Hi
Agree peter
no 6500 stuff, no CUE, no MGCP, no Hardware media resources, no Catalysts QoS, no FXS/FXO
well thats not a core topics ;-)
but the majority can be done on this lab.
i do have one VG200 with FXS/FXO and will add another VG200 by next week, using those two routers for the FXS/FXO part (not bad at all tho)
i did install CME alone via Dynamips using c3725-ipvoice-mz.123-14.T7.BIN code, connected it to loopback, and i was amazed how much you can learn via small labs like this, isolating the labs is not bad idea at all.
Regards
