As a lot of you will know, the cost of the CCIE lab equipment is what scares a lot of people aware from attempting it. The CCIE has traditionally been regarded as something that cannot be done independantly. Most people get the backing of their employer when it gets to this point.
What if there was an alternative? What if you could build a CCIE lab to practice on for the cost of a Good PC? Interested? Check out the following link:
http://www.internetworkpro.org/wiki/CCIE_Security_Home_Lab_with_dynamips_%26_Co
This covers building the CCIE security Lab using freely available emulators and VMWARE. No, it probably wont be perfect, but it certainly wont be £40,000 either.
Give it a try and let us know how you get on!

Yep, I registered dynaccie.com quite a while back and I have been using Dynamips for quite a while, hence why my home lab has all but gone now

Hello Rich,
Hope you’re doing Great !
I’m unable to open the link you’ve provided. http://www.internetworkpro.org/wiki/CCIE_Security_Home_Lab_with_dynamips_%26_Co
In fact it looks like the site is down. I would request you to please share the document for setting up the ccie sec lab on pc with me. Please, feel free to send me that at my email address (akbehl@gmail.com).
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Akhil,
This looks to be working again now. Give it another try. If it doesnt work we will copy the article over.
