Thanks TacAck! Well, as I said, i am not that confident. I see this first attempt as a "bonus". My employer knows that I havent had enough time to be totally "ready" and it´s part of the deal. Of course that doesnt mean that I will not do what I can to pass! Of course! I can feel the adrenaline. But I now that if I see a task with NAC posture assesment using ACS I can just forget about it until if I find any spare time at the end. And if I do VPN with PKI I´ll just cross myfingers that It works at the first attempt because troubleshooting certificate validations is not within my comfort zone. But I go for the fact that I "only" need 80 points and try to be confident in what I know instead.
If I dont pass I will take 4 weeks of vacation with my family before starting my studies again and will probably do another quick attempt in september. When it comes to my "lab reading" I think it will take me like 45 minutes to do a topology drawing, make a list of tasks and read it all thru to get a good overview of the lab. I must force myself not to sheat this early in the lab because my gut feeling is that every one of those 45 minutes are worth it. But I´d love to get more feedback upon my "lab stragegy" this close to The Day. What have I missed, what is there also to think about? I will fly tomorrow spending most of the day traveling and will probably not open the computer at al that day. I will go by plane to Brusseles airport which is really close to the Cisco-site and will also stay at the closest hotel within walkin distance. So a good sleep and a good breakfast and on wednesday morning I will be at the front door. Actually, I am not very nervous at all right now. It will be fun! I am sick and tired of ipexpert Wb2 and Yusufs 2 labs, and it will be a blast just to see another lab scenario. :-) /J 2010/7/12 Vybhav Ramachandran <[email protected]> > Firstly, Good luck Jimmy!
