The general rule is that as long as you don't violate some other rule (like
don't run multicast on your frame-relay network, etc.), then
overconfiguration is ok. Watch for words "do not", "only" and things like
that which may help you answer your question. It's all about reading the
exam thoroughly and slowly to not miss anything.
Otherwise, overconfiguration isn't counted off.

Subject: Would you lose points for doing this?
Do you lose points on the CCIE lab for configuring things not specifically
asked for (but not specifically prohibited) on the lab?
Example 1:
Lets say the task requirement states to advertise a few specific networks
via EIGRP.
But there is one network that is not being advertised by any routing
protocol so you go ahead and advertise it via EIGRP in order to allow full
connectivity. Is that considered wrong?
Example 2:
The task requirement states to enable PIM on the following interfaces:
R1 e0/0
R1 s0/0
The task does not specifically state configure PIM on ONLY these interfaces,
nor does it state to not configure PIM on any other interfaces.
Lets say for whatever reason you enable PIM on R1 s0/1 in order to make the
multicast work. Would you lose points for this?
Basically I am wondering if there is an implicit "deny any" or an implicit
"don't do anything else" at the end of each task?
