NetSim® :: Network Simulation Software

Versatile, realistic network simulator

Other products simulate scripted labs for the end user's experience, without actually simulating what is really happening within the network. Boson's virtual packet technology creates individual packets that are routed and switched through the simulated network, allowing the Boson NetSim to build an appropriate virtual routing table, and simulate true networking. This technology allows many users of the Boson NetSim to go far beyond the scope of the examples in the included labs.

Boson offers three certification-focused products, NetSim for CCENT 7.0, NetSim for CCNA 7.0 and NetSim for CCNP 7.0.  Each supports the technologies and skills you will need for the respective certifications.

There are no other aftermarket router simulators that offer this much versatility and support. The Boson NetSim also includes a comprehensive lab menu that contains lessons and labs covering Routing Protocols, Cisco® Devices, Switching, Topological Design, and much more.

Testimonial

The package is complete, with the ability to create custom labs and one thing I found truly amazing - a virtual routing table. There is no other package I know of that offers this feature. Add to this the Boson exams for CCNA and you may have the most unbeatable combination..."
