Passed TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3
Dear,
I just want to share the feedback from skype group, please don't ask me about the vendor and the guy who passed.
1. Thank you all guys in our group
2. I've got TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3 with nat pool (last update)
3. Guys, learn technology, not topology. Use this great platform
4. At the exam, lot of things are preconfigured, more than we have in WBs. Lot of things are there to distract you, be careful and stay calm
5. I had 2 major issues - BGP in DC1 didn't want to come up. Till that point everything was flawless, I finished TS in an hour, DIAG in few minutes, prepared some config for H3if I get it.
And I got it. But this issue I never had before. I spent way too much time on it, at the end I saved config and rebooted RR ... and it worked emidiately ... But my confidence and moral were gone.
I started to make typos ... For DMPVN I couldn't see that I'm missing tunnel vrf INTERNET under Tu0 interfaces on spokes ... for 2 hours ... I was working on other stuff, got back to DMVPN 40 minutes before end of exam.
I had 2.10 and 2.11 sections left and DMVPN down ... I decided to work on DMVPN, as this was only chance to pass exam ...And luckily my eyes got opened right on time to fix it. 20 mins before end, I configured MCAST
and started to test everything ... I found 3 major typos - copy/paste mistakes which would cost me my number ... So be careful, match outputs perfectly ...
Here are few details from the lab:

- changed with the origin code
- changed OSPF cost on R13 interface to match trace perfectly - Pay attention
TK4

Q.Don't change any BGP attrib - no Pre-bestpatch configured
I just modified the cost to lo0 on R20 to be 1000 ..
TK5

DMVPN
IP on T0 of R60 was /32.
TK6
===
At R15, I advertised vl2001 network
TK7
===
I fixed MPLS only in 2 mins, didin't touch backup path.
R51 had 2 OSPF processes, but very strange redistribution, didin't want to waste time on it
TK8
===
SW310
In the init config, running snoop & arp at SW310
- i checked the trunk inter (sh int tru). One int doesn't incl arp inspection so i fixed
- And also added ip dh rela infor tru under vl2000 and vl2001
-Changed lease time in dhcp ser
TK9
===
Changed tunnel key on R71
TK10
===
This is init config :
ip nat pool NAT123 123.XX.XX.XX 123.XX.XX.XX netmask XX.XX.XX.XX
ip nat in so route-map NAT pool NAT123 over
ip nat in so stat 10.2.200.1 123.xx.xx.xx
Copy nat config from R25 to R24.
ip nat out so stati 201.99.70.2 123.xx.xx.xx

I bet vlans 2000 and 2001 were not passive, from the output thay asked for both to be DR on the segment, so I configured ip ospf net non-broadcast under vlan interfaces to match output
Sec 2.2
- OSPF was already configured with router-id in DC1 except below
Didn't have passive-interface vlan 2001 so didn't add "ip ospf prefix suppression"
Just added ospf prefix-suppression and served my purpose
Loop1 on SW100 and SW101 was not advertised in OSPF so added then in OSPF
Advertised VLAN2001 network into BGP on SW111
Sec 2.3
- OSFP 1 already configured in large office and just added router-id
- Remaining the same with workbook
Sec 2.4/5
The same with workbook - have a major issue with RR, iBGP came up only partiallly - spent lot of time looking for some ACL which is blocking TCP or something
I couldn't find anything ... At the end, after the lunch, I rebooted RR ... Everything was working normaly - still don't know what was the issue.
Sec 2.6/7
The same with workbook
Configure the Datacente's gateways R10,R11,R14,R20 and R21 as per following requirements:
ip prefix FILTER deny 10.0.0.0/16
ip prefix FILTER per 10.0.0.0/13 ge 16 le 16
ip prefix FILTER per 0.0.0.0/0

Already run ospf.
Take care "no bgp def ipv4" command
Sec 3.2
The same with workbook
+++ Don't forget set local preference 90 at R14 for AS65005. Like that
- i did change NAT pool netmask to match Lo123 subnet mask - from /24 to /28

it was mentioned to use :
int e0/0
no ip proxy-arp

Congratulation and Thanks for great feedback.
By a chance could you tell list the difference in between H3 and H3+ (H3 variation) you have? from what I can see in your list 3.2 is Internet access with some NAT pool and 3.3 seems to be DMVPN, in normal H3 3.2 is DMVPN and 3.3 is Internet access.
Thanks in advance.
Re: Passed TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3
I have a question, what is the difference between Diag H2 and H2+, there is no difference in the WB that i have except the answers. Thanks
Re: Passed TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3
Can someone share the H3 variation or H3+?
Re: Passed TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3
Hello,
can you please share C4C material
Re: Passed TS2, DIAG H2, CFG H3
Could you tell me why we need to set local preference 90 at R14 for AS65005?
We need to ping from User4 to 8.8.8.8 through R14 but it will no be through R14 if we set lower local preference. am I correct?
