The docs are pretty good if you have any questions ... there are also config
examples for most of the sections. I do not think you need to download the
pdfs .... just have a general idea of where things are. You can then search
the index or command reference for each section. This should help you find
what you are looking for IMO ...

Also since most vendors lab work books are written for the older commands,
you may wish to spend some time browsing the newer documentation just to be
sure you know where to find it quickly.

HTH,

Andrew

Hmm so one of the first things I will be doing (if I ever get to the lab) is
to look at the IOS versions and then make sure I am looking at the correct
configuration guide! I wonder if you are able to download the PDF in the
lab? I doubt it since it would be too easy to search through it.

LOL, the other day I was configuring dot1x on a 3560 running 12.2(55)SE1 and
was shocked to find this!!

DS3560-1BB-1(config-if)#dot1x ?
 credentials Credentials profile configuration
 default Configure Dot1x with default values for this port
 max-reauth-req Max No. of Reauthentication Attempts
 max-req Max No. of Retries
 max-start Max No. of EAPOL-Start requests
 pae Set 802.1x interface pae type
 supplicant Configure supplicant parameters
 timeout Various Timeouts

DS3560-1BB-1(config-if)#dot1x pa
DS3560-1BB-1(config-if)#dot1x pae ?
 authenticator Set pae type as Authenticator
 both Set pae type as both Supplicant and Authenticator
 supplicant Set pae type as Supplicant

Of course like Aaron stated the old commands work, they just don't show up
in help
