Hi,

Thanks to those who had congratulate me privately or posted on the GS.

3 lab attempts in total - 12.2, 12.2T & 12.2T + IPv6. I really learnt a lot
during this journey in which I feel is still the most important aspect in
achieving this certification.

To cut things short, I won't type out my history. But I still want to thank
everyone in GS for making this study group alive & also Internetwork Expert
for their Vol 1 & 2 workbooks. They were great!

I've seen a couple of emails recently about the lab and wish to voice out my

opinion.

Lab wording - Personally, I find the lab wording is ok. This is the way how
customers ask questions.

Lab grading - If you fail, write down your questions & answers and figure
out what you went wrong. You will most likely find something wrong with your

configurations. I did that and I realized why I didn't get the marks.

Some tips:
Know the "why" way of doing things rather than the "how". I changed my
approach to this after my 2nd attempt. Took me 11 months before I took the
lab again =) Of course, you can still pass with just the "how" way of doing
things. It is your preference.

It also helps to get a couple of routers, maybe around 3 to mess around with

some stuff. Don't just rely on rack time alone!!! I have my own rack to play

with so equipment is not a problem.

Hope the above is helpful to those who are studying for the lab.

Regards,
Kian Wah

Thanks.
