CySA+ Lab issues

---

Hi, I'm having problems with the later labs - the Cisco based ones - where I'm getting zero connectivity between the admin PC and the Gateway - before doing any configuration changes.

Tried resetting multiple times but the same issues persist - most devices are booting with zero configuration (giving the "Would you like ...{yes/no]" option).

Advice? Thanks, mark

@Mark-Yule,

can you tell me which specific lab you're running so that I can take a look?

Hi Ronnie - currently I'm on the "Securing the Management Plane..." lab - but I had similar issues yesterday on all labs involving Cisco equipment.

After a 3rd reset. I left the lab - the NYEdge1 booted with zero config but then changed to NYEdge - then Edge2, Wan1,Core2 and the PLABCS001 machine went into a off/down state without any intervention from myself.

I could then ping the Default Gateway from the Vlan interface (.5) - I turned on the PLABCS001 machine but again this has zero connectivity - the Lab_Nic status is "No netwrok access" and on the NYAccess switch, interface f0/1 is down/down - no conncection ???

Thanks, Mark

@Mark-Yule,

I've just launched the lab within the last five minutes. It looks good from my end right now.

I'm assuming you may have connected to a rack that was having issues with the clean-up script that is supposed to run when the lab is exited.

Try now, if it continues to happen you can contact support@practice-labs.com.
My recommendation is if you do so, try and do a screen shot (yes, they'll want a full screenshots). Name of the lab, you're in, what browser you're using.

On your end, they'll ask you to clear out your browser cache and try again. Usually this works too.

Thanks @Ronnie-Wong , will do. :)
