KB Mega Lab

LIVE

The Mega Lab has been crafted by Khawar to teach real world applications of various Networking & Security Technologies as experienced by Network Engineers in real world professional situations. The Course will focus on a hands-on demonstration and explanation of the Mega Lab. The technologies that are covered in the Mega Lab: Core Routing (OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP, BGP); Switching; MPLS VPN (Intra-AS & Inter-AS); Firewalls (ASA & FTD); SD-WAN; ISE; and VPNs. Khawar will teach how these technologies are integrated in a real life environment.
