Scott, I'm in a similar spot regarding both the calendar and mental state.
Let me preface this by saying that I've not (yet) attended the 1-day lab and thus can't be accused of breaking NDA. For what it's worth, these are the operating assumptions I'm using to prepare for my 1st attempt at the 1-day lab. These may or may not be anywhere close to what is contained in the actual lab but I would say that anyone who confirms or dispels my assumptions would be breaking NDA so you probably won't get a "real" answer. I agree with Brad's comments that you shouldn't be "worried" with these issues but depending on your study/prep style some people prefer to make checklists of topics/issues to run through. In addition, I feel that getting mentally prepared will help you with "issue spotting" (ala Mr. Caslow). Without further delay, here are my thoughts on the subject (perhaps worth the $0.02...who knows): ### What I'm assuming will be configured/setup: - Physical cabling - Access-Server configuration (complete) - Frame-Relay switch configuration (complete) - IP addressing on all LAN interfaces - IP addressing on most WAN/Dial interfaces - IP addressing on most Loopback interfaces - Cat IP address(es) ### What may be configured (but maybe not depending on the lab scenario): - Cat default gateway (unless a dynamic solution is required) - ISDN SPIDs - Frame-Relay sub-interfaces (if required) - IP addressing on some F/R interfaces (e.g. main S0 frame interface) - VLANs defined (some) - Ports assigned to VLANs (some) - Simple routing protocol stuff (e.g. RIP on a stub router) ### "Simple" L1-3 stuff that will probably be left unconfigured (because of the problems that can be caused and/or multiple config. options that 'work' where only one is 'right'): - IP addressing on key loopback interfaces (e.g. routers involved in Virt. Links, etc.) - Frame-Relay address mapping - Dialer maps / dialer string - Datalink encapsulation (PPP, Frame, HDLC, Ethernet trunking, E-net frame types) - Tunnels - NAT - Bridging FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
