NetLabs is Coming Your Way For Fall . . .

We are planning to implement Phase I of NetLabs this fall as many of you are aware. NETLAB Academy Edition® provides remote access to Cisco Networking Academy Program lab equipment and curriculum. Phase I will include three (or maybe four) multi-purpose academy pods used for ROUTE, TSHOOT”, CCNA Security, Wireless and Voice classes; and three Cuatro Switch Pods used for SWITCH and TSHOOT.

Today, Justin, Bill, and Gene took an inventory of old routers that had been stored in a lab cabinet – unusable. They checked each router, verifying memory and flash, replacing and adding memory and swapping out power supplies, etc. as needed to put as many of the routers back in service as possible. As a result of their ingenuity today, in addition to around ten 2600 routers, they have upgraded four 2651XM’s that we will use in the multi-purpose pods. We will substitute these routers for the 2811’s in the original plan (since we will only be using them between the two 2811’s, to pass traffic.

I will be keeping you posted on the progress of this project. Way to go Guys!
