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.
