i meant that i followed advice blindly, and at the end of the day
regretted it.
i sat down and read through everything (good idea) and then immediately
began my diagramming. then when my diagram was complete, i started
configuring.
the diagram sat there on my desk (untouched) for the remainder of the
lab. i never needed it again, as their diagrams had all the info i
needed. i got a good score (not a pass though). and i know i could have
used the 10-15 min diagramming to pick up another 3-5 points.
when i'm at home, i like having a nice diagram full of addresses,
color-coded with igp/egp info, etc. but this is a
time-consuming/point-consuming luxury in the real deal.
i know many people feel very strongly about diagramming, some even
religiously so. this is simply my experience and i wish i someone would
have given me this heads-up going in.
good luck!
