Re: CCIE lab time in Los Angeles [7:38052]
I think your price is right. I'd be willing to pay $220 for an 8 hours slot. Unfortunately I live in NY. I totally disagree with the Ebay suggestion from the other fellow. 2500 routers are not the biggest problem when setting up a CCIE lab. You need ISDN emulators, 5500 switches, 3900 switches etc.. And these are a lot more than $200!

RE: CCIE lab time in Los Angeles [7:38052]
I'm not really selling anything yet. But your point is well taken and although I would argue that having hands-on labtime is more valuable than just virtual lab time where you pay them an extra $10 to cable things up, I understand that other sites come highly recommended. Those educational facilities linked of of Cisco's website sell labtime for $250 for 8 hours. I suppose I wouldn't have a lab with all that equipment, so a target of $125 for 8 hours of rack time sounds more reasonable. I'm sorry if being asked by my company to set something up and recoup costs sounds draconian to you, but I can assure you it happens elsewhere in life, :). Thanks for everyone's input. -Leo Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=38158&t=38052 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

$220 for an 8 hour timeslot. That about $200 more than i'd pay. Anyone looking for time can look on ebay and all the other recommended labtime providers. Granted, your accessing it remotely but most of them will charge a $10 setup or something like that and will cable per your specs (or whatever lab you happen to be doing) Put it this way. For $220 I can get myself a 2501 off of ebay. Glad to hear you would "allow people people to come in and meet yourself". Also, I'm sure most people on here would consider this advertising and that you could possibly be banned for that. This is a study group. I apologize if I seemed offensive but I just got off a 2 hour phone call with a cisco tac engineer who was not up to par with some of the others i've dealt with in the past.

Re: CCIE lab time in Los Angeles [7:38052]
That's a really good idea, but the price is too high. I would be interested if you bring down the price.
