RE: memorizing commands

I think a great example of this is the command frame-relay interface-dlci that students will memorize. They either never learn why it is needed and when, or they forget. As a result, their configurations will start to be peppered with the command whether it is needed or not.

Donbt let this happen to you!

I think Narbik, as usual, nailed it.

If you really understand what's going on, "memorizing" commands will come naturally. If you just memorize the commands and have no idea what's *really* going on, passing CCIE will be very, very difficult.

Go with Narbik's advice - understand the technology, understand the equipment and then just make them do what YOU need them to do.
