Unable to Launch ACI Simulator 6.0 after connecting to the VPN

[rackaraaron]

Dear All,

First off, forgive me if this post is a repetition of any previous post as my checks did not land me in any similar record. 

I would like to get my hands dirty with the ACI and decided to use the ACI simulator 6.0 from devnet sandbox. 

Unfortunately, I have not been able to launch the simulator.
I am stuck after connecting to the cisco secure client. 

My understanding is that I should connect to the devbox and then access the simulator.
When I put the address 10.10.20.50 on the browser, I get an error that page can't load. However, I am able to ssh and rdp to the same address. 

Because of this issue, my reservation has not been used and I will tear it down after this post. 

I tried to lookup at the post below:

https://community.cisco.com/t5/devnet-sandbox/unable-to-launch-new-aci-sandbox-as-old-one-stuck-terminating/td-p/5007954

But they were not able to solve my issue. 

First @bigevilbeard @Alexander Stevenson and anyone in the community please assist to identify what I need to correct in order to get started with the labs past vpn connection. 

Thank you in advance.

hello. you can access the aci simulator directly from your laptop once you have vpned into the lab. using a browser you can point to the following ip address: https://10.10.20.14 this is the url to the apic simulator.

You can also access it from within the rdp connection of the devbox using the above method too.

Hi @ecorban , 

I had tried those access procedures before posting it here.
The address https://10.10.20.14 was not opening, I think I just forgot to take a screenshot from both my computer and also on the rdp for devbox.

What I will do is try to reserve it again and check one more time and update this thread. 
Thanks.

Hi @ecorban,

Just to close this thread, I had the following day and the simulator was able to open easily. I have been using it since then and there is no issue. 
Thanks all for your support.

Look like @ecorban has already saved the day. As far as I know there is only ssh/rep to the devbox no http access. As Eddie noted (and I don’t know this lab/sbx that well. Web access and api is via
