Hi Chris,
You can get away with buying any of the platform as long as you use the
correct IOS (12.2T). To save money, you can go with the 2600/3600 series. In
terms of the PIX, it is still there in the blueprint but if you happen to
have an ASA, that would do as well.
Best regards,

Subject: security track lab equipment
Hi list,
I searched the archive but was unable to find an up-to-date answer.
I am wondering what specfic equipment are required for the Lab exam?
I've looked at CISCO official guideline and various other sources; the
official guideline suggested the followings,
(http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/le3/ccie/security/lab_equipment.html)
- Cisco 2600 Series Routers
- Cisco 3600 Series Routers
- Cisco 3700 Series Routers
- Cisco Catalyst 3550 Series Switches
- Cisco PIX 500 Series Security Appliances
- Cisco VPN 3000 Series Concentrators
- Cisco IPS Series 4200 intrusion prevention system sensors
- Cisco Secure Access Control Server for Windows
- Certificate Authority Support
- Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliances
With the different series routers, I heard they were remarkable similar.
Would it be necessary to obtain at least one each or I can get away by just
getting any one of them? Can anyone point out what specific Model do I need
to get under that Series?
Also CISCO is ending sales of PIX firewall, however it is still listed here.
I wonder it is necessary to get it or should I get its replacement instead.
Thank you,
Chris
