Practice labs
- Subnetting: one question a minute: You solve ten subnetting questions from a checker script in the terminal, one minute each, and see your score.
- Work back from an address to network and mask: From a given address and host count you quickly find the right mask, network address and broadcast address.
- Mixed IPv4 and IPv6 speed round: In fifteen minutes you finish a mixed round of IPv4 subnetting, IPv6 shortening and prefix questions.
- Type the ports of twenty-five services: You type the port and protocol of twenty-five services asked by a checker script and put the misses on a review list.
- Sort devices and protocols into layers: You prepare an answer file placing thirty devices, protocols and concepts into the OSI layers.
- Command output reading round: In eight questions built on ping, traceroute, dig and ss output you write the fault and its cause in short answers.
- Build your score table by domain: You score earlier practice answers with a script and write success rates and targets for the five domains in a table.
- Mixed operations and security set: You choose the best answer in twelve monitoring, backup and network-attack scenarios and write your reasoning.
- Hands-on mini mock: In twenty-five minutes you complete and verify a subnet, a static route, a DNS record and an access list task in the lab.
- Match symptom to cause: You match fifteen fault symptoms to their likely causes and write them into an answer file.
- Pick the right tool: In twelve scenarios you pick the command or hardware tool that solves the problem and describe its use in one line.
- Live fault sprint: In twenty minutes you find and fix three settings the lab network broke at random and verify each.

Frequently asked questions
- Is this course right for my level?
- The course is at level 201; it assumes you know the topics of the lower-level courses.
- Is there anything to install?
- No. Every lesson runs in your own lab environment that opens in the browser.
