The ccie lab is graded on results. (i.e. route tables, neighbor
relationships, etc.)

Because there is about 15 different ways to accomplish any one task, it is
best to just configure the most simple method you know how to satisfy the
requirement without violating any restrictions. That is the trick. Without
violating any restrictions.

As long as you satisfy the lab requirements without violating any of the
restrictions, you will do well.

Keep it simple. You do not get extra credit for creativity.

Subject: CCIE score criteria

All,

Last week I had an unfortunate score of my Lab examination and I was
wondering how the Proctors evaluate our answers (or at least an idea).

The Exam is quite clear about what is needed to accomplish each task, but as
far as I know, each one can be done in our way (if there are some).
I was thinking about some questions:

- that BGP session they requested, I've used some commands for ALL routers,
like "no bgp default route-target filter, no bgp def ipv4 unicast," is this
forbidden?
- the peers I created had: "send-community (for ipv4), next-hop-self (for
ALL eBGP)" is this considered an error?

I could see some instructions clear, like: "no other router should have
VPNV4 session against ASxx but R7", where it shows precisely what is allowed
and what is not, but those "best practice commands" (at my point of view)
shouldn't be disallowed, or should they be?

Well, if someone have some tips related to this and to "what should I be
worried in my next (and please Lord LAST) attempt, e-mail me.

Thanks a lot!

Alexandre.
