Using ATC VMware to build mutli-cloud networking Private Data Center Site CE and an AWS Cloud CE Site to show the ease in deployment. We also show how to quickly stitch these together for secure private communication.

The lab summarizes how F5 Distributed Cloud can discover, inventory, and secure critical APIs, helping you defend your known endpoints and bring the rogue Shadow APIs into the light. The connected world runs on APIs. Your banking app uses them, your ride share app uses them, even that weather app you check before walking out the door, it gets that data from an API. We interact with them multiple times throughout our daily life, to do everything from the most essential to the most mundane. They are simply everywhere and more and more are being published every day. As you would expect, this proliferation of APIs has marked them as a prime target for malicious actors. In the last couple years there have been quite a few well publicized attacks. From social media to fitness firms, no industry seems to be safe. With recent reports indicating that API vulnerabilities are costing businesses billions of dollars annually, it's no wonder they are at the top of mind of many cyber security professionals.

In today's cloud-centric, BYOD-driven and distributed microservices landscape, traditional security measures such as VPNs and perimeter defenses struggle to keep pace with the increasing need for enterprise security. Implicitly trusting entities within a network poses significant risks, necessitating a paradigm shift. Enter Zero Trust—an approach that requires independent security for every enterprise asset and authenticates and authorizes user and process identities at every level. This lab explores the critical role of OAuth in enabling a Zero Trust architecture and allows lab users to implement & test the OAuth Solution.

Welcome to the World Wide Technology / F5 Virtual Environment (vLab) setup and hands-on F5 201 Exam Lab exercises. The purpose of this guide is to provide a sampling of hands-on exercises to better understand the subjects outlined in the 201-TMOS Administration Exam. F5 certification exams are designed to required hands-on experience to pass the test and these exercises will help you deal with exam questions requiring you to interpret configuration and other outputs from the BIG-IP.
