Product Description
If you're serious about passing the new CCNA exam (#640-607), you need hands-on experience with routers and switches. Until now, this has required access to expensive network equipment--not to mention the freedom to experiment with it. The CCNA Virtual Lab, Gold Edition gives you everything you need and more to tackle Cisco's challenging simulation format questions. You can practice with this, "equipment" on your own, use it in conjunction with suggested labs that cover CCNA exam objectives, or even design custom labs. An enhanced version of Sybex's best-selling CCNA Virtual Lab, this program simulates a network environment consisting of four routers, two switches, and four hosts, this program provides hands-on practice for the following topics and more:* Logging in to a router * Starting and saving router configurations * Setting passwords, hostname, IP address, and clock rate * Static routes and default routes * Dynamic routing with RIP and IGRP * Backing up, upgrading or restoring your router IOS * Telnet * IP name resolution * Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) * Internetworking Packet eXchange (IPX) * Secondary network addresses and frame types * Configuring frame relay

 ccna v.lab November 16, 2007
A basic lab setting will help you to break the ice.If you are serious about CCNA there are better ones in the market place.
Only around 10 guided labs. For those who not have hands-on router/switch experience, the Virtual Lab will give some insight into configurations assuming that you have done your regular textbook reading.
You are going to need much more if you wish pass the CCNA exam.
 6 devices total? September 14, 2004

A Router Simulator needs to have more than 6 devices if you want to really practice anything. This is a good basic simulator for the INTRO material but does not do much of anything to prepare you for the ICND or CCNP material.
Nice, but I found online labs CHEAPER and BETTER. March 14, 2004

No question, this lab sim is good and provides a nice topology to work with. BUT, for the coin you have to spend, you may find a better way to go. Check out IPExpert.com. They provide a free CCNA workbook with about 20 labs in it. Then check out www.gettLabs.com. They provide a FREE rack to work through the IPExpert labs. For no money, you can work with REAL equipment. Read the gettLabs Support forums before you start. There is a lot of helpful infomation for CCNA people using their equipment. I liked Sybex, but it is just too hard to justify the cost.
The simulator pales in comparison to the Cisco Press one September 17, 2003

I try to be open minded about products, but I think the only reason this product has been popular uis because there was no competition out there. Now that cisco press has released their new CCNA book with NetSim in it, I can't see any value to this far inferior product.
 Exelent virtual lab! Sybex has created a great learning tool June 13, 2003

The Sybex Gold lab edition takes most router commands at any piont in the labs, and just like real routers they accept short abriviations of commands, unlike Cisco's v-labs that require the exact command in full syntax for each short activity. The writen lab activities cover about 1/4 of the most important information from the first four semesters of the Cisco Netwoking academy,
's lab program, it very convientaly puts togeather important second semester information with fourth semester information and it does a good job. This lab is not built the same way as the official Cisco lab set up, and you can't change the change the serial lines...
