Hello,
Looks like you are correct in that you would need to allow the icmp
traffic back through in order to get the ping to work. I will have to
relab this up again, and test the pings. I originally got this to work
because I saw that my BGP was working after the reflexive acl, but did
not test the ping. Also please post this error on my forum. Also I know
your exam is coming up here are some tips to review before your exam,
and for everyone else on this forum:
>TEN TIPS FOR TAKING THE LAB EXAM

Read the entire exam first and check for addressing issues. Do not skip
any details or sections.

Manage your time. Make a plan to cover all the sections in the time
provided. Work out how much time you will spend on each section, keeping
in mind the point value of the questions. Don't forget to allow time at
the end to verify your solutions.

Clarify the requirements of each question. Don't assume requirements
that aren't mentioned in the question. During the lab, if you are in any
doubt, verify your understanding of the question with the proctor.

Do each question as a unit. Configure and verify before moving to the
next question. You may want to redraw the topology with all the details
available. This will help you visualize and map the network.

Troubleshoot. You must know how to troubleshoot using the tools
available. Although troubleshooting is important, don't lose too much
time working on a 2- or 3-point question. If you're caught off-guard by
an unfamiliar topic, don't stress too much over it. Work on the things
you are more comfortable with and go back to difficult items later.

Keep a list. During the exam, make notes on configurations and settings
as you move through the exam. Make a separate list for items you have
not been able to address or where you have not achieved the desired
result which you'll need to revisit.

Test your work. Never rely on a configuration done in the early hours of
the exam. There is a possibility that an item you configured a few
sections earlier can become broken and non-functional. Keep in mind that
points are awarded for working configuration only.

Save your configurations often.

Don't make any drastic changes in the last half hour of the exam.

Speed is vital on the exam. Review and practice core material the week
before the exam to ensure you can move quickly through the less
challenging questions.

Again I wish you the best of luck.

Hello John,

Thank you for your clarification:

Yes, it does work ...Actually Interestingly BOTH the solutions work
except
for a minor adjustment that is needed in BOTH for pings to work !!

In my solution, I had to permit icmp any any on the inbound acl....

And in the solution proposed by the authors, I had to permit icmp any
any
reflect TCP_Traffic on the inbound acl.........

Ok!! Have I had enough of this stuff or what???

Bewildered !!

:-(

R2#sh access-lists
Reflexive IP access list REFLECT
     permit tcp host 172.16.0.2 eq bgp host 172.16.0.3 eq 11002 (time
left

     permit udp host 224.0.0.9 eq rip host 10.10.1.1 eq rip (time left
66)
Extended IP access list inbound
    10 permit tcp any any eq bgp (12 matches)
    20 permit tcp any eq bgp any
    30 permit icmp any any (30 matches)

    50 deny ip any any (12 matches)
Extended IP access list outbound
    10 permit tcp any any reflect REFLECT
    20 permit icmp any any reflect REFLECT
    30 permit udp any any reflect REFLECT
