Hello Experts,
I took my first Cisco Assessor Lab this morning, and am pretty excited about
the results! It is a good eye-opener on how tasks are graded, and how points
are assigned.
I did have one issue with a solution regarding BGP and next-hop-self.
Instead of using this on a neighbor command, I just inserted a "set ip
next-hop peer-address" into the route-map which was needed for another task
(dealing with setting MED out to this same neighbor). The only constraint on
the task was to accomplish this by not re-configuring any other router.
My question is whether or not this would get marked wrong in the real lab
also...?
During my studying with vendor WBs, I would always assume if you get the
same results, the solution is ok. Now my eyes are opened to the fact that
scripts do not always check every answer!
I think I read/heard that if you are within a certain range of 80% (3 pts or
so), your lab gets manually checked... is that correct? If so, what happens
if there are 2 or 3 task solutions which the script does not account for,
and you get pushed out of this range. I assume you pay the re-grade if you
feel like you really did enough to pass!
A follow-up question to the group is to whether or not my answer, is indeed,
correct?
Here is the answer per the Assessor:
router bgp 1
*neighbor 100.1.65.6 next-hop-self
* no synchronization
bgp log-neighbor-changes
neighbor 100.1.1.1 remote-as 1
neighbor 100.1.1.1 update-source Loopback0
neighbor 100.1.65.6 remote-as 2
neighbor 100.1.65.6 route-map TO_R6 out
no auto-summary
!
!
!
route-map TO_R6 permit 10
set metric 500
!
Here is my answer:
router bgp 1
no synchronization
bgp log-neighbor-changes
neighbor 100.1.1.1 remote-as 1
neighbor 100.1.1.1 update-source Loopback0
neighbor 100.1.65.6 remote-as 2
neighbor 100.1.65.6 route-map TO_R6 out
no auto-summary
!
!
!
route-map TO_R6 permit 10
set metric 500
set ip next-hop peer-address
Any/all input is welcome!
Thanks,
Michael
