Starting the Lab
----------------

In order to complete this lab, you will connect to environment using VS-Code on the Ubuntu server
called "client".  From VS-Code you will use all tools and interact with BIG-IPs for configuration.
There is also an instance of Firefox, which will be used to validate virtual server configurations.

**Exercise 1 - Connect to VS-Code**
