Cool CCVP lab and Topology Drawings off of Ebay!
I found these nice diagrams off of ebay. Some company is putting together Voip training labs . They are 1500.00 each plus liks 250.00 S/H but man if I had the 2000.00 to spend I would get this lab very nice…..It is so hard to put all the pieces to gether when you are dealing with limited time. Me I think it is importan to put each piece together but I do not have all kinds of free time so it makes sense if you have the money I would get this lab; nice start 
Rookie! CCVP Topology drawing !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’d be very interested in knowing what company is putting together this lab! I wouldn’t mind spending the money if it meant having a proper VP lab.
Care to share? Please email me if you get back, as I may lose this URL. Thanks!

dude I am not sure. IT does look good. But man I am doing this. I bought 4 1760 routers and turning them into voip router with wic-T1 cards as WAN interfaces. then I am building a 1760 as PSTN..buying some IP phones and walla VOip network. plus I am going to buy 3550 poe switches and putting EMI images on them for L3 and Qos ..my switches will be the worst. I plan on buying 3 of them but they cost like 300 each sucks! so 1 at a time hee hee;)
but yeah as today to be a CCNA/CCNP you have to know your Voip it is standard now.
good luck man

I don’t think that a CCVP lab made from used devices with just three switches, two routers and three phones costs 2000!
I’ve spent about 3000 for my 18 switches & routers (some with adv. ent. ios, voice) + pix fw + rack + pieces + books
Anyway, it’s a nice rack to take the picture but if you are looking for something good at the best price, you need to spend a couple of days looking for devices at a good price.
For example, to buy a 3550-EMI from a ebay shop might cost about 400 and even more, I bought one last week for 121, a 2948G-L3 might cost about 300, I bought one quite long ago for 160. When you want to buy more than one device you can negotiate with seller, I bought 2 2950T and 2 2950G switches with together would have cost about 460 + S/H and devices + S/H cost me 400, …
Also, I have to say that my money flow for devices has stopped!
Maybe I’ll buy a couple of juniper FW to make experiments but first I want to take all I can from cisco!
