Guided networking practice labs: CCNA, CCNP, Network+, MikroTik and more

Every CloudLabBox workspace has a read-only Shared folder of ready-built EVE-NG labs, written and tested by CloudLabBox and grouped by course. Pick a course, check the plan its labs need, then open them in your own workspace.

What each plan runs

EVE-NG admits a node by the vCPU and RAM configured on it, so each lab needs the total its nodes are set to. Every plan includes every guided lab; a bigger plan runs bigger ones, and the free demo runs the smaller ones.

How to open a guided lab

  1. Sign in to your workspace at lab.cloudlabbox.com.

  2. In File Manager, open Shared, then the course’s folder: each course page names it.

  3. Open a lab and start its nodes, then open Lab Tasks for the steps where the lab has them.

The labs are read-only. You can start the nodes and configure the devices, but changes to the topology can’t be saved. To change a lab, rebuild it in your own folder.

Questions about the guided labs

Are the guided labs free?

They’re included with every lab plan, with nothing extra to pay, rather than free. Plans start at £3 a day or £0.50 an hour. To try one first, the free demo gives you 30 minutes with 6 vCPU and 8 GB, enough to run 467 of the guided labs.

Are these labs from the vendors or exam bodies?

No. CloudLabBox wrote them to follow the topics of the vendors’ and exam bodies’ published exams and training outlines. They aren’t vendor training material, and CloudLabBox is independent of Arista Networks, Cisco, CompTIA, Fortinet, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Huawei, Juniper Networks, MikroTik, Netgate, Palo Alto Networks and the Wireshark Foundation.

Can I run them in the free demo?

Yes, 467 of the 684. The demo has 6 vCPU and 8 GB for 30 minutes, so it runs any lab whose nodes fit in that together. Each lab page says whether its lab fits, and its Try it free button opens the demo with that lab named. Bigger labs need a plan that fits the course.

How did you work out the plan each lab needs?

We added up the vCPU and RAM each lab’s nodes are set to, as EVE-NG lists them, because EVE-NG admits a node by what’s configured on it. VPCS hosts count as 1 vCPU and the 1,024 MB EVE-NG lists for them, and a plan’s RAM counts as 1,000 MB per GB, so a fit is never borderline. Each lab’s Lab Tasks pane names the same plan.

Can I change a guided lab?

You can start the nodes and configure the devices, but the labs are read-only: changes to the topology can’t be saved. To change one, rebuild it in your own folder.

CloudLabBox is independent of Arista Networks, Cisco, CompTIA, Fortinet, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Huawei, Juniper Networks, MikroTik, Netgate, Palo Alto Networks and the Wireshark Foundation. The labs follow exam topics and aren’t vendor training material; vendor names identify the exams and the images in the workspace.
