This is the first draft of the ECSC CTF network topology planned for the European Cyber Security Challenge Final 2020 in Vienna. Every team has access to its own 16-port VLAN enabled switch. This will be placed on the team table, together with power supplies and RJ45 cables. Teams must take care of adapters and plugs. These will not be provided. Wireless is generally not supported and it is not allowed for the teams to setup their own WiFi access point. Being said, teams must use the provided RJ45 connections. A central VLAN enabled firewall is seperating the networks from the teams. Traffic from team to team is not supported. Insted, every team will get free access to the Internet, where both, the jeopardy CTF and attack/defense CTF will be hosted.
It would be lovely to have a team notification box on every team's desk. This notification box could be used to run visual (light) or audio (music) whenever the team gains or loses something important.
