Try the NetStacks Controller
A self-service sandbox with a real Controller, a simulated ten-device Cisco IOS-XE network and a fault waiting to be found. Sign up, get a magic link, and you are in a browser terminal in under a minute.
The full Controller, on a network you can break
Every tenant is provisioned with the same lab so you can follow the walkthrough or ignore it entirely.
Browser terminal to 10 IOS-XE devices
A small enterprise network — core, distribution, access and edge — running simulated Cisco IOS-XE. Open sessions from the browser, no VPN, no install, credentials proxied by the Controller.
AI troubleshooting with a staged BGP fault
One of the edge peers is already broken. Ask the assistant why, watch it read the same terminal you do, and let it walk you to the root cause and the fix.
Topology
The network is pre-discovered via LLDP and SNMP. Explore the 2D and 3D maps, jump from a node straight into a session, and see the fault reflected on the map.
Knowledge base and MOPs
A seeded runbook library the AI draws on, plus ready-made Methods of Procedure with pre-checks, change steps, post-checks and rollback you can execute against the lab.
Alerts and incidents
Alerts from the lab are ingested, deduplicated and shown next to incidents in the terminal, so you can see the alert pipeline end to end.
Three steps, no install
Sign up
Name, work email and company. That is all we ask for — no card, no sales call.
Open the magic link
We email you a one-time link. Clicking it provisions an isolated tenant with its own network and logs you in.
Explore for 14 days
Break things, fix things, run MOPs. Come back as often as you like. The tenant is deleted automatically after 14 days.

Book a guided demo and we will walk through the Controller against your use case — RBAC, on-premises deployment, or the AI on your own runbooks.
