Houssam, Very valid question however, I strongly believe that you will not see something like this that is so drastically contradicting in the true lab. You might see something that says something that makes you add P-VLANs but will probable be on the ports connecting to devices on the other switches and not the Server.
And if you should see something like this, you must surly will have to get up and ask the proctor to clarify this.
