Re: CCIE Troubleshooting Rules

Not sure if I would reload the routers and backup the config. I didn't in
my exam. You have 2 hours and 11 tickets. This means avarage 10min per
ticket. Reloading and backup the config a set of routers will take out lots
of time which you could spend in troubleshooting the dificult tickets.
During my exam I had the following appoach:

1. Troubleshoot the issue with show commands
2. If still the problem is not solved I would go for debug
3. fix the configuration issue
4. Verify the issue is solved
5. Go to the next ticket
6. If finished before the 2 hour I would spend the time verifying the fixes
of the tickets again.

Kind regards,
