APM in VM Lab

Hi All,

 

Can I build a LAB for APM in VMware workstation and till what extent I can use features of APM in VM LAB?

 

If some has already built a lab for APM please share the topology and the resources used like except APM VM what other servers are required for LAB.

 

Thanks in advance!!

 

Thanks Ashish Solanki

  • Yes you can run your VM on Workstation. As for other servers, I used the f5 vlab LAMP server as a pool member for a test resource/ldap server/CA Authority.

     

    I also used VM's in the cloud platforms (trial versions on AWS, Azure, and GCP) to side step the licensing situation for Windows. I used Windows Servers to lab things I couldn't do on the f5 vlab LAMP server such as RDP/AD/Kerberos/NTLM integration with APM.

     

  • Thanks for the quick response. Can you please elaborate or share any link how to integrate AD server for authentication in LAB.
