Abstract

Many universities offer students to work on live networking equipment. Unfortunately this is not very efficient for teaching networking labs, especially if the size of the class is really large. The aim of this project is to create a virtual lab to help overcome the existing issues of limited hardware and accessibility in physical laboratories. The lab gives students the ability to deploy virtual instances of real life network devices. This lab will run within a single physical computer, hence providing a cheap and accessible solution for performing network practicals.
