You have to be concerned with failure conditions from the standpoint of how
they affect what you are trying to do. :) Always remember that in the lab
(similar to real life) one thing may build upon another. I believe that
there's a statement on the first page talking about how all routers must
reach all other routers unless explicitly stated within the exercises.

It is my understanding that in the CCIE lab you do not have to be concerned
with failure conditions. You just have to achieve connectivity and maintain
it throughout subsequent exercises.

Am I correct?
