Hi again,
During my lab I wrote the config every now and then,
just in case, and every few tasks, maybe after any
major task or page I would reload ALL the routers and
switches. As I said before I had plenty of time at the
end even doing so.
By the way, I am not saying that the CCO CD didnt work
at all...it would just not worked quite a few times
and it was so frustrating that most of us stopped
trying to use it (for what I heard after the lab). But
remember: Do not go to the exam relying on the CD
mainly for your tasks.
Regards,
Fernando
