If extra help is needed more documentation is at: [link](https://paul-gleason.gitbook.io/sec-480-adv-topics-in-cyber-security-devops/labs/milestone-1)

### ESXi Setup

1. Plugged into network (got ipmi network)
2. Went to web gui ({DHCP})
   1. Logged in
      * Username: cncs-sysadmin

Make sure to add 350-Internal to the new virtual switch

## Base Setups for VMs

### PF-Sense

#### Settings: (Make sure to thin provision)

Once in PF-Sense Assign Interfaces to proper adapters and then set the interface IPs

### Xubuntu-MGMT

#### Making the VM:

Follow the install it's very straight forward you get one page you must fill out the correct information.

#### Setup Networking:

## Reflection

This lab was extremely straight forward as I have done it in 480 before. I didn't have any trouble except for remembering how to use PF-Sense. For some reason I always get enjoyment about deploying ESXI there is just something about building a network from the ground up that is very satisfying.
