 Wily_OnePremium join:2002-11-24 San Jose, CA | [CCNA] How does this sound? For a CCNA lab:
2x 3640 3x 2621 5x 2611 1x 3560G 1x 3550 1x Lightstream 1010
I can also throw in two more switches in the mix, but they're old Catalyst 2948G-GE-TX. (non-IOS) |

 | Are you getting any WICs / NMs as well or is it going to be all (fast)ethernet connectivity you're going to be doing?
May be alittle over the top for NA, but if you can afford it, I'd say go for it.

 Wily_OnePremium join:2002-11-24 San Jose, CA | The beauty of it is this will cost me nothing. There's a network lab at work that I have access to now, and one rack is up for grabs.
There are various modules in the chassis, but I didn't write them down. So equipment wise this sounds pretty good, right? (I was guessing it's overkill for CCNA.) |

 | reply to Wily_One If the the 2600s aren't XMs, they won't take 12.4T code or voice modules, but you can rig em with some fairly cheap serial ports for expanded non-FE connectivity -- my personal favorite is the NM-4A/S.
The 3640 is long in tooth, but I hear it'll expand alot more than the 26xx routers function-wise.
As for the 3550 / 3560, if they're EMI (ie. EIGRP, IS-IS, and BGP), they're worth their weight in gold and more.
