Oh yeah I forgot to answer one of the questions. Yes I have changed my
strategy since my previous (2) attempts.
Here is what I am practicing:
After infrastructure is configured and working, go ahead and get QoS
out of the way. No need to have that ugly monster bite me in my ass
later in the day. From there focus on knocking out as much as I can in
my IOS devices, with the exception of a completed dial-plan. You've
taken the lab twice now, I am sure there are some things that you know
that you can expect. Configure some of those things in notepad before
you ever touch a device or open the lab book. No need to waste time on
those things, get over with quickly. Once I move to servers, I know
the top-down, left to right approach is famous however I have been
doing some things such as building place holders for things that I am
not ready to configure yet, before doing the top-down, left to right
thing. I know that my device pools will hold certain information so I
build those placeholders first so that I won't have to go back and
dilly-dally with that stuff.
One of the things that has been helping me is I am learning how to
slow things down mentally. Deep breaths have been working wonders for
me.
Quoting Steffen Bruening <stbruen...@gmail.com>:
Hi all,
I was in Bruessels yesterday and I failed. I was suprised about my score
report and about the amount of section were lost points. I only know one
definitly mistake, about the other things I could only suppose.
It seems that I am just to stupid to read the questions. I was finished
with the configuration after 5 1/2 hours and I tested everything twice,
solved the issues I found, but unfortunately it was not enough.
I booked my second attempt for January, but to be honest I am really
frustated and I don't know how should keep my motivation and focus. Sure I
will make further remote labs to keep my speed, but what else could I do
till my second attempt?
So all second/more attempter what have you made during your till your next
lab seat? Did you changed or strategy/learning focus or anything else?
Regards
Steffen
