I like what Harold has stated below; I don't know which is which (true lab questions). I find the group questions & solutions , interesting & enlightening to my preparation towards CCIE Lab;
We're here to learn from each other; this is also why cisco CD is there for us (Cisco TAC in the realworld)..... not that everything has to be learned from experience before attempting the CCIE lab certification.
thanks!

Subject: RE: STOP ASKING LAB QUESTIONS
Question: How does someone who hasn't taken the lab recently recognize a "lab question"?
Really, you're more guilty of an NDA vioalation than the person who asked the offending question is. Courtesy of your little rant, I now know that within the last 50 or so posts there is a question that was on somebody's lab. Before your rant, I would have just dismissed it as a regular question. In fact, I hadn't even been reading any posts on the list today and I just happened to notice yours (possibly because of the title in ALL CAPS).
I don't know what the position of the moderators is on this, but it seems like the best thing to do if you see someone posting questions from a lab you took is to ignore it, or take it up with the person privately. Posting to the list removes any doubt.
One other thing - there is no stipulation in the NDA (to my knowledge) that says a candidate can't ask how to do a task on his or her lab, so long as he/she doesn't say "This was on my lab." I think if you change the question to involve different IP addresses and/or a different topology but still ask a question on the same topology, you're in the clear. Apply the pinciple ad nauseam: My lab (may have) required me to redistribute OSPF into RIP. Am I not allowed to ask the list how to do that?
