I have a theory. It might be wrong. It might not be* Lets say the book says, "Configure an IP address of 1.1.1.1 as Loopback 1234". Obviously I am making a simple example here.
Grading script kicks in, and runs some command like "show ip int brief" and "ping 1.1.1.1". It would expect an output of something like: .... Loopback 1234 1.1.1.1 up up .... !!!!! etc. If this portion of the script is running, as is some PPP debug gets hit concurrently, then the output might look something like: PPP-7-something-changed-gofixit-23473298753945-b4ll5up Loopback 1234 1.1.1.1 up up PPP-7-something-changed-gofixit-23473298753945 etc The second output does not match the desired first output. Computer says no. *Not too fussed if my theory is correct or incorrect as I have already passed. FWIW - I left no debugs running and I did not use any alias or tcl commands in my lab.
