Valiant effort. Robert, don't feel bad. It really is hard...

I went to my lab to figure why I failed attempt #2.

I did verification over a weekend (not over a diet coke and a trip to the
bathroom)

Slick test.

What workbook did you use?

What was your mock lab regimen?

Tell me you got the "secret service" points as I call them- which lie "in
post" guarding the number, on the doc CD, LOL!

Subject: Failed at first try.

Just back from Brussel for my non-successfull first try at R&S.
After 9 months preparing for the lab I couldn't wait to give it a shot.
The night before I only slept for 3 hours, I was to excited to start.
I stayed at the Sofitel Hotel and I must say a great one. A bit on the price
but great beds and food and 15 min walk from cisco.

At lunch I had full IP and had started at BGP but got stock on that, after
lunch I skipped the BGP and started on the other subjects, at 15:00 I was
done only left 5 items over that I had to check. First I checked the
configs, around 16:00 and found three errors, I tried to fix the last 5
items but I could only fix 1 of the 4. My head was not working at 100%
anymore at that time. So I was happy that I fixed 1 of the 5 at that time.

So I counted my sure points and got to 92, I was the first to leave the room
and got back to the hotel, didn't wanna drive back to home the same night.
Around 6 in the morning the mail arrived and said FAILED. Of the 92 points
sure only 65 stayed, so in the end I wasn't even close to it.

There were two sections I counted for sure but got 0% BGP and multicast,
multicast I thought had every thing UP, in BGP I had around 75% sure.

Booked just a new date for march 2008, so the next few days I will make a
new study schedule and order some new books.

Robert.
