Ok,
Getting ready to go back again and pass this time, but now I find that
I am reading into the questions in some areas. maybe some of you that
have passed this great hurdle can shed some light on those of us that
feel that their brains are about to pop.
Lets say you are told to:
RIP
exchange updates only on links specified (between R2 and R3 and R4)
Now, you could do this with a passive interface and a no passive
interface on the interfaces that need to participate in the RIP updates,
you could also do this with neighbor commands, eliminating the broadcast
address in your rip updates.
Now, nothing said it HAD to be unicast, or to NOT use a unicast address,
but would it be wrong?
Same goes for EIGRP
Use a neighbor command or just specify a subnet mask at the end of the
network statement?
Frame Relay.
As a best practice, I pretty much always use the broadcast statement at
the end of a frame map ip command. But what about the local interface.
If it does not say that it must ping itself, should you do it any way?
Are they (the sadistic individuals that write and grade these tests from
Hades) going to look at your sh frame map commands and determine that
you should only have two map statements in your router and dock you for
having three (multipoint interface connected to two other routers via
map statements)?
Like I said, I am at the point to where I am reading into the questions
and guidelines (or lack there of). I know, ask the proctor, but it has
been my experience that the proctor doesn't always know what the end
result will be from the proctor out in Australia that is going to grade
my masterpiece. I know that to pass this you must know how to configure
everything about 5 different ways, I am at that point, but now I am just
concerned that one of the ways that I choose (even though it doesn't
effect the rest of the topology) may be incorrect.
Any incite, words of wisdom and just "this is what my buddy did"
comments are most welcome
