Hey Terry,
I would like to state for the record that every time I have done this lab I
have used PAgP regardless of what the DSG shows, you would be correct in your
assumption since the wording does state "negotiate". If for some reason mode
"on" is also OK I would like to know why that would be.
I too am paranoid and over think the scenarios most of the time, so I'm right
there with you guys!
Steve

I've got the same problem for sure... last week in the bootcamp Marko said I
really need to quit over-thinking things. I spend a lot of time worrying
whether my solution is the 'right' one.

Thank Jay, nice to know it's not me. I'm more scared of the wording of
an exam question than I am of the technology they are asking about (or
the tech I think they are asking about). I've become pretty paranoid
over the last year or so. lol
