CCNA v3 Labs;

CCNA v3 Labs provides the configuration skills necessary for initial device configuration and switching. The CCNA candidate must answer technical questions and have the skills required to configure switches. Packet Tracer is a network simulator available from Cisco that provides a virtual lab environment for CCNA candidates. Cisco now provides a link to download Packet Tracer that is available with the free one hour course on Packet Tracer fundamentals. The network simulator enables the candidate to configure, verify and troubleshoot network designs based on Cisco devices. Packet Tracer simulates the same IOS software and configuration as the physical devices. There are 12 Packet Tracer files (.pkt) that are available for download and referenced by name in the lab guide. CCNA v3 Lab Guide: Routing and Switching is available with additional routing, IPv6 and troubleshooting simulations.
