RE: INE SP v3 topology

Yes, rent time on a rack such as mine. :) cconlinelabs

The cost to stand up your own rack will be quite expensive. Especially for
the SP track with the XR routers. That is why rack rentals make more sense
because you can share the cost across many users if you do it right and
minimize your administrative overhead.

For the INE labs, we have deployed all physical routers because their
requirement of number of routers is pretty low as you have pointed out. For
all other labs, the demand for 24 routers has pushed us to deploy some
virtual routers. The benefit or virtual routers far outweighs the few
features that are not supported in the virtual environment.

Subject: INE SP v3 topology

Hi guys,
juts a quick one.
INE post here

http://blog.ine.com/2011/09/02/ines-new-ccie-service-provider-version-3-0-to
pology-finalized/

suggests 20 routers for SPv3 topology while the online SPv3 workbook on INE
members site suggests 10, the difference is in 10 extra 2611XM routers.
I have been tasked to build a lab for my coleagues at SP competence group
and extra 10 routers makes things a bit different rackspace wise, etc.

Any insights?

Cheers
A.
