The following improved my TS skills, but they are still subpar: 1) read the "Troubleshooting <technology> Guide" on the DocCD. 2) list the five (or whatever) most important TS commands for that technology. 3) make Anki (ankisrs.net) cards and memorize them so as soon as you see a ticket with say Multicast, your mind rattles off the commands before you even have a chance to think. 4) try to use labs that a friend made for you. Hope it helps. Tim Sent from my iPhone On Feb 21, 2012, at 1:43 PM, Don Pezet <[email protected]> wrote: > I need some advice.
