Made some minor adjustments to the rack layout, cables changed slightly and 4500 is not DCE for all links, it simply cant handle it. 4500 upgraded to IOS 12 Enterprise with IP Plus and 56 bit encryption. I ordered one ISDN simulator so hopefully that will be here by the end of the week. I also order new flash and Dram for the 2500 series routers to bring them up to max spec 16/16. Once installed I will upgrade the IOS on all of them.

Just got back from Oman so not been able to do anything since Jan. The Rack is now in its beta testing phase, all cabling complete, 1720 added to the rack. I have had to adapt the connections slightly and one of the the 1601's was dead so I have replaced it with one of my spare 1603's. I am also unable to put the 7007 on the rack at the moment as my max load is 13A and the beast draws a massive 6A. I have ordered and ISDN simulator so that should be here soon. To gain access to the beta testing please sign up at www.techexams.net then email Racktime@cisco-engineer.com with your username when complete. Flash website is now in progress at www.cisco-engineer.com/flash.htm however having a few problems with the links so any flash gurus out there I would appreciate your help. I am now going to start working on some labs.

Finally finished rack mouting the equipment. I am still waiting for some rack mounts to come of ebay, and still awaiting the 1720 router. The Terminal Server (2511) is now wired up to all the other routers, as is the power to the rack, I now have to start the long task of cabling all the data up now! Details will be released soon, access requires users to be members of techexams.net for access.

Finally got a rack bought from ebay for a mere £50 ($80) so I can really get the ball rolling now. Also purchased a 1720 router from ebay.
