Hi Joe,

Great advice. What would you recommend for the task below:

1.10 TROUBLE TICKET 10
R1's routing table has a summary pointing to Null0. Modify R1 so that there
are no routes to Null0.

SG solution: Turn off auto-summary under EIGRP.

My solution: Announce summary with AD of 255 on Ethernet interface which
meant it is not installed locally with the ip summary address eigrp command.
If the task had said something like make sure that classless routing is used
or anything like that I would definitely have removed auto-summary. Maybe it
is a safe assumption that auto-summary should not be used unless a task
tells you to, guess that is one more for the proctor.

Also one of those tasks that could easily get misinterpreted.

Once again, thanks for your input.
