I think something like GNS3 or PacketTracer would be better for practicing networking/routing. Although of course those are both geared towards Cisco IOS.
I've played with some HP and 3com switches as well and their command set is pretty similar to Cisco. So I think any CCNA course/book would be a good starting point.
