The labs aren't always well written, clear and/or consise, and there is often
more than one way to resolve an issue while staying within the criteria
presented in the problem. The proctor needs to be able to understand the how's
and why's and clarify issues presented in the lab (without giving the answer
away). What you configure may not be exactly what the test writer had in mind
when the lab was written, but if you can explain it to a proctor who
understands what's going on with the technology, you might get credit for it.
