The lab is crystal clear. You just need to read the tasks very very
carefully. Remember in Cisco's world and expert is both careful, and
knowledgeable!

Subject: Re: Question for IGP on R&S Lab
Hi Joe,
The lab workbook that I'm using sometimes does not explicitly tell me to
include the loopback interface or certain interfaces into which IGP, etc. In
the BGP section, nor does it tell me to advertise those earlier
"unspecified" subnets.
So it's at my discretion to include them in the appropriate IGP or
redistribute them into the IGPs, considering the constraints of all other
tasks.
Secondly, sometimes it also does not explicitly mention whether BGP peering
should use physical IP address or between loopbacks. For point-to-point
link, I'll peer using physical IP to keep things simple. For peers with
redundant paths between them (be it iBGP or eBGP), I'll peer using their
loopback IP.
Do you think you can tell me if the specs in the actual lab are this
unclear? Appreciate your advice.
Thank you.
B.Rgds,
Lim TS
