CCNA Network Simulator

CCNA Network Simulator is a software tool that simulates a router/switch network. The tool should typically be able to:
  • Simulate a router
  • Simulate a switch
  • Simulate a router/switch network
  • Design a router/switch network
  • Save semi-finished configurations, and reload for later resumption
  • Save the work to a text file for later use.

A router simulator is essential for having hands-on practice. Ofcourse, if you can buy routers and switches and make physical network that would be fine, but normally does not justify the costs involved.

CCNA network simulators are available from the following sources:
