Lab — Network
Pack ZTNA, SASE, VPN comparison, and microseg cross-link — network pillar file from $ZT_LAB.
Visual · t40_network_lab
Lab: network pillar pack. $ZT_LAB only. Original Cyberlium.
Network pack merges ZTNA/SASE literacy with M5 microseg diagram — north-south and east-west on one LAB-ZT-001 page.
Merge M5 microseg-pack with M6 ZTNA, SASE, VPN comparison into network-pillar-pack.md. Combined diagram: remote user → ZTNA → app; internal east-west segments behind connector. No VPN bypass, unauthorized broker config on production, or attack tools. Next: Quiz — Network ZTNA/SASE.
1. Lab contract: network pillar pack
network-pillar-pack.md: microseg cross-link + ZTNA card + SASE map + VPN comparison + combined diagram.

Primary tools to practice this lesson: grep, curl. Reference sites: NIST SP 800-207 (https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-207/final); CISA ZTMM Networks (https://www.cisa.gov/zero-trust-maturity-model). Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Cross-check
Remove VPN bypass, broker API keys, employer VPN configs, real public IPs.
Fictional example.zt.local apps only.
3. Lock
chmod 600. Quiz next — Data Classification.
Network pack feeds data/app boundary in M7.
4. What you ship: network pillar pack
Merged network artifacts in LAB-ZT-001/network/. $ZT_LAB. chmod 600.
5. What you record before the next lesson
Date. Network pack path. $ZT_LAB named. File t40-m06-l04-network-lab.txt chmod 600.
6. Wrong vs right: bypass cookbooks vs YOUR ZT design
Worked failure — same MSF word, opposite target. Right never needs a café Wi-Fi or classmate laptop.
- Wrong: Include VPN credential brute-force appendix. Paste employer Zscaler export.
- Right: Write network pillar pack for $ZT_LAB. Next: Quiz — Network ZTNA/SASE.
Mission: network pillar pack
1) Merge M5 microseg + M6 ZTNA/SASE sections. 2) Combined north-south + east-west diagram. 3) Ethics cross-refs. 4) chmod 600.
