Re: Question Regarding Study Material

GNS3 for routers and real 3560s is working well for me. I use a 3750 as a
breakout switch, but there's the multiple-NIC method as well. GNS3 does
flake out occassionally and needs a reboot, but works very well so far, and
allows for greater flexibility in your topology.
