IT Administrators will be able to learn the management interface of Microsoft System Center Configuration (SCCM) and the configuration needed to deploy software install packages to Windows 10 desktop. The admin will also view the results of the discovery and installation of the software from the end-user perspective.

This lab is the Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 1, and after completion, the student can launch Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 2 to complete the entire lab. The lab uses the ACI virtual simulator based on ACI Version 5.0, emulating an APIC, 2 leafs, and a spine. Part 2 uses a shared physical ACI fabric to complete the policy and verify data plane connectivity. The ACI Virtual Simulator was needed as we built the ACI fabric from scratch, bootstrapping the APIC, adding the spine and leafs, fabric discovery, and completing VMM integration. Since the Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab, Part 2 is a shared on-demand environment, we had to decouple the APIC build process from the APIC policy creation. Due to limitations, the virtual ACI fabric is a control plane-only simulator, and no data plane testing (Ping, SSH) can get done for validation. Cisco ACI Fundamentals Lab Part 2 uses a Tenant inside of a physical ACI, and data plane functionality can get tested ( Ping, SSH)

The Palo Alto NGFW Foundations Lab is a capability of the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) designed to provide an environment to gain hands-on experience with the fundamental features of Palo Alto's solution. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

Binary Armor is setup to defend a simulated electrical substation using a NovaTech Orion LXm. In such a substation, the RTU would receive commands over the network and apply changes to reclosers (a physical device) in the substation which control the flow of power. This lab will show how Binary Armor can protect a substation from several attacks including insider threat.
