Open labCCNP ENCOR labs for EVE-NG
The ENCOR labs take the CCNP Enterprise core topics to the command line: OSPF DR/BDR election, route summarization and prefix lists, eBGP neighbors, VRF, Rapid PVST+, EtherChannel with LACP, UDLD and secure VTY access. Each lab has a topology, initial configurations, tasks and a complete solution with verification output.
The labs are built for EVE-NG. If you have not set it up yet, follow the EVE-NG guide, then start with the free basic eBGP lab.
Network Skills is based in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Membership prices are in Uzbek som (UZS) and you pay online with Payme; the questions and labs work from anywhere.
