If you use 'no synchronization' in your BGP config's you will not get the
marks.

Subject: RE: Loosing marks for extra commands
I'm dying to know too, because there are some things I do as a matter of
habit that may or may not be needed in some situations, but they save time
by freeing me up to concentrate on other things. some examples:
using frame maps for for everything and not depending on inverse-arp.
turning off auto-summary on routing protocols (i'll tell you when to
summarize!! hehe)
unless a specific requirement I usually turn off synchronization for BGP.
if the practice scenario gives me some wiggle room on statics (like only
specifying that I can't create a default route) I create null routes for
summary addresses.
I can do without these things, but it really speeds setup and
troubleshooting because I've eliminated some problematic features up front.
Of course I'm also the Ethernet Nazi at work and I will turn off any port
that has an unlabled cable, no port description, or is set to autonegotiate.
Better for it to not work at all than to have people coming to me with crazy
problems all the time.

This may be a NDA violation but I read here on this group a few weeks ago
that you can loose marks for using extra unnessesary commands that were not
needed. I dont know if this is true or not can anyone shed some light on
this statement.
For example I like to remove any chance of frame relay inverse arp working
so I use the no frame-relay inverse-arp command and then do frame maps from
my hub router to all my spokes and then my spokes to my hub and then to the
spokes. Would this be considered extra commands? is this something the
proctor could answer on the day if its an NDA issue?
Anyone able to help? Please dont shoot yourself in the foot if it is and NDA
issue just dont answer.
Shaun
