A virtual network laboratory for learning IP networking

Abstract: In this paper, a network laboratory for distance learning of basic concepts in IP networking is presented. Through a web interface, students can choose various configurations of a real private network (number of routers and subnetworks, use of IPv4/IPv6, etc.), and learn about them using Linux network commands. The utilization of the virtual laboratory and how it is implemented are described.

“…Our proposed curriculum includes a conceptual design of a security laboratory, which can be shared across programmes. In the past, we have conducted networking and security exercises with minimal laboratory configurations using virtual sub-networks (similar to [14]) and we have discovered that, while this is a good way of teaching basic concepts, it does not allow us to achieve the required level of detail. We suggest an isolated laboratory set-up based on a flexible network configuration.…”

“…Reference [5] described an Internet-based computer laboratory for DSP courses, in which all the programs are implemented as stand-alone Java Applets. Reference [6] presents a virtual network laboratory for learning IP network, in which one Ethernet Switch and many personal computers running on Linux operation system act as simulation equipment in the server. Users input Linux network commands by using the Web which then receives output from the server.…”
