Just taken the lab yesterday 4th May in Brussels, thought'd Id nailed it also, got 100% on most sections, but flunked Multicast and Security Badly, especially in the security section where I read far too much in to the question, believe I had the config right first time, changed it after I re-read the question, could'nt get it working which busted another section of my lab, so I removed the config for that section which was 3 points, and I believe this would have taken me over the line...
Not to worry.. things I learnt
1. Its Passable
2. Dont be scared of taking the lab, just treat it with respect
3. The Lab itself, if youve done the prep work is very fair
4. Dont over complicate the question
5. If you do fail, take it on the chin, you wont be the first person to fail, nor the last at the first go. Remember the stats are against you, generally 2.5 goes to pass
If anyone who did take the lab in Brussels on the 4th May, and you did pass let us know and Congratulations in advance to whoever did
Cheers
Darren

Sorry my man.
You say you came close and I do believe your question was answered in
previous posts.
I picked up on something you posted.
I do believe that you read too much into the question.
If they did not specify anything about the other switch you should have
perhaps ignored it.
I am not referring to this actual section but if you applied this logic here
I most certainly think you applied this logic in the more complex sections
as well.
You might have just complicated your lab to the point where it became
impassable.
This is what I learned from my first attempt.
Do what they say, meet the requirements and if you are not sure ask the
proctor.
I will be tested on this basis very soon.
I hope I can practice what I preach :)
PS. Just don't give up

Sorry to hear you didn't pass.
About your question, port-priority is carried in the BPDUs coming from the
root switch. So in order to change the blocked port on the non-root
back-to-back connected switch - then change it on the root.
Best,
Nick

guys i attemted my labs on 1st may .... it was apretty good
experience... i thought i would have cleared it but unfortunatly i
didn't
just few doubts that came to me...
in case vlan load balancing and if port cost is not supposed to be
used... can we give priority on both ends ? just to ensure if root
changes the preferences stays the same....
