Summary

VITELS (Virtual Internet and Telecommunications Laboratory of Switzerland) proposes a learning environment where real simulated, emulated and real laboratory experiments can take place via the Internet. Each VITELS project partner - four universities (Bern, Fribourg, Neuchâtel, Tübingen) have developed modules in the field of computer sciences and telecommunications based on the own competences and laboratory equipment.

The development of the course by different partners allows using the different available resources and the sophisticated technological knowledge and experience available at the various partner organizations.

Today VITELS offers the following modules: Simulation if IP Network Configuration, Client/Server Concepts, IP Security, Firewall Management, Sockets and RPC, Remote Method Invocation, Application Server, Security and Privacy in the Internet, Wireless LAN.

VITELS is using the Swiss-wide authentication and authorization infrastructure supported by SWITCH.
