Yeah - that does sound strange. Obviously I do not have access to the full
wording of the task, but from an actual CCIE Lab perspective, this might
be a great Ask the Proctor moment.

You certainly do not want to lose FULL points because the question was so
vague that you applied the tool in the wrong direction!

When you go to the proctor, be sure to fully explain your reasoning for
picking a direction, and then gently explain how their directions do not
help you. Try not to beat up the task wording too much to them, you might
be speaking to the individual that wrote the task!

Subject:QOS lab confusion

All,
I'm working on one of the ipexpert labs dealing with QOS conversion. Two
different times they ask you to limit the "transmission speed" from any port
in a particular VLAN. Their solution is to set up a policy-map that will
police the traffic. Then, they apply the policy to the ports in the
"inbound" direction.

                    "service-policy input .."

If asked to limit the transmission speed I would think you would want to
limit the traffic leaving the port, in the output direction.?.? What am I
missing here???

Thanks,

Bryan
