iCCNAlab is an on-line lab accessible over the Internet. It consists of a hosted cloud of CCNA lab pods. Within seconds you can connect to a pod to practice Cisco IOS commands on various Cisco Routers and Switches. It allows a hands-on learning experience without having to buy expensive equipment.

iCCNAlab allows access to the online lab from anywhere through your mobile Apple device.

iCCNAlab is for beginners interested in familiarizing themselves with the complex environment and for intermediate or expert users looking to sharpen their skills and move to a higher level. It provides a safe environment to practice. You don't have to worry about bringing down the equipment/network and affecting other users.

iCCNAlab allows Network Engineers to practice for CCNA and other certifications instead of just reading instructions. It enables Training organizations to supply a remote Virtual lab to students along with the classroom training or e-learning courses. Students can interact with Routers and Switches, just like with real devices.

Interact with the routers and switches, just like real devices:

Network of 7 devices

Cisco Routers (2811, 3640 and 7206)

Four Cisco Switches (2950, 3550 (2) and 6500)

A large set of IOS Commands for Router and Switch operations

LAN, WAN, ISDN and Serial links

Ability to Reconfigure the lab

You can Telnet in to any of these devices as if they are connecting to real devices. You can open as many Telnet connections as the device supports. You can also connect to it using a Console connection. It fully supports the Cisco IOS® command line interface (CLI).

Device Operations

Logging in/out

Get into and out of different modes - User, Privileged, Configuration, Interface

Set passwords, IP addresses, clock rates, hostname, bandwidth

Assign routing protocols - RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, BGP, OSPF, IS-IS

Configure IPv4 or IPv6 addresses

VLAN configuration; Rapid-PVST configuration

Ping/Telnet other devices in the lab

Save/load configurations

Reload configuration using flash or TFTP protocol

Configuration of ISDN, CDP, PPP, Frame Relay ACL and NAT protocols

and many other functions required for certifications

Lab Operations

Start/Stop devices, individually or in a group

Reconfigure the lab by adding and removing connections between the devices

View the topology with connections and addresses

Open Telnet and Console sessions

Sometimes you need to practice the lab when you are not connected to the Internet (eg. on a plane). For those situations, you want to run the MIMIC Virtual Lab CCNA on your own desktop.

If you are interested in creating your own devices and topology, the MIMIC Simulator Suite is available separately. You can simulate a lab environment in excess of 10,000 devices. It includes MIMIC Recorder to record Cisco devices to help create the lab topology you need.
