The short answer is that this is an @#$@'ing ridiculous scenario that is a
complete waste of your time. If Cisco wants to test on it, then shame on
them for forcing you to study such a moronic topic. There is nothing
anywhere near a practical requirement for such a topology and
synchronization is years more outdated than many of the already deprecated
items that have found space on the CCIE lab.
