Re: Hardware requirement for CCIE LAB security

Hello,

Thanks for you email!

Can u please tell me in detail how do i setup a server based PC to a VMware
..does it require any license?

I have got 2 two ASA 5520 ,1- PIX 506E, switch -3750/3560 and quite a few
2800/7206/2600 routers do you suggest me to built a hardware lab with this ?

Regards,
Akber Mirza.
