Well, they certainly aren't treating the Written Qualification test the same way, otherwise they would really like to change "all" Que's since most of what cisco tests you on already appears on more popular practice tests. >to get back to your question, your Lab book will present you with a general >instruction that will say something like "do not do A, B, or C, unless >otherwise instructed" Then a particular requirement might say "you may do C >to accomplish this" or "do not do X to accomplish this" > >In the case of the particular practice lab, the instruction was "do not use >the default-network command" which got me to wondering what are some other >ways to get a default network into IGRP.

True again. If its not asking for too much, can you let me know a plan that I can follow to crack the lab (already passed the written) I know its difficult to create a plan without actually knowing what I know, and you might say that "one size doesnt fit all" thats true as well, but there would be a list of Do's & donts and a sequence where one should begin and where to end (if there is one :) Also, a list of absolute must technologies that one must know back to front (specially ATM & Voice, how much should we concentrate on, isnt Cisco ATM solutions an overkill ?)
