While obviously it's hard to track things like that, I'd venture to say
there's nothing the proctor has to gain by doing things like that
mid-config. If they wanted to make you fail, they could just wait until the
end of the exam and change whatever they felt like changing.
While troubleshooting IS indeed part of the testing process, it's fairly
well spelled out. And from what I remember reading in Maurillio's
Ask-the-Expert Q&A session on NetPro, it was specifically mentioned about
the problems in startup configs and not ongoing changes introduced.
Depending on your process of configuration, (e.g. cut 'n' paste) I'd say
there's a myriad of possibilities to introduce errors like that all by
yourself without any outside intervention.
No offense to anyone who mentions this has happened to them, but it's just
not plausible. If the proctor had it out for you, in that they wanted you
to fail, there are so many other ways to do it without introducing the
potential of getting caught that this makes no sense.

Subject: Re: RE: RE : Attack by Proctor
Hello,
I also had the same problem. 30 minutes before the end of exam in BRUSSELS,
I noticed a couple of changes in the routers and switches. For example,
1. network statement (ip address ) under ospf got changed.
2. area 1 nssa kept in the other router though i configured in the right
router.
3. additional eigrp process was running in the router.
I am not sure whether these are part of exam troubleshooting or these are
introduced by the proctors intentionally to make the candidates to fail.
Could any one comment on this?.
thanks,
Joh
