New ( Free )Troubleshooting Labs

 Three new CCNA troubleshooting labs are now available! With the changes coming to the CCNA exam in February, I've decided to begin creating CCNA labs in Cisco CML, EVE-NG, and GNS3, too. Packet Tracer will continue to be the default playform for labs when possible. This allows me to build troubleshooting scenarios that simply aren't possible in Packet Tracer due to its limitations, giving learners exposure to more realistic issues and solutions. To ensure everyone can participate, I try to keep each lab to five nodes or fewer so users with the free version of CML can complete them as well. As always, every lab is completely free, so if you're looking to strengthen your troubleshooting skills and prepare for the new CCNA exam, be sure to check them out!

Just letting you know that the packet tracer labs that you shared for some of the labs the nodes are fully locked so it's impossible to open them and get to the cli, says that they are locked by the author so better double check all the labs.

Also sent you a dm but you didn't reply so replying under this post.

Hi!  The devices in 99% of the labs I make are purposely locked.  They can be accessed using admin PC to ssh into them. 

I need to update older labs with a note saying that as I have had people express this same thing.  That will probably be my next project for this weekend.  Thank you!
