Dynamips Support

Dynamips is a popular emulator for Cisco routers, that can load and run IOS images on virtual routers on your PC. Dynamips does have limitations, particularly with respect to switching support (it can only simulate switch modules within a virtual router) and the amount of memory and CPU resources that are available on your PC. At IPexpert we understand that there are a lot of costs associated with studying for your CCIE lab exam and to that end we provide Dynamips configuration files for each of our labs that are downloadable when you purchase our products. In addition to Dynamips, we strongly recommend that you do at some practice labs using real equipment prior to your lab exam so that you are comfortable with the 3550, 3560 and 3750 switching elements of your study. Through our partner, Proctorlabs.com, we are also able to provide you with real equipment on which to implement each of our labs, when you need it.

“Great job on providing high quality workbooks for the CCIE exam.”
By: Raould Traore, CCIE #19648 (R&S and Security)
I would like to thank IPexpert for the great job on providing high quality workbooks for the CCIE exam. I passed my CCIE Routing & Switching exam and I would have hardly accomplished that without your help. I have now completed my Security and Routing & Switching and I learned a lot.
 
 
“There is only one vendor that will get my business and that is the leader and the original CCIE training company - IPexpert.”
By: Manish Behal, CCIE #22198 (R&S)

I found the market at the moment is flooded with CCIE RS materials, but only a few have what it takes to really get into the technologies and teach you what is needed not only to pass the lab, but to use the knowledge thereafter. I found your materials had that perfect balance of doing just that.

As for the workbook with proctor notes, this was just simply amazing, the amount of detail fed to me was just right. I find some vendors just copy and paste direct from the DOC_CD just to pad the workbook - I do not want or need this, I can get that when I want from the Cisco site. IPexpert simply broke that down again to a perfect level where one could make use of the information, without an unwanted overdose.

I have decided to pursue CCIE Security in the new year, and as far as I am concerned there is only one vendor that will get my business and that is the leader and the original CCIE training company - IPexpert. Only IPexpert with it's OSL (www.OnlineStudyList.com) provides support like no other, no one wants to wait days for an answers, with OSL I get responses within a few hours - no other vendor can boast this level of service.

Thanks for making it happen for me!!!

 
 
“I used IPexpert workbooks extensively and I can recommend these materials wholeheartedly.”
By: Bojan Zivancevic CCIE# 28189 (R&S)

“I am pleased to announce that I passed CCIE Routing and Switching exam on the first attempt. I used IPexpert workbooks extensively and I can recommend these materials wholeheartedly. The greatest value I had from them is learning how to think non-linear and tackle the labs from all sides. The labs make you think non-linear and are a great help in forming the mindset for the actual exam. Also, the troubleshooting sections were challenging and I enjoyed working on them in preparation for the actual TS section on the exam.

OnlineStudyList is a great resource tool. I am very thankful to Tyson Scott and Marko Milivojevic, IPexpert instructors, because their response times were always incredibly short. You will also find many other CCIEs there, as well as CCIE candidates, all willing to help and participate in the discussions. Last but not least, I am very satisfied with the help and support from the IPexpert sales department. It is not common to find such devotion to a client’s satisfaction in the industry.”

  • To be determined (TBD) registrations are often requested when there is a promotion or special pricing available. These TBD registrations must be paid in full within 30 days of purchase. Payment plans are not accepted for TBD students. If purchase is initiated by purchase order, countdown begins at the date full payment is received.
  • Classes must be scheduled and taken within twelve (12) months from purchase date. If the class has not been scheduled or taken by the beginning of the thirteenth (13) month, the registration will be forfeit.
  • Rescheduling will be limited to two (2) additional times during that twelve (12) month period with the class date no more than three (3) months from the current date.
  • TBD registrations are non-refundable. In-store credit for the course fee (the amount paid less full-retail Self-Study/vRack price) will be issued if the TBD course is cancelled within the 12 month window.
  • Students are subject to rescheduling fees and course policies as outlined on the Course Registration Form.
  • If student registers and confirms a class date, registration cannot be converted to a TBD registration again at any time, the rescheduling policy must be followed.


    Note:
     Students are required to complete the Cisco Course Evaluation for the first class to qualify for a retake. Our courses are consistently in high-demand and fill up fast. Retake seats are limited, of course, so email your request to sales@ipexpert.com as soon as possible to have a better selection of dates and locations.
