Hey all,
I’m starting off my “Vol 1.5″ series labs from today, where will be posting labs which i’m doing . These labs are slightly larger than the vol1 labs and they focus on multiple technologies at the same time. My aim is to get as close to Vol 2 labs as possible
Also Ryan is my CCIE-sec study-partner and we’re following a systematic approach to nail the beast! Thanks, Ryan.
I use Graded labs for my rack-rentals. So the inital configurations are all modified to suit graded-labs.
TARGET TIME : 4 hours
TOPOLOGY :
Please let me know if you have any issues with the configuration,etc and please forgive any mistakes in the initial configurations.
Cheers,
TacACK
P.S : Please use either a AAA server or local authentication/authorization for the tasks. I’ll post a lab soon where it uses only the AAA server

Hey partner in crime… Was just curious where you have the ACS server dangling from….

Hey bro,
I don’t have an ACS server here, all the Authentication,authorization can be done locally. This is cause the INE AAA server was hanging.
But feel free to add in the ACS server if you like
Cheers,

Thanks for your kind words
I hope to improve and post better articles/labs.
Vol 1.5 labs are labs which are a mix of many Vol 1 technologies where you slowly get accustomed to focusing on different technologies in 1 lab. Plus you go from Vol 1 labs where there is no time constraint , to Vol 1.5 labs where you have small time constraints.
My aim , if successful, is to bridge the wide gap between Vol 1 and Vol 2 labs. I want to feel confident about the Vol 2 labs even before i start them. Please keep your comments coming
Cheers,
TacACK
