This is spot-on. That said... there are things you can do to make your life easier. Use the screen! You are given nice 24" wide screen. Arrange terminal windows in a way it makes sense to you (personally, I arrange them diagonally, with R1 being top-left and Rx bottom right, switches form a square). Also, open all the routers in sequence, starting from R1. Again, I open switches first, then I have Notepad open and then routers. That way when I look at taskbar, I don't have to think where is my R3, or worry that title is all messed up. That said, it would be nice if title would actually state the name of the device and not to mention PuTTY connection manager or tabbed SecureCRT. That would totally rock. Well... perhaps we can hope. -- Marko Milivojevic - CCIE #18427 Senior Technical Instructor - IPexpert YES! We include 400 hours of REAL rack time with our Blended Learning Solution!
