| -Each exercise will ask you to **configure** F5 Distributed Cloud ("XC") objects to reinforce core XC Multi-Cloud Networking ("MCN") concepts. |
8 |
| -Once configured, you'll be asked to **test** your configuration using this web application. |

| -When your UDF deployment launched, two automated processes started - Customer Edge ("CE") registration and account provisioning in the [lab tenant](https://f5-xc-lab-mcn.console.ves.volterra.io/). |
| 15 | +The lab environment contains three distributed sites meshed using the F5 Distributed Cloud Global Network. |

| -The CE in your UDF deployment is being registered with the [lab tenant](https://f5-xc-lab-mcn.console.ves.volterra.io/). |
22 |
| -CEs on first launch update software and, often, their OS. This can be very time consuming. |
23 |
| -This process will take 15-20 min from when the CE is booted. |
24 |
| -You can still get started on some preliminary tasks while waiting. |

| 40 | +An instance of the [cloud app](https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5xc-lab-mcn-practical/tree/main/cloudapp) is hosted in each cloud site. |
| 41 | +The [cloud app](https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5xc-lab-mcn-practical/tree/main/cloudapp) is a simple application that echoes back an HTTP request. |
| 42 | +Remember while working through the lab, unless otherwise noted, the tests are displaying the headers and info **from the request received by the app**. |

| -## **Account Provisioning** |
33 | 44 |
|
34 |
| -Check the email used to launch your UDF deployment for a "welcome" or password reset email to the [lab tenant](https://f5-xc-lab-mcn.console.ves.volterra.io/). |
35 |
| -Update your password and log into the tenant. |
