Browser-based Cisco troubleshooting labs with real-world faults, automated scoring, and full instructor visibility. No hardware. No install. Just real IOS.
Traditional tools teach configuration. They don't teach troubleshooting. That gap costs real money when graduates hit production.
Cisco hardware costs thousands per rack. Most institutions can't scale access for every student.
Simulators don't replicate real IOS behaviour. Students hit problems on real gear for the first time at work.
Self-hosted virtualisation demands expensive machines, complex setup, and constant maintenance.
No visibility into who's practising, who's stuck, or who needs help. Configs are checked manually.
Debugging is taught anecdotally, never practised. Students can't diagnose under pressure.
Provisioning topologies, wiping configs, managing access — it all takes time away from actual learning.
The result? Graduates who can configure a router but can't figure out why it's not working.
This is not another lab provider. vLab injects real-world faults into live networks — and your students have to find and fix them.
Every session injects different faults from a pool. No two runs are identical. Students can't memorise the answer.
Scored on three axes: did they fix it, how efficiently they diagnosed it, and how fast they worked.
Every session generates a debrief — the faults, the optimal path, and every command ran.
From step-by-step guidance to high-pressure troubleshooting — every stage of skill development covered.
Step-by-step tasks with CLI commands, live topology, and AI tutor. Builds foundational skills with real IOS — not simulation.
Real-world briefs. No commands given. Students design and build the entire solution. Auto-verified against requirements.
Random faults injected every session. Diagnose, fix, get scored. The closest thing to a real outage your students will face.
Full classroom management with assignments, gradebook, and real-time activity tracking.
One screen for everything — class-wide stats, topic performance, struggling students, and live activity.
Assign labs, track completion, view scores — without manual config checking.
No installs, no VPNs, no waiting. Click a lab, get a real Cisco terminal.
Total labs, completion rate, average score, time spent, performance by topic — all on one page.
Stuck on a task? The AI tutor analyses your failed checks and points you toward the fix — without giving the answer away.
Students graduate knowing how to diagnose and fix real network faults — not just configure them.
Dynamic faults and scored sessions create urgency. Students actually practise.
Zero hardware. Zero setup. Instructors focus on teaching, not infrastructure.
