How to Master Cisco CCNP Switch Exam using Cisco Catalyst 3550 and 2950 switches
http://gns3vault.com/howtomasterccnps... In this video you will learn that in order to become CCNP certified you need to pass 3 exams. ROUTE, SWITCH and TSHOOT. I suggest that you do ROUTE first, SWITCH second and TSHOOT last. You can't use GNS3 because it doesn't support PAGP, LACP, Rapid spanning-tree, Multi spanning-tree and more. It's best to buy 1x Cisco Catalyst 3550 switch and 2x Cisco Catalyst 2950 switches. The labs you can find on GNS3Vault for free. If you have trouble understanding all the theory like VLANs, Trunks, Etherchannels, Switch Virtual Interfaces, routing between VLANs etc then I invite you to take a look at "How to Master CCNP SWITCH". You can find it on GNS3Vault.
