After spending more than 10 hours and reading all details, I came up with list of equipment for my Home Lab. As of now I do not have any plan of giving any certification exam but I want to have my own lab because of my interest in networks. Just want to have fun with whatever new I can try on the set up. I already have Masters Degree under my belt and its not doing any thing good to me on comparing it with real world experience. What really matters for me now is to enjoy what I fond of doing rather than filling my resume with more stuff. May be in near future if I like, can give a shot on Cisco exams in a row.
