  • So responding to Jeffrey's comment, I can see how my video can be misleading. So to clarify_GNS3 is the best thing that has happen since slice Bread. There is no doubt that GNS3 is the golden egg. It will help you tremendously with your studies. I used it through my CCNP & connected my real switches to GNS3. However, if you are studying for your CCNA, I suggest you get a real lab first with 3 routers and 2 switches. Use GNS3 after your CCNA, This is only an opinion not written in stone.

  • GNS3 is Awesome, there is no doubt. And I strongly recommend it when studying for CCNP and CCIE. The ability to run so many routers in GNS3, without the electric bill, AC bill, and heat, is a fantastic thing. To be able to open GNS3 to through a quick config on it to test something is fantastic. So the idea is not to downplay GNS3 but to encourage CCNA students to start off with real equipment.

  • Jeffrey..... This is what I stated about GNS3 in my video "Using GNS3 for routing and using it for my all my routers is A+. And I have used them and I have it alot and I still use them today and I love GNS3". Now I do state the downfalls of GNS3 and I do recommend having real equipment than GNS3... Now that being said, I did not state the downfall of real equipment. But also this advice is for CCNA students. And their first experience should be real equipment, in my opinion

  • Great video. I was wondering what lab equipment do you think a person should buy if they are doing ccna and plan on doing ccnp.

  • Your misinforming people GNS3 is SOOO much better than real equipment. Although you do need hardware

  • Was buying the switches and routers expensive? Did you buy new PCs too?
