Lab 1: Webtop Links
====================
A full webtop provides an access policy ending for an access policy branch to which you can optionally assign portal access resources, app tunnels, remote desktops, and webtop links, in addition to network access tunnels.

In this lab you will explore how to create a Webtop Link resource that will enable an administrator to add bookmarks to commonly used Webpages that do not require rewriting.  Webtop links point to external sites or even other sites hosted and protected by BIG-IP APM Virtual Servers.



Task 1 - Setup Lab Environment
-----------------------------------

To access your dedicated student lab environment, you will require a web browser and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) client software. The web browser will be used to access the Lab Training Portal. The RDP client will be used to connect to the Jump Host, where you will be able to access the BIG-IP management interfaces (HTTPS, SSH).

#. Click **DEPLOYMENT** located on the top left corner to display the environment

#. Click **ACCESS** next to jumpohost.f5lab.local

   |image001|

#. Select your RDP resolution.

#. The RDP client on your local host establishes a RDP connection to the Jump Host.

#. Login with the following credentials:

         - User: **f5lab\\user1**
         - Password: **user1**

#. After successful logon the Chrome browser will auto launch opening the site https://portal.f5lab.local.  This process usually takes 30 seconds after logon.

#. Click the **Classes** tab at the top of the page.

If you experience errors try running the automation a second time or open an issue on the `Access Labs Repo <https://github.com/f5devcentral/access-labs>`__.
