Hi;
For those exam are written, just cover the basic networking concept.
I did not think it can test your networking knowledge just mere thru
Multiple Choice.
Without go thru the process of building a network, people will not consider
that you are professional, just
a paper guy. That's my reason to go for lab, not because of money, just
want to show other people,
I can do it.
Just my opinion
