Lab Scoreboard

You are provided access to a Docker machine and a private Docker registry.

You have to create a multi-container "app-server-memcached" setup where:

  • Both containers are on a newly created Docker network 
  • Docker image "appserver" contains an HTTP API to interact with the memcached running on port 80
  • Docker image "memcached-app" containers memcached service running on it on port 11211.
  • "appserver" container should be the first container on the network. 

Objective: Create the multi-container setup with manual method and docker-compose!

Technical Support for this Lab:

There is a reason we provide unlimited lab time: you can take as much time as you need to solve a lab. However, we realize that sometimes hints might be necessary to keep you motivated!

We currently provide technical support limited to:

  • Giving hints for a lab exercise
  • In rare circumstances, if you have totally given up (NO!!!) then tell you how to solve it. This will be limited to sharing the solution video or lab report
  • A lab exercise fails to load or has errors in it

If you need technical support, please email  attackdefense@pentesteracademy.com  clearly mention the name and link of the lab exercise and other essential details. The more descriptive you are, the faster we can help you. We will get back to you within 24 hours or less.
