In order to e we should set up an independent network other than taking advantage of the existing network, for example, the campus network. If the lab server is connected to the campus network, we should add a network card or a USB WIFI dongle for TekSmartLab network. Thus the server is working simultaneously with the TekSmartLab network and the campus network.
