RE: ip services and system management R&S

I agree with all of you, I know the importance in real life.
But going that deep at SNMP, rmon , and specially SRT

Hey Santiago.

That system management stuff may be boring, but in the real world, it
becomes real important how your environment is managed. And people expect
you will have all the answers coming in with your number. ;-)

But I agree with Dale. A couple of PCs or VM on your boxes to simulate your
IP services tasks.

I agree, it's pretty boring playing with SNMP and RMON in a lab of
only Cisco devices. There's only so much insight you get doing it this
way.

Set up your own SNMP manager -- pick one of the open source (free)
ones out there.

Same goes for IP Services -- it's hard to create interesting scenarios
when you're limited to lab equipment. Get a couple of PCs and connect
them to your lab. Simulate 'real' end user connections to make NAT,
gateway redundancy and all that stuff more realistic.

There's no shortcut.

cheers,
Dale
