Hi,
Please can anybody offer their advice as to what you would do in this
particular lab situation?
On the front page of the practice lab it clearly says "Upon completion, all
devices should have full IP reachability to all networks in the routing
domain, including any networks generated by the backbone routers"
However when going through the lab document and carrying out the various tasks
I'd been given I came to a point where I had to setup bgp peering sessions
between two of my three internal routers that were running bgp and two of the
backbone routers, after doing this I'd received a few networks from the
backbone on each router so no problem there, but at that point the lab went on
to multicast.
So I'm confused about, if I'm told every router on my internal network should
be able to see eachother plus the networks generated by the backbone routers
but then due to the lab tasks given only two of my routers can actually see
any networks from the backbone and I'm not told to do anything further, what
would anybody recommend doing in this situation if faced in the lab exam?
As per the lab guidelines I wasn't allowed to create any static routes, do any
policy routing, change or add IP Addresses so I redistributed between bgp and
the igp running on my internal routers, would I be marked down or lose points
for adding in redistribution that I'm not told to do?
Any help or advice you can give for this situation would be great, thank you
Also if anyone from IE is reading this post and happens to be grading my
lab...I'm so sorry. I reached the decision to do redistribution within the
last minute of the lab and after setting it up quickly between bgp and ospf on
one of the routers then quickly copying and pasting the commands to the second
router...time runs out...damn!this router is running RIP not OSPF!....you'll
see what I mean when you get to R6...:o)
I'm not intentionally stupid, the medication wears off quickly thats all :o)
