Hello and welcome to this lecture in this lecture.
We talk about preparing the lab environment on your own P.C. so as a network engineer you know already
that practicing it's absolutely important.
So this section is dedicated to how to transform your laptop windows again or Mac OS operating system
into a true lab environment.
So have talked about in the previous lecture about the course lapped apology but this is just the logical
topology now in terms of how the real topology or the hardware to say so topology looks like.
Well this is it.
So this is a snapshot from the genus tree so we will deploy to 48 firewalls and NASA firewall.
I have also talked about a Windows management station.
So because our resources on the windows P.C. or again on your P.C. whatever operating system it is are
limited.
We could have deployed let's say 3 3 management stations for each of the firewalls.
So let's say like this.
So we could have had one here connecting to the management port and again one here and again one here.
But it this setup would have meant that we would be running three windows machine.
So three windows machines to say so which means three times the resourcing the resources needed on your
on your P.C..
So what I did is basically installed in the indigenous tree topology only one machine.
And this is the machine.
I have also installed multiple neat cards.
So three new cards three interface cards and connected to the HP 48 the branch for the gate and also
the management board of the Cisco RSA and this is basically a perfect setup you don't need more than
this in order to configure the devices.
Now you also see in this in this lab topology I have provided the IP addressing this is what I will
be using in the course.
So you may use others or you may use this specific IP addressing this is up to you.
And now that we have basically talked about how it looks and what should be done let's go on genius
3 and build in a fast manner the topology so that we can get started.
Now before we do that let's say that you don't know how to build your genius to be set up on your P.C.
right.
Well the good news is that I have prepared and you will see this on the platform.
I have prepared a free course for you.
So if you look my name if you look up my name is the ROV.
And then look at the course list I have I have public now.
The last one is Build Your Own networking learning environment on Janus 3.
This is a free course.
So I highly advise you to enroll.
Now let's let's take a look on what's included.
So you would first have to download and install the genius free software.
This is available again both for.
For Windows and Mac OS then you will learn how to create a project in genius 3 and use the VPC or the
VPC as this is the virtual P.C. simulator.
It's a lightweight version of a piece it allows you to being and see the art table.
So basic stuff that that you need in order to do some testing then you will learn how to download install
and integrate the genius free VM with the genius degree and I will not.
I will not lose you or any way.
Do not make use of your time in a proper manner.
Now and explain what is the genius tree VM and how it works.
Please enroll in this course and you will have all the necessary information.
Now because in our course we have.
You will see a rather Iris and also an essay.
You will have to go through this lecture as well so lecture number five in the section Second Section.
Build a topology with Cisco devices as you have seen.
We also have a Windows machine so you will have to go through this lecture as well so connect the windows
vm to your network topology and very important because we have 48 firewalls there.
Please go through lecture number 8 install and use the 40.
The footnote for the Great Firewall appliance although in this lecture you will see that I have deployed
five that's 5 that 6 version.
At the time of the recording now we have 6 that 0 available so you have to do the same thing but for
the for the last version if you want to run it.
So it's up to you again.
Now this is everything that I wanted to tell you in this lecture.
Please join me in the next lecture where we actually build a genius tree apology on your P.C..
So thanks a lot and see you in the upcoming lecture.
