Is there any chance your management might permit you to have
user-level access to the equipment at work? While most people think
in terms of configuring scenarios, there's still a lot of information
you can get simply from displays -- and you will also get hands-on
experience in using the CLI.
Router simulators, in my opinion, are either impractical or are no
more than pre-scripted computer assisted instruction.
Remotely accessed labs are an option.
I know I could look up the TLD, but are you in Qatar?
