Purpose

Your training pack

Before you start this training course, ensure you have received lab details from your Delinea trainer. The Secret Server lab consists of the following machines:

Machine Name Internal Lab Name Internal IP Description
DC1 DC1 172.31.32.10 Domain Controller - contains all AD configuration used within the lab
SSPM SSPM 172.31.32.114 This machine will be used to install and host Secret Server

CENTOS CENTOS 172.31.32.121 CentOS machine, used to test a range fo Secret Server functionalities during the training course

You will need to initiate a remote desktop connection to the PUBLIC IP address of the Win machine. This IP address is dynamic and will change whenever the lab environment is restarted. The Win server machine serves as a jump box from which you can then RDP to the other windows machines by hostname. Lab Exercise 1 explains the process of identifying the IP address of your lab jump box and connecting to it.
