Welcome to CF

 

thanks i hope you guys can be helpful i have to get the ccna cert asap

 

Do you have any IT experience?

 

desktop support

 

Hi lagosboy and welcome to CF with regards to setting up a lab for your CCNA study I'd advice you get the book by Cisco press as well as the Boson netsim software.

Alternatively, check on ebay for a 1600 series router and a 2950 switch as there are some good bargain stuff on there.

However, bear in mind that owing to your IT background being in desktop support it would be a challenge to get a role in networking as you might have to start with network administrator junior type role and work your way up.

 

Also have you considered following the A+ with the N+ prior to embarking on the CCNA? It would seem the logical progression bearing in mind it is vendor neutral and covers a broad spectrum of networking topics.
