= Lab Setup =

In this Hands-on we will install all dependencies and basic network design.  We will use Oracle Virtual Box and GNS3 software to virtualize the lab network.

All participants are grouped into two as '''User A''' and '''User B''' and the group details including IP subnets can be found from here.

For each group;

* User A needs to install GNS3 and Virtual Box 
* User B needs to install Virtual Box only

Both users must change their host machines (Laptop) IP address as per the above-linked table and it is advised to use the wired network. 

We will create a virtual network on User A and related servers on User B due to RAM limitations on Physical Devices. 

> Virtualized appliances will be connected via UDP tunnels and these must be neglected for your actual physical installations.



== Download Dependencies ==
* Download Oracle Virtual Box from here
* Download pfsense image from here ( only on User A)
* Download GNS3 from here
* Download Required router images
   * Image 1
   * Image 2
* Download all server VM's on User B
   * OVA1
   * OVA2
   * OVA3

=== Install Virtual Box ===

On both users, Install Virtual Box software with default settings, make sure you have enabled virtualization support from your host machine BIOS.

Import OVA files into Oracle virtual box from File Import Appliance

While importing make sure to Tick reinitialize the MAC address of all your network cards.

This should import Virtual Machines for pfsense on User A and server machines + GUI on User B

As soon as you import vm's, change your VM network connections as follows;

* '''User A : pfSense VM'''

'''Adapter 1:'''[[br]]
     Attached to: Bridged Adapter[[br]]
     Name: ![[Your Physical Adapter Name]][[br]]
     Promiscuous Mode: Allow All[[br]]
     Cable Connected

'''Adapter 2:'''[[br]]
     Attached to: Generic Driver[[br]]
     Name: UDPTunnel[[br]]
     Generic Properties:[[br]]
          dest=127.0.0.1[[br]]
          dport=30000[[br]]
          sport=20000[[br]]
     Cable Connected

'''Adapter 3:'''[[br]]
     Attached to: Generic Driver[[br]]
     Name: UDPTunnel[[br]]
     Generic Properties:[[br]]
          dest=127.0.0.1[[br]]
          dport=30001[[br]]
          sport=20001[[br]]
     Cable Connected

>Note down all mac addresses as we need them to decide which port connects to which network later when installing pfsense)


* '''User B : GUI VM'''

'''Adapter 1:'''[[br]]
     Attached to: Generic Driver[[br]]
     Name: UDPTunnel[[br]]

          dport=30002[[br]]
          sport=20002[[br]]
     Cable Connected

     Generic Properties:[[br]]
          dest=//![[IPv4 of UserA]]//[[br]]
          dport=30003[[br]]
          sport=20003[[br]]
     Cable Connected

* '''User B: Monitoring Server VM'''

'''Adapter 1:'''[[br]]

=== Install GNS3 ===

'''On __User A__ host machines''', download latest GNS3 from local ftp link here and go through the installation steps from [https://docs.gns3.com/11YYG4NQlPSl31YwvVvBS9RAsOLSYv0Ocy-uG2K8ytIY/index.html# here]

> Please note that the link between pfSense and the LEARN Router nodes are for illustration purposes only. You are not allowed to connect them via connections as both of them are cloud devices. As we are directly using a bridged interface for pfSense WAN, you may use a "Drawn line" to complete the diagram.
