 The project should be related to one of the three topics covered in the course (cloud, virtualization, and/or network programmability). You may either expand on one of the tools that we used in the course or explore a different tool in the same topic area. Your project plan should be approved by the instructor. Remember that the project is 15% of your final grade so it is expected to be a substantial amount of work.
-===Grading===
+==Presentations Tips==
 There will be two primary components to your grade for the project, a lab report and a presentation.

Do you have a good understanding of how you could use this to solve future problems you come across?

			Finally, a small portion of your grade for the project presentation (10% of the presentation score) will be writing a short review of each of the other project presentations. These are not simply participation points for filling out a review, your review will be graded for quality so be sure you listen carefully and provide useful feedback in your review.

			** '''NOTE:''' In this lab activity you will, amongst other things download and install the OpenConnect VPN client which is used to connect to the DevNet sandbox labs. Unfortunately there is a bug in this software which prevents OpenVPN (which you may use for connecting to ITCnet to reach Netlab) from resetting Windows DNS server addresses. This will prevent you from accessing ITCnet resources such as Netlab, even after disconnecting from the DevNet sandbox VPN in OpenConnect. To fix this after EACH time you use OpenConnect to access DevNet sandboxes after disconnecting you will need to open your network adapter properties for the "TAP-Windows Adapter" and open the IPv4 settings. You will see that OpenConnect has left DNS set as "Use the following DNS server addresses" with two addresses filled in. Change the setting back to "Obtain DNS server address automatically" and save the settings. The next time you connect to OpenVPN you should have access to the ITCnet DNS server and resources again.

	** Note that on page 2 of the "Cisco DNA Center Platform - Authentication" lab and in some future labs you may receive an error about SSL certificates when running code. Because the Cisco DNAC has a self-signed certificate you will need to change Python Requests function calls from things like: <code>requests.post(url, auth=HTTPBasicAuth(DNAC_USER, DNAC_PASSWORD))</code> to things like <code>requests.post(url, auth=HTTPBasicAuth(DNAC_USER, DNAC_PASSWORD), verify=False)</code> by setting the verify flag to false you can tell the Python requests library to ignore SSL certificate verification.		** Note that on page 2 of the "Cisco DNA Center Platform - Authentication" lab and in some future labs you may receive an error about SSL certificates when running code.

			** Note that in the "End to End Visibility and Assurance with Path Trace and Cisco DNA Center Platform" lab you should re-check the "How To Setup Your Own Computer" link at the top of the page. There is a new GitHub repo to clone which contains the path_trace.py file. Also, we don't expect you to be able to write the entire path_trace.py program by yourself at this point. Instead, you should reference that file while reading through the lab's explanation of some of the functions so you can see (and hopefully understand) how the program works and what sorts of information are being pulled from the API when you execute the program. You can also try using Postman to make the same API requests and get the same data that you're getting though Python.
			** Note that if you want to see what the GUI interface for Cisco DNA Center looks like you can go to https://sandboxdnac2.cisco.com and sign in with the username devnet and password Cisco123!
