Mohammed,
I believe the proctor was hinting to you that there was a problem with the ACS server as a known problem in the lab. Try to think of all the reasons that it would have not responded to requests even though you could ping it. Regards, Tyson Scott - CCIE #13513 R&S and Security Technical Instructor - IPexpert, Inc.

Hello, I am asking this because in my previous attempt, there were two strange incidents. 1- One of the routers was not configured with the default password and I was not able to log in, so I went to the proctor and he fixed the issue. According to the proctor, It never happened before and my incident was the first one. I don't remember what he told me exactly, but I think he mentioned something was wrong with the initial configuration. 2- ACS server was not working as it should be and I had 4 questions that required AAA. The funny thing is AAA was not working on 3 devices (a router, asa, and a switch) and I tried both Radius and Tacacs. I was able to ping the ACS server from these devices and telnet to port 49. There was nothing to block communication between the ACS server and the switch becuase they were on the same vlan. I was getting this message " No Authorative Response ..." when I did "test aaa group radius ...." and all the 3 devices were added as clients in the ACS server. I went to the proctor and told him there is a problem with the ACS server and he told me "you have to figure out the solution". Do you think the ACS was also not configured properly (like incident 1)? or was I doing something wrong? Should I contact Cisco for a refund? Did you guys face anything like this before?
