You may have run into what I like to call a "lab pitfall". This is a
task that has multiple solutions but only one is truly the correct
solution. These tasks "trick" you into configuring an incorrect solution
due to the wording of the task. Just because you have full connectivity
doesn't mean you fulfilled all the requirements of the task.
I like putting these "lab pitfalls" in my CCIE prep class because it
really opens student's eyes as to what they can expect in the real CCIE
lab.

Subject: Interfaces are all pingable
Hi Everyone,
I have just failed my 2nd lab attempt.
I was just wondering if anyone has had the frustrating experience of
having all the interfaces pingable in the lab exam and only getting 50%
of the credit for the IGP protocols section.
I finished the lab an hour early, checked my work to ensure that all
interfaces are reachable including the loopbacks (that was the lab
requirement ).
It is really frustrating and discouraging to find out that you failed
after you made thorough checks amd you were so sure you would pass
because you got everything working.
I must be missing out on something, perhaps I did not answer the
questions in the manner Cisco expected me to ? It is so frustating not
to know what I did incorrectly. The questions were sometimes seems vague
and the proctor does not necessarily want to make it clearer.
Is there anyone out there that shares the same experiences and
sentiments ?
Regards,
Paul
