One of the amazing things about the CCIE Lab Exam is the fact that
Scott Morris and I can each pass the exact same Lab Exam, but each of
us can do so taking almost a completely different strategy.
For example, one might read the entire lab before beginning and create
a master diagram, while the other might start configuration on Task
1.1 without any prep whatsoever.
You need to find the strategy that works for you and stick with it!
For those without ideas toward the strategy that might work for them,
they need to contact their favorite vendor on this forum.
