sandbox-iosxe-recomm-1.cisco.com issue

[OsamaAbbas]

The Always-On sandbox-iosxe-recomm-1.cisco.com sandbox is not working for the fourth day in a row for me. I can barely connect. And if logged-in using the provided username/password (developer/C1sco12345), I am asked to enter an enable password which is not provided on the sandbox page! I also noticed a weird banner

!Solo Personal Autorizado!

Bienvenidos a la sede de sandbox-iosxe-recomm-1.cisco.com

and the hostname (device prompt) is not what I usually see from Cisco (vonbading>)

What is wrong with the sandbox? It used to work fine.

@OsamaAbbas looks like the sandbox has been the subject of some unauthorised changed, I asked the ENG team to take a look. In the meantime you can use https://devnetsandbox.cisco.com/RM/Diagram/Index/7b4d4209-a17c-4bc3-9b38-f15184e53a94?diagramType=Topology

Hope this helps.
