Abstract

This study introduces an ongoing project that allows instructors to teach networking classes using virtual technologies at our university. This paper concentrates on the implementation of a novel design for hands-on student lab by combining the use of both emulation and software simulation technologies. The redesigned lab saves more than ninety percent of the lab equipment cost, greatly improves the lab availability to the students, and eases the lab administration and management. The outcomes from this study will be disseminated to many colleges through the Cisco Networking Academy program which is currently adopted in thousands of locations nationwide and around world.
