The "Zero Cost" Remote Lab

The number of devices installed at the academies that are involved in the Cisco Networking Academy (CNA) program is very high. The idea to make devices available to community outside the class hours appears very early after launch of the program. During the past ten years many solutions were presented, including the "Remote lab" provided by CISCO. All of the solutions presented in the past were complex systems, which require additional hardware to be installed at additional cost. This contribution presents simple remote lab solution which can be built on existing devices with no additional expenses.
