• Configurable Internet access for the labs

What's new

Configurable Internet access for the labs

Now lab authors can select one of the two preconfigured virtual networks for their lab virtual machines:

• public — learners working with virtual machines in this network can access the Internet from the VM
• secure — learners working with virtual machines in this network cannot access the Internet from the VM

These networks are applied to the lab environments and can be configured on the Environments page.

With the new network configuration options, lab authors can configure more secure virtual environments for their labs. This way, authors allow or restrict Internet access according to their scenarios, and minimize possible effects of malicious code execution in the labs.

Fixed issues

• Translations for Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese can now be applied simultaneously and selected within the same lab.
