Being restricted from using one particular method to solve a problem (no ip
ospf network statements, no distribute-lists, minimum number of
configuration commands, etc) which means you need to know multiple ways to
solve the same problem.
Seemingly ambiguous directions that aren't necessarily clarified by the
proctor because you should be able to interpret what they're asking for if
you know the technology.
Following the direction *incompletely* and missing some part of the detail.
Testing your configuration by reloading the routers to see if your config
stands up after restart.
Overlooking erroneous route sources (just looking at the routing table) and
not catching that the source of the route is wrong.
(Somewhere in the vast stretches of my very small mind, I vaguely remember
doing this before - call it deja vu - a search of the archives is in order)
