Wow! I wish I would have had this too when I studying CCNA/CCNP. Thanks for the great link.

Looking for some help with this. I've got Cygwin installed, file.exe installed, and dynamips(emulator) installed. Not finding a lot of docs on this. Looks great maybe because I'm trying to use on XP. Dunno. I have 3640 IOS's 12.4.
Thanks in advance.

Hello!

I downloaded and tried to install a CISCO 7200, IOS emulator on WinXP, but when it comes to decompressing the files, I see the same error message: cygwin1.dll is missing. I already have this .dll file downloaded, but I cannot open it. I am being sent on a wild goose chase to find a program to help execute and install it, but I am unable to find the proper program.
I would like to use the emulator to help me prepare for my CCNA Cert.
Can you give me any advice?

pls i really need a cisco emulator for my training but i am broke because i m building a career in this field

The emulator also requires a Cisco IOS that can be downloaded from http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/pub/Redirect.x?mdfid=268437987

However, you need to be a Cisco customer in order to download it.

This is amazing. I didnt think it would be this good..
