Not necessarily true.  Remember since it's no partial credit, you could
MOSTLY have section 1 working, but miss something small, therefore 0 points.
If it's POSSIBLE to have section 2 working based on your
config/requirements, then you'll still get those points.

But as an example, if you screwed up frame-relay links and it wasn't working
AT ALL, then you can't possible get points for OSPF over Frame (or anything
else) because it will not possibly function no matter how good your config
looks!

If I could just add one more thing...

You may have a section dependent on a previous section.  Lets say OSPF to
make it easy...

Question 1 (4 pts):
Configure OSPF to advertise networks ABCD in Area x

Question 2 (2 pts):
Configure md5 authentication in area x.

If you miss out (lets say) network C in Q1, you score zero points in it.
You will also score zero points for Q2 as the dependency is also not
working.

We can take this further again:

Question 10 BGP (4 points).
Establish EBGP between R1 in network C and R6 in Network Z Make sure x,y,x
occurs etc

Now... as network C was not advertised in OSPF to begin with at the start, C
is unreachable and hence Q10 wont work.  Even if all config is correct in
Q10, if it doesnt work, you score zero for that question.

So in summary:
That one typo or whatever it was for Q1 didnt just cost you 4 points there,
it also cost 6 more points in Q2 and Q10 because they rely on
Q1 to work properly.H
