Vibs,
Just FYI, NetMaster scenarios are designed so they can be used on 2 
switches.  They have 4 switchs in the lab, but all routers connect to 
just two of them.  This means you can modularize their labs and just 
skip those sections that require the 4 switches.  They say they do it 
this way because they know the switches are a real problem from an 
expense standpoint for many people.  Hong is right you have to run 
through scenarios a couple of times anyway, but their way you can do it 
once or twice in your own two switch lab, then use a rental lab for 
another run through.
Sincerely,
Bill
