How WWT Built its Digital Human in 5 Weeks

SRv6 utilizes the IPv6 data plane natively to deliver Segment Routing capabilities which dramatically simplifies network deployments. By eliminating the need for MPLS label shims and transporting SRv6 SIDs as IPv6 addresses, any IPv6 capable router can forward an SRv6 packet. This means that you can run SRv6 services over any IPv6-enabled infrastructure. This lab will introduce you to the basics of SRv6 with L3VPN over a purely IPv6 transport.

F5 Distributed Cloud WAF deployed on Regional Edge and App Connect Deployment mode. This deployment model offers an optimal solution for scenarios where backend applications are inaccessible from the internet, lacking a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or Public IP. In this case Customer Edge sites can be deployed to connect these "private" customer sites to the XC Global Network via IPSEC tunnels opened from Distributed Cloud Customer Edges to the closes two REs sites. Distributed Cloud WAF is deployed on the Regional Edges, where the services are being advertised to the Internet through anycast IPs. Customer Edges are being deployed on the customer sites and connect to the closest RE and traffic will be inspected by the WAAF security policy. The traffic will then be forwarded across the distributed cloud global network towards an egress Regional Edge and then over an IPSEC tunnel to the Customer edge site where it will be forwarded to the backend applications as pure IP-based traffic.

The Illumio Segmentation Lab is a demo intended to provide hands-on experience in performing both application dependency mapping and host-based segmentation using Illumio.

The Fortinet Next Generation Firewall (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 the Fortinet NGFW solution. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure.

Initiation is a Capture the Flag (CTF) lab meant to introduce you to the WWT Cyber Range platform and serve as a tutorial for future events. You will be introduced to the features and functionality as well as provided tips for success during future WWT Cyber Range CTFs. This lab will also allow you to test your access using the same platform we use for our live CTF events so you can make sure you will be ready on game day.

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 6, 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 to demo the building of 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, 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)

Cisco Catalyst Center takes a software-delivered approach to automating and assuring services across your campus, WAN and branch networks. Based on an open and extensible platform, Catalyst Center allows you to build value on the network, so you can streamline operations and facilitate IT and business innovation. This lab closely matches the Cisco SD-Access Foundation lab.

This Arista MP-BGP EVPN Lab provides exposure to the new technology and capabilities of the products used. This lab introduces the Arista Cloud Vision Portal(CVP) and introduces students to the basics of building the VXLAN L3LS Underlay, MP-BGP overlay, MLAG, Asymmetric and Symmetric IRB, and eternal L2/L3 connectivity. It also provides an in-depth look at Arista Cloud Vision Portal(CVP) and how to use it for day 0,1 building and day 2 operations. 3 VXLAN EVPN scenarios based on best practices from the Arista design guides, ACE3 course material, Arista TAC support the Arista EOS forum posts. There are many different ways to create an Arista-based VXLAN EVPN fabric; these labs present a migration phase from a standard 3 tier VLAN and SVI-based network to a VXLAN fabric, Then the fabric changes to using Asymmetrical IRB and Symmetrical IRB. BGP routing is the underlay, overlay and connectivity to the remote data center under migration.

Elastic Security provides a different approach to EDR by combing EDR and SIEM capabilities which leads to reduced mean time to detect and respond to threats. Elastic Security for endpoint prevents ransomware and malware, detects advanced threats and arms responders with vital investigative context, such as prioritized detections to help stop alert fatigue.

WWT's ATC CrowdStrike Proving Ground Lab exists to showcase the CrowdStrike Falcon platform's web UI and ability to alert on, and prevent, breaches using cloud data and machine learning.
