They both have their pros and cons. Personally I like the IPExpert approach. It also doesn't hurt that this forum is mostly IPExpert folks so you get a lot less garbage than on the larger groupstudy forums which are populated en masse.

I have looked at both websites and the services at INE seem to include a Dynamips lab and workbooks. I only starting and wondered if you could provide any recommendations? Many Thanks Jeremy.

I run from the directory with the configs of interest and it overwrites them with the modifications - I slapped together my own dynamips .net file and I have 3750s in my network so I needed to change interface names on the switches but you should be able to use it as a bit of a base. In my particular set up globally I replace: IPexpert Config -> My Dynamips Configs Serial0/0/0 -> Serial2/0 Serial0/1/0 -> Serial2/1 Serial0/2/0 -> Serial2/2 Serial0/2/1 -> Serial2/3 Hope that's of some help.

I downloaded the intial configs when I downloaded the labs but they do not match the dynamips interfaces... E.g. Initial config for R2 in lab 9 Do I need to make these substitutions? FastEthernet0/0 -> GigabitEthernet0/0 FastEthernet0/1 -> GigabitEthernet0/1 Serial0/1 -> Serial0/1/0 serial0/2 -> serial0/2/0 Thanks, Mike _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com
