Agreed. IPX has the best racks and support team. Much cheaper than to own a rack and waste time in troubleshooting and setting it up.
My advise is to use GNS3 for minor stuff without getting involved in GNS troubleshooting, otherwise you will loose time. Rent IPX racks and save time and do your labs. You can do any workbook on IPX racks, such as IPX, INE, Yusuf, NM Solutions or even your own labs for practice, as long as you modify the layer 2. Pretty simple and saves tons of time. Best Regards. ______________________ Adil On Aug 28, 2011, at 5:47 AM, Johan Bornman wrote: > Ipexpert rack vouchers are very affordable.
