Wow... Its been a bit mad this year, since finishing a contract at News International, its been all go hitting the books again teaching with Wraycastle. I've spent February and March travelling back and forth to Holland, Southern Ireland and around the UK, teaching TCP/IP, VoIP/IMS and MPLS courses.

I've been working hard upgrading my Cisco Lab and added 6 3725 routers, 2x 2950 switches (one which seems to be a survivor of a skip dump!) and a Cisco Catlyst 3550 layer 3 switch. This lab together with GNS3 and 8G RAM on my laptop and Mac Mini has helped me craft some pretty cool lab set-ups for demonstrating and teaching OSPF, BGP, MPLS, MPLS VPNs, Ethernet Over MPLS (and VPLS) and MPLS-TE.

I'll get around to posting some lab work hopefully in the next couple of months.. One that would be great to get going Pseudo Wire carrying an E1 (30 channel) voice circuit.

More anon......
