Hi Jeff,

I have seen four R&S labs, and I can honestly say that I thought they
were all very well written. Cisco evidently puts a lot of time and
thought into them. When I saw something I thought was vague, I was able
to get it cleared up by the proctor - try that route before spending too
much time looking for a missing option. When presenting my question to
the proctor, I often got the answer that I was "thinking too hard". In
other words, the meaining is usually fairly straightforward.

and scenario. Now, I know a little Cisco-ese, enough to find the
freesnacks breakroom, but it seems like most "example" labs I've tried
contradict themselves. Like saying no static routes and then seeing a
static mroute in configuration answers, or defining Policy Routing as
any source-based traffic manipulation and then using tunneling to
overcome another restriction, or tip toeing around the ol' 0.0.0.0
advertisement restriction--justified because it was produced as a
side-affect of another method..... Anyway, that is probably my biggest
concern at this point, queueing in on the one or two tag words that are
supposed kick my brain into the right type of configuration. I don't
want to be sitting there digging through the CD (wasting prescious time)
looking for that 3rd way (that may or may not exist) because I believe
that it can't be done in the ways I know due to the interpretive
restrictions.
