for what reason this lab is good for
Good question! Cisco routers can be used as Terminal Servers. For example if you buy the "Cisco NM16-A" module you can connect console cables from your Cisco routers to your other routers, switches and firewalls.
You can telnet into your Cisco Terminal Server and then connect to the console ports of all your other network devices. Instead of typing in the commands you can use a nice menu like this to connect to the different devices.
Great Lab Rene. You are doing a wonderful job.
