Thanks, Larry. That is pretty much what I use today (thanks to the Brians). The question still remains about manuevering through the docCD in the real lab.

Subject: Re: Manuvering in the DocCD

Here's my secret step-by-step :)

1. Open up univercd homepage and navigate to 12.3 (I sometime do 12.2 as well).
2. Copy the URL starting from www and up to ios123 (122 for that matter).
3. Then Google it. If you specific enough, it usually appears as one of the top 10 search result. This is a much better way to search than Cisco's search engine. Here's an example:

site:www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123 ip traffic-export

4. Go through the links. Then, click on "Contents" to go up a level in Documentations. Go up another level if necessary.

Note: I don't walk around memorizing how to configure NTP or 802.1x authentication. Just copy and paste from docCD if possible. Of cause, one has to understand why and when to paste certain required commands.

HTH,
Larry

        This may be a simple question, but one that keeps catching me off-guard.
        I usually don't have an issue in the docCDs in going between the Command
        and Configuration Reference Guides. However, I had a lab where I was
        looking for the "ip traffic-export" features/configuration. Normally, I
        would look in the Command Reference guide and do a search for the
        command (along with finding the reference, SR-702). So, I know that
        this is in the Security Configuration Guide and go directly there to
        find the chapter that may have what I am looking to find. However, this
        is not really clear to what chapter/subchapter this specific option is
        located in (without going through the time-consuming exercise of search
        and find through each section...and the security section could take
        awhile).
        
        Does anyone have any quick ideas/ways to find those esoteric items in
        the Configuration Guide? Also, does that last number "702" hold the key
        here? What does that reference, or, it is some type of cross-reference?
        Any ideas or thoughts on this would be appreciated. This may help us
        all, since we all can get a fair number of points on the lab, where
        those items need to be searched and located quickly.
