Cisco Modeling Labs


Cisco Modeling Labs is our premier platform for network simulation. With an easy-to-use HTML5 UI and a comprehensive API, Cisco Modeling Labs makes it fun to design, test, troubleshoot, and learn.

Welcome to the world of network simulation

Cisco Modeling Labs is an on-premises network simulation tool that runs on workstations and servers. With Cisco Modeling Labs, you can quickly and easily simulate Cisco and non-Cisco networks, using real Cisco images. This gives you highly reliable models for designing, testing, and troubleshooting. Compared to building out real-world labs, Cisco Modeling Labs returns results faster, more easily, and for a fraction of the cost.

Life is good when you can lab from anywhere

Features

  • Clustering Phase II (Enterprise and Education only): An update to the latest clustering feature (which enables horizontal scaling across multiple servers) that now offers management enhancements to allow more control over your compute nodes.
  • UI changes: Annotations, such as rectangles, ellipses, and text lines, to provide richer tables with documentation and more customization.
  • New reference platform (Catalyst 9000v), improved IPv6 support, and accessibility improvements, especially targeting visually impaired users.

Benefits

  • Design, test, and troubleshoot on virtual equipment at a fraction of the cost
