Learning Paths and Labs
WWT's Labs and Learning provides on-demand and hands-on education with practical experience and skill-building.
VMware NSX-T Virtual Lab
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.

VMware NSX-T
VMware NSX Datacenter(NSX-T) platform allows the creation of secure virtual networks on top of your current physical network and virtual server infrastructure. SDN abstracts the underlying infrastructure of your network and programs separate virtual networks using the software. Using the NSX-T manager to create the NSX infrastructure, we prepare the Compute and Edge hosts participating in NSX. The compute hosts connect to the DC fabric, typically a CLOS or Spine/Leaf architecture. The Edge is connected to the DC fabric and external switches to provide public and private routing to WAN and Internet.
Using the software, NSX can recreate entire physical networks, from the layer two switching, complex BGP routing, and FWs load balancers VPNs. This is possible by creating layer 3 Virtual Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPs) that use the Geneve encapsulation protocol to create an overlay in the compute and Edge cluster hosts. This overlay can then build layers two and three segments to connect our Virtual NSX routing and switch infrastructure.
This Geneve Encapsulated Overlay also allows us to create a Physical to Virtual (P/V) point where we can either encapsulate the virtual networks and send them across the layer three underlays or decapsulate to connect to devices outside NSX.
Learning Path
Cisco Networking: Routing Protocols
This Learning Series focuses on core routing protocols, guiding you through structured learning paths for EIGRP, OSPF, and BGP. Through hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, you'll build practical skills in designing, configuring, and troubleshooting routed networks. The journey begins with EIGRP, where you'll learn about its fundamentals, metrics, and efficient route propagation. Next, you'll dive into OSPF, exploring areas, LSAs, and hierarchical design for scalable networks. Finally, you'll master BGP, understanding path selection, policy control, and its role in internet-scale routing.
Ideal for network engineers, IT professionals, and anyone looking to strengthen their routing expertise, this series provides a progressive path from foundational concepts to advanced implementation.
Learning Series
Cisco Networking: Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
This Learning Series covers essential EIGRP routing concepts and skills, forming a critical foundation for modern network engineering. Through hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, you'll gain practical experience configuring, verifying, and troubleshooting EIGRP in a variety of environments. The journey begins with EIGRP Foundations, where you'll learn about neighbor relationships, DUAL operations, route advertisements and more. Next, you'll explore EIGRP Intermediate concepts such as route summarization, variance, unequal-cost load balancing, route filtering, and redistribution. Ideal for aspiring network engineers, IT professionals, or anyone seeking to deepen their expertise in scalable, dynamic IP routing using EIGRP.

Zscaler CTF: Code Blue
Zscaler delivers a cloud‑native security platform to protect and enable modern organizations. This Capture the Flag event highlights core Zscaler technologies, giving you the chance to test your skills against real‑world threats.
Tools Utilized in the game:
🔷 Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) – secure web gateway, threat detection, and traffic inspection
🔷 Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) – zero trust access to internal applications
You and your team defend Sea Cure Health, a healthcare organization under attack by the APT group SCRUBzero. Suspicious traffic, phishing lures, and SQL injection attempts threaten patient data. Your mission: investigate alerts, trace attacker actions, and use Zscaler technologies to stop exfiltration and secure critical systems.
