If you have access to a 60-70 percent off list program I would use this
program for the routers and switches. I recommend 2811's for the routers and
3550's for the switches.
Modules such as WIC-1T's and WIC-2T's will still be cheaper used.
However, I would still recommend a used Cisco 2522 for the frame switch and
a Cisco 2511 for the reverse telnet access server. You can also still use
older Cisco 2500's and Cisco 2600's for your backbone routers in most cases.
You will still need to pickup misc items such as serial crossovers, ethernet
patch, octals, etc.

Subject: R/S CCIE Lab Kit [bcc][faked-from]
Importance: Low
Hi all
Need some guidance on getting a home/office lab for 2-3 people aiming for
their R/SCCIE Lab over the next 1-2 years. Keeping in mind the recent
changes to R/S CCIe Lab and any future updates, what should be included in
home/office lab to pass the lab exam?
For example, should we get any ethernet based routers? what is the minimum
spece router model we should pruchase? We know that 2500 are pointless now
becuase of the IOS and interface restrictions.
Any ideas on the cats?
Also, is it worth getting new kit from Cisco for labs/demos with 60-70% off?
Does these prices come anywhere near to used kit prices?
Thanks
Dave
