don't know how to configure the layer two
  technologies and the routing protocols, it doesn't
  matter how new your hardware is. Cisco isn't changing
  administrative distances between versions, so
  redistribution isn't changing much. You don't need a
  3550 to understand how a switch works, or how to
  configure trunking and VLANs. Voice can be practiced
  on a pair of ubr924's for $75 each. There will always
  be new features or things that you haven't seen
  before, that's why they give you the Documentation.
