Networking Lab Creation and Configuration

This course will guide you in your journey to becoming a functional Network Engineer. This course will show the pros and cons of simulators/emulators you can use, how big should I make a lab or is complexity more important.

This course will walk you through setting up a lab for layer 2 and layer 3 configurations, whether you are connecting 2 computers on the same segment or routing across a network using various routing protocols.

Most importantly, my goal is to remove the inconsistencies and confusion or possibly fears that you may have about creating a lab using a simulator or using “real world” equipment.

When you are done with this course, I will be taking through a full length of concepts that you need to keep expanding your networking career. The fundamental concepts are an invaluable comprehension you can take away from the course.

The course will begin by explaining the Packet Tracer, GNS3, EVEng, and CML2. Then we will continue the journey with the basics of creating a simple network and take it all the way to using routing protocols and other tools that will be at your disposal to make an efficient, redundant network that adheres to the newer standards.
