Cisco Packet Tracer 5.3

Случайно наткнулся в сети на новую версию Packet Tracer. Мне трудно оценить насколько он стал лучше, потому что я им практически не пользуюсь. Пока. В дальнейшем думаю придется им пользоваться так как часть лабораторных работ можно выполнить только на нем. К тому же, иногда проскакивают в сети Packet Tracer Activity сценарии, которые могут быть неоценимым подспорьем в подготовке к тесту. Ниже приведу описание релиза на английском и ссылку на скачивание.
