As long as you are aware that any IPS-4215 functions can't be done, and skip
those portions of the lab (although you can rent rack time to avoid needing
to purchase anything like that).

But otherwise, that looks like it will cover the basics of things.

Hi All,

I am currently using online racks from different vendors and working towards
my ccie security.
Also, would like to know what all devices should be used to make a home lab
for practice?

As per the blue print, I understand the following would be required:-

   - 9 routers running 12.2T Enterprise (IPSec/FW/IDS IOS) - 1xNM 4A/S,
   1x NM 2E2W
   - 2509 - 8 A/S ports for Terminal Server
   - 2521 for FR switch.
   - 4 x 3560 series switches - IOS 12.2SEE
   - PIX 515 - 7.2
   - 2 x ASA 5510 with 7.2
   - IPS 4235 with 5.1
   - VPN 3005 with 4.7.2
   - console cables
   - straight & cross cat cables.

Please let me know if this is enough for following the IPExpert WB?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Regards,
Cisco Boy / S B
