Hi
i just got my cisco lab companion books as my next aim is to have my CCNP done in this year
I am just confused about the equipments mentioned in the lab companion book which are a way over my budget
for example the BCMSN book requires 2 3960 switches and 2 2960 switches which are too expensive for me
I already have 2 2950 switches,one 2520 router and 2 2620 routers but cant afford any more switches mentioned in the lab books
How can practice on the labs mentioned in the book
Do i go for a rack rental from a company and then practice on the labs mentioned and or is their any other way like using DYNAMIPS
Please suggest me a solution i am really woried i dont know what to do
Or
do i need to use the Bryant advantage CCNP study guide instead of the cisco lab companion books to do alb practice
Please help me out
