cisco has made no secret that the switch from two-day to one-day format
includes the dropping of a lot of housekeeping chores, including:
physical cabling, console-setup, addressing, etc. nor do they make a
secret of what materials they allow you (i.e. univercd, paper, pens,
etc).

NDA applies to the content of the labs. i havn't 'discussed what was
part of the exam'. this is indeed a matter of opinion, and you're
welcome to leave it.
