Hello.
I found a server at a very affordable price to buy, I would like to know if it is possible to use it for my preparation for CCIE, I know that the settings are not the best, but the only objective of this server will be to use it with eve-ng , aiming at preparing for the CCIE.
These are the server settings:

Yes, the intention is CCIE Enterprive, and eventually play with some firewalls.
