The Juniper SSR SD-WAN Foundations Lab is a capability of the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) designed to showcase the concept of a Juniper Session Smart Network and demonstrates how it functions in a real-world scenario. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

This Lab guide is intended for administrators who are responsible for deploying and configuring AOS 8 solutions. Participants should have at least a basic understanding of WLAN concepts. It is assumed that participants have at least a working understanding of fundamental wireless concepts as well as Aruba technology.

Sunbird DCIM gives data center operators the ability to run efficient data center operations and improve data center infrastructure planning and design. It typically replaces Excel, Visio and homegrown databases and can bridge information across organizational domains including Data Center Ops, Facilities and IT to maximize utilization of the data center.

The Cisco SD-WAN Foundations Lab is a capability of the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) designed to provide an environment to gain hands-on experience with the fundamental features of Cisco's SD-WAN solution. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

This lab is the Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 1, and after completion, the student can launch Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 2 to complete the entire lab. The lab uses the ACI virtual simulator based on ACI Version 5.0, emulating an APIC, 2 leafs, and a spine. Part 2 uses a shared physical ACI fabric to complete the policy and verify data plane connectivity. The ACI Virtual Simulator was needed as we built the ACI fabric from scratch, bootstrapping the APIC, adding the spine and leafs, fabric discovery, and completing VMM integration. Since the Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab, Part 2 is a shared on-demand environment, we had to decouple the APIC build process from the APIC policy creation. Due to limitations, the virtual ACI fabric is a control plane-only simulator, and no data plane testing (Ping, SSH) can get done for validation. Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 2 uses a Tenant inside of a physical ACI, and data plane functionality can get tested ( Ping, SSH)

NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP is a powerful, cost-effective, and easy-to-use data management solution for your cloud workloads. The familiar and reliable Cloud Volumes ONTAP data management software with its data protection and storage efficiency features is available in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.

Welcome to Pure Storage's Portworx lab for persistent container storage. Portworx's Enterprise Storage Platform is a complete storage and data management solution for your Kubernetes environments. Containers will benefit from container-granular storage, disaster recovery, data security, multicloud migrations and more.

Established in 2007, Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) was developed to secure the Federal Government's connections to the Internet. The first iteration of TIC, coined 1.0, focused on reducing external network connections to improve security posture. TIC 2.0 refined the original design by pushing for standardization across federal agencies. In its 3rd revision, TIC 3.0 introduces flexibility, security and visibility to accommodate cloud, mobile and encrypted applications, services and environments.

This is an On-Demand Lab for VMware NSX-T. It provides the same lab experience as the one day NSX-T training class but without the slide content and on-site architect. This lab is not meant to teach operations, best practices or replace VMware's hands-on classes.

Zscaler is responsible for securing more than 400 of the Forbes Global 2000 companies. They provide security as a service delivered through a purpose-built, globally distributed platform. The focus of this lab is zero trust access utilizing a solution known as Zscaler Private Access (ZPA). ZPA is a cloud service that provides seamless, zero trust access to private applications running on public cloud or within the data center. With ZPA, applications don't need to be exposed to the internet, making them completely invisible to unauthorized users. This service enables the applications to connect to users via inside-out connectivity versus extending the network to them. It disrupts legacy approaches to remote access such as traditional VPN, establishing per-service dynamic encryption and trust evaluation.

The Palo Alto NGFW Foundations Lab is a capability of the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) designed to provide an environment to gain hands-on experience with the fundamental features of Palo Alto's solution. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

Cisco's ACI Anywhere vision is to allow a single security and connectivity policy with a single pane of glass to manage all multicloud environments. The key to ACI Anywhere is the ACI Multi-Site Orchestrator (MSO), which allows the administrator to create consistent security and connectivity policies across multiple physical, virtual, and cloud-based sites. Please note that these four ACI Multisite lab modules are 301 level and our 101 and 201 ACI training labs should be completed before attempting these labs. Basic ACI concepts, labs, and tutorials are explained in detail in our ACI 101 and 202 level training labs. In addition, we also recommend reading our articles on ACI and multi-pod and multisite fundamentals before doing the labs for a thorough learning experience. Please go to the resources to see our recommended ACI syllabus to become an ACI expert.
