Aren't we already preventing that by tagging the bgp routes into ospf and blocking ospf routes into bgp in 1.9?

I haven't seen anything new posted here in awhile, DOO or design. Only a few changes, from old tasks but all of those are from almost a year ago.

Ah - I get what you mean now. I have not taken the lab to see the specific writing of the task. Does it limit our ability to change the area at all? That would be my only concern.

What small updates did your friend experience?

One of the workbooks I saw has that listed for step 8, what are they referring to by this? On Branch#3 complete and correct the configuration on switches sw601, sw602 and sw610 to allow HSRP and DHCP Relay operation in VLANs 2000 and 2001 according to these requirements: 1. HSRP must implicitly use the MAC address range of 0000.0c9f.f000 through 0000.0c9f. ffff 2. The group number must be 100 for VLAN 2000 and 101 for VLAN 2001 3. Sw601 must be Active gateway for VLAN 2000 with a priority of 110; the Active role ownership must be deterministic. 4. Sw602 must be Active gateway for VLAN 2001 with a priority of 110; the Active role ownership must be deterministic. 5. Each Active switch must track its uplink interface g0/1 and g0/2. If either of these interface goes down, the Active switch must allow the other switch to become Active. Howeve, it is not allowed for the tracking to modify the HSRP priority to accomplish this requirements. 6. Both sw601 and sw602 must be configured as DHCP relay agents in both VLANs 2000 and 2001, pointing toward the DHCP server 10.2.255.211 at sw211. However, at anytime, only the Active router in the particular VLAN should relay the DHCP messages. 7. Place host61 and host62 into VLANs 2000 and 2001 respectively and make sure they are assigned their correct IPv4 configuration. 8. It is not permitted to use any kind of scripting to complete this task.

What exactly does this step mean? 8. It is not permitted to use any kind of scripting to complete this task

Im not following you, that doesn't line up with your earlier post

I'm stuck on this one, for 1.13 we have to add 10.7.1.0/24. Which would then have R24 advertising this type 5 LSA into the DC. But back in task 1.8 we had to do this: Router r24 must advertise two prefixes,10.6.0.0/16 and 10.200.0.0/24 as Type 5 LSAs in OSPFv2 to provide HQ and DC with the reachability to the DMVPN tunnel and Branches#3 and #4. Is everyone just summarizing a /15 for this?

You would still need virtual link I think, because the connection between 102/202 is still in area 0 so traffic leaving 102 will prefer this path out. To test this out lab it up and traceroute from host 11 and 12, if you find a good method we haven't thought of here please let us know.

I have been asking this too with no responses. What have you been hearing? Some new questions or a full refresh?

How much have the design questions changed over the past year? All of the workbooks I am seeing have the same 39 questions. I know the test will likely change the wording quite a bit, but have there been many new questions added?

Does anyone have any information on if this task does include a change that includes the use of a virtual link? If so, how does it change the topology - is the hq a multi area deployment and the dc is area 0?

I kind of agree, that is what I am coming up with - but I feel that something is missing. For a 4 point question, it seems too easy of a solution do you concur?

What is everyone using for the initial config of the vManage? All other devices have configuration staged. I am able to piece together what I think it could be, but is there any files of this out there?

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you gained some knowledge that will let you knock it out next time.
