I have to agree with jl and others on this.
To complete the core portion of the lab, you shouldn't have to look up
anything on the doc-cd with the possible and rare exception of checking the
command reference to double check the syntax or command options for some
obscure things.
e.g. You have to manipulate the eigrp metrics. This is a case where it's a
good idea to double check the command reference to make sure you're using
the right k values.
Another example, you need to config BGP dampening. Here again, you might
want to double check the command reference because you might not be 100%
sure of the default values.
Notice that in both examples, you're not wasting time checking the doc-cd to
figure out which command to use for a core task or how to solve or approach
the task. If you're going to pass the lab, you already know that
thoroughly. Instead, you're only using the doc-cd to get the details about
a command you have used dozens of times before.
HTH, Tim

Agreed,
I think this is "pickup as you go along" knowledge, something that you learn
as part of the base technologies. I find that I usually save the DocCd for
the obsure items that I forget in the heat of the moment...and these usually
come well after I finish the core items. If you find yourself looking up the
basic things related to the core it may be time to take a review at your
study plan and plan accordingly...You dont need to be slowed down at the
beginning of the test looking for things to complete your core.
