Shahid is absolutely right. You do not need to go to training for this. The MCNS, PIX, and VPN exams are pretty easy if you read the CP books and have some experience with them. For IDS you can pass using just the Cisco Press book if you have a good memory. You're better off getting an NT4 server and downloading an eval copy of CSPM to get comfy with the GUI. If you really have trouble with the IDS part you should consider finding out how to build an IDS Sensor out of a Solaris box. It can be done. :)
