Capacity

2B has a capacity of 56 lab PCs.

Imaging

This lab is imaged using our master machines and CloneZilla, as detailed in the Lab Imaging section.

AV

The AV in 2B needs to be checked before 9am every day.

There is an Extron controller by the lectern which can turn on/off the projector. This is one of the newer touch screen controllers and generally works with no issues.

More details on how to check the lab AV can be found in the Lab AV section.

PC Checks

All the PCs in this room also need checking before 9am, especially if there is an exam that day. You must turn them all on, either manually or via Deep Freeze, and ensure that they all boot and display the lock screen.

Unique Features

Cisco Networking Equipment

There are 4 racks at the back of 2B which contain Cisco equipment used for CCNA teaching. Each rack contains 2 switches, 2 routers, and a firewall. Model numbers and more specific details can be seen on snipe.

Additional Ethernet Patching

As well as the network ports which connect the Lab PCs to the university network, there is patching which connects extra network ports underneath the desks to patch panels in the network cabinets at the back of the room.

Additional PCs Under Desk

Alongside the lab PCs on the desk, there is another PC underneath the desk. The idea is that these PCs connect through the additional patching to the cabs at the back of the room to create an isolated network, but currently it doesn't get used.
