Thank you guys for your suggestions but I can't tell you because I
don't want to break the NDA.
As I said before, I am not looking for an answer.
I just wanted to see if it is possible for someone to get a non
working lab (lab with bugs or errors). Apparently, I was wrong in my
assumption and definitely Cisco will not release labs without
testing and verifying them.
I just needed to do more troubleshooting.

Could there have been NAT between your devices and the ACS server?
With this, ping, telnet etc would work.. but your devices would
still not talk to the server if they were configured with their
actual (rather than NAT'd) IP addresses?

Tyson,
Thanks for your reply.
That's what I though because I don't think cisco will make a lot of
mistakes with the initial config.
My email sounds and reads like I am asking for an answer. I was only
looking for a confirmation , not an answer.
I don't want to break the NDA so Please don't respond to my email
and ignore it. I will try to figure out the solution from google or
cisco doc cd.
I still have a lot to learn, but I am happy because I am learning
new things everyday.

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.

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?
Thanks for your help
