Learning Paths and Labs
WWT's Labs and Learning provides on-demand and hands-on education with practical experience and skill-building.
Palo Alto NGFW Intermediate Version 11 Lab
The Palo Alto NGFW Intermediate Lab is a hand-on virtual environment where you'll be able to complete the exercises you see in the Intermediate learning path as well as several new practicals. The Intermediate lab focuses on tasks like SSL Decryption, URL Filtering, and DNS Tunneling. Just like the Foundations lab, the Intermediate lab is built upon the same infrastructure. While there is a guide that you can follow along with, you can also explore the environment and test any configuration you'd like.

Extreme Networks Foundations
In this Learning Path, you will build a foundational understanding of enterprise networking concepts and the Extreme Networks platform. Starting from core networking principles, including switching and routing fundamentals, this path introduces IS-IS as the control plane that powers Extreme Fabric Connect, explaining how it builds and distributes topology information across the fabric to enable automatic VLAN reachability without manual route configuration. Learners will explore how BGP bridges the fabric to the WAN, enabling inter-site routing and internet access through Extreme SD-WAN appliances — whether traffic is forwarded directly over the WAN transport or selectively broken out locally based on policy. Together these technologies provide the groundwork for understanding how modern enterprise networks are designed, interconnected, and extended across multiple sites with Extreme Networks.
Learning Path

Zscaler Internet Access: Secure Branch SSE (SASE Lab Series)
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), coined by Gartner in 2019, is a solution that blends networking and security into cloud-scale architecture that optimizes end user performance and improves security for an organization. Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) is a secure Internet and web gateway cloud-delivered SASE service that sits between the users and the internet. ZIA will inspect every byte of traffic inline across multiple security techniques providing full protection from web and internet threats. The SASE Lab Series will look to explore the capabilities of the solution to provide you with a "rubber meets road" understanding of these technologies and how SASE can be applied in your company.
