CCNP Kit

[bfletch]

I am looking to purchase a full CCNP kit. I am looking to purchase one of of ciscokit.com the standard ccnp kit. I am just a little hesitant sending $5100 to a company that does not have a contact phone number. Let me know if anyone has used them or have other companies that have similar kits.

Thanks.

unless I looked at the wrong url, it looks like that site is forsale and has links to other sites for similar content.

I think you can get just as good of a lab setup for less that $5100 off of ebay. I was fortunate at work to have enough spare equipment to make do on several of the labs, but for the BSCI and the BCMSN tests all I really needed was 3-4 routers (2500 series or better) and a couple of switches (2950 or better).

Another place you might want to check out is:

I have not purchased anything from them, but have seen some pretty good reviews of their courses.

wow..I kind of think getting the 3600 series router is a little bit of overkill. Depending on what you plan for after CCNP, I might me more tempted to spend the $5100 on the CCVP kit for the same price.

If nothing else, take the list of equipment and shop around at some other places, you might be able to buy the individual pieces (or equivalents) for a lot less.
