>Hi all,
>
>I've created a "Lab Tips" file of small items - factoids, reminders,
>suggestions, etc, I tend to forget. This is something I can refer to
>constantly when I'm doing practice labs or just have a few
>minutes to spare.
>
>Here's a snippet from my Tips file.
>
>BGP
>Hard code router-id
>Don't use loopbacks for ibgp peering unless explicitly required
>Look for nei ... next-hop-self requirement especially on F/R hub and
>ethernets
>Disable bgp client to client reflection when clients are fully meshed
>Turn off auto-sum & sync unless explicitly required
>Reset BGP sessions using hard reset rather than soft reset.
>Know how to config nei xxxx local-as in combo with RR.
>Know all ways to config dampening
>
>I'm sharing this with GS because I suspect many candidates
>might also have
>something like this. And, I thought that with all the great
>brain power
>among GS subscribers we could all help each other by adding
>tips to such a
>file.
>
>Here's my definition of what makes for a good tip.
>
>1) A tip may not in any way violate the NDA
>2) A good tip should be something that might be easily
>forgotten because
>it's not that often encountered or somehow different from the
>ordinary. For
>
>example, when configuring ISIS over frame relay, don't forget
>to enter the
>"fram map clns <dlci> broadcast" statement. For me, this is a
>good tip
>because I personally don't practice ISIS that often and I seem
>to almost
>always forget that command.
>
>3) A good tip must be short and clear because the whole idea
>behind this
>file is to provide a quick reminder of various networking
>facts that can
>come in handy during the actual lab.
>
>4) A good tip must should not waste time going into the "why"
>of the fact or
>
>all the various permutations. For that, anyone interested can
>research the
>"why" of the fact on their own.
>
>5) A good tip for one person might not be at all useful to
>someone else. We
>
>each tend to remember and forget different things. But, for
>example, over
>time the BGP tips section may include 30 items and while I
>doubt all 30
>items will be useful to all people, I'm sure that 5 or 10 or
>15 of the tips
>will be useful to many people - just that it won't be the same
>5 or 10 or 15
>
>tips.
>
>6) A good tip must be potentially relevant to a ccie R&S candidate.
>Therefore, I ask that Off Topic comments be submitted
>elsewhere - Let's keep
>
>posts with the subject "Lab Tips" focus on just that.
>
>It's my hope that over time, with the input of a lots of
>people here, this
>lab tips file will grow to include tips that cover every topic
>potentially
>on the R&S lab exam. And, that as a result, we can each add the most
>personally valuable tips from this group effort to our own lab
>tips file.
>
>Right now, my tips file has no entries for voice. So, I'd
>like to start off
>
>by asking people to submit their voice config tips. Of course,
>tips on any
>potential lab are also welcomed.
>
>Here are some other potential tips topics I hope people feel
>free to submit
>tips to.

>Please add your tip under the appropriate heading and send back to GS.
