You may also allow the class to make "pod-only" reservations using the CCNA 4.x pod types listed above. To enable pod-only reservations, check the box for "AE CCNA Pod Reservations (no labs)" in the class settings. These reservations are not tied to specific lab exercises. Therefore, the pod will be configured using the default network configuration. Please note, however, not all CCNA labs use the default network configuration and must be completed by selecting the correct lab exercise (see the following discussion).
Students or teams should schedule the correct lab exercise from the catalog. NETLABAE will only show those labs for which the required pod type is available. A lab that works on different pod types may appear more than once if your system is so equipped.
Instructors should select the correct lab from the Exercise tab during instructor-led lab reservations. This can be done as many times as needed during the reservation.
Several of the labs differ from the standard pod topologies. This is handled by NETLABAE's Dynamic VLAN Mapping technology. Always select the correct lab exercise for the actual lab. This insures that NETLABAE will set up VLANs on the control switch such that lab devices and PCs are placed in the correct LAN segment for the exercise being performed. Selecting the correct exercise will also make the completed lab output easier to find in the archive.
