Just a small addition: It can be very valuable to have access to a "mini-lab" (as I have built at home) to be able to small tests, check command syntax and stuff like that. I guess that one ASA, one router and a catalyst-switch is minimum.
It doesnt make me able to do workbook labs at home, but when I wake up in the middle of night (yes it happens. ;) its great to do some tests/verifications without waiting for your next proctor lab session.
