Hello Mr. Wong, I submitted the request for the wireless tech skill course in the help desk chat messanger system. Thank you for the recommendation.
However, I would also like an answer to my questions on what Mr. Sequeira spoke about references in his previous message. Specifically this was:
-
Providing examples of the three emulations (CML, Packet Tracer, and EVE-NG) and how they compare as an instructional tools?
-
Which of the episodes in the legacy CCNP are you referring to since there are several CCNP courses in the legacy category?
Thank you for your reply and learning coach guidance!

They all have a couple of things in common. They provide for you to practice building a networking topology without the need of cabling, power and hardware devices. All three require that you learn how to use them. Some are easier than others. 2 of 3 (CML and EVE-NG) allow you purchase them. CML itself comes with a set of images and related emulated hardware that you use with it. With EVE-NG you may have to bring your own images for them to emulate. Packet Tracer is a simulation, which means that it's not really running the software in background, it's just "simulating" it. This a great tool to but you may not get all the commands and features that are really there. The output itself can "simulated" as well not necessarily show you what would actually occur in hardware.
Anything above the CCNA level of study, I would say requires more involvement in building and learning the technology of CML, EVE-NG or GNS3 (this is my favorite because I've been using it forever). Today the most popular is CML2 and EVE-NG.
Which of the episodes in the legacy CCNP are you referring to since there are several CCNP courses in the legacy category?
Within the current CCNP ENCOR and CCNP ENARSI, the labs from the previous iteration of CCNP ROUTE, CCNP SWITCH, and CCNP TSHOOT are directly attached to the courses. This is to give access to the a real cisco racked lab environment for you. Those labs are not mapped to the current exam iteration but the content will help you learn the current content.

Hi Mr. Wong, Thank you for the terrific explanations on these practice options. Looks like I need to study your course "Hands-on with CISCO Modeling Labs 2 (CML2)". :)
Additionally I will zero-in on the CCNP ENCOR and CCNP ENARSI course material as it specifically relates to wireless technologies. Are ther any others possibly in the Microsoft courses?
Thank you for spending the time to give me practical material sink my teeth into. Awesome help as always!

@FLM,
As Anthony mentioned, you may find additional wireless coverage in the CompTIA Network+ course. Also you can find a little. bit in the CCNA course as well.
I cannot speak so much for wireless that is found in the microsoft courses.

Hello Mr. Wong. Oh boy! Sorry to disappoint you but I searched all of the Cisco and CompTIA courses and cannot find a single Practice Labs instance related to wireless configuration or troubleshooting. I have also requested help from Practice Labs but have not heard back yet. Please help.

@FLM,
You will probably not find a lab environment. Wireless labs require individuals to access real hardware on a one-to-one basis. I read, apparently mistakenly, you were looking for where we taught wireless in our courses.
We can only offer you guidance in terms of what is covered on the exam objectives. If you choose to do something like this, there are rack rentals of equipment that you may be able to purchase from different companies out there but many are vendor specific. I'm of any training provider offers what you're seeking without being at an onsite facility. If they are let me know who they are. I will see if is feasible for ITProTV to reachout and do something similar.

Hi Mr. Wong, Thank you for the reply.
I guess my objective is to first pursue the CWNA-107 offered by CWNP (https://www.cwnp.com/certifications/cwna) and then possibly work towards the Cisco 300-415 ENSDWI. I noticed that Cisco does have labs when studying for this. However, it is $750 and only for 6 months (ouch!). Oh well, I’ll keep looking. Thank you for any recommendations you may discover later. Respectfully

Just a simple update. I found that I could get some free labs through the Aruba/HPE educational site. Hope you find it useful if needed, good stuff.
