A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to win a Blended learning solution for the CCIE Voice track from IPExpert on twitter. I am not currently studying for my CCIE, so I traded it to a good friend in return for blog posts about his experience.
For those of you wondering, I will continue to blog the same way I always have in the past. James will just be contributing with tips and other stuff related to the CCIE Voice Track. Everyone, give a warm welcome to Mr James.

Hey James Welcome!!
I am studying to become a CCVP and I will be readying your blogs constantly. I do use Dynamips but please let me know what equipment I can buy to practice. Also I was interested in using http://www.proctorlabs.com what would be your suggestion. Thank you James for coming on. I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the welcome!
AK - Dynamips can be used for a voice lab with some exceptions. Since Dynamips doesn’t support DSPs, you will be unable to configure transcoding, conference bridges, etc. No voice port configurations (FXS, FXO, PRI, CAS), no LAN QoS, no CUE. I plan on making a blog entry regarding the equipment in my lab, as well as some recommendations for a minimal CCVP/CCIE voice home lab.
As Far as ProctorLabs.com, I have yet to use their racks, but they look great and I have several sessions lined up. I have been using rack time from ccbootcamp, which is also very good.
Good luck on your CCVP!
