Internetwork Expert Volume II: Lab 1 Task 2

Task 2 was frame-relay configs and this was a breeze. Then again this is Lab 1 (Level 5) so it can’t be that hard. Throughout this task, I had Narbik’s words yelling in my ears “Don’t use BROADCAST keyword unless its necessary”. So I did the sub-tasks without broadcast keywords. I will move on to Task 3 tomorrow which is related to IGP and then come back to this config and enable broadcast if necessary.

Overall, frame-relay section was not bad. Just make sure you know the basics and it should be a breeze. I shutdown all the related interfaces before I Started configuring them.

Well I wanted to finish Lab 1 today but ran out of time. I have only finished Tasks 1 & 2. Plan is to finish Task 3 before I leave for work in the morning. Let’s see how that goes…
