second attempt and I still need to do it again

Whew! What an exam!

The proctor is a 5-CCIE holder and have been writing various CCIE lab
exam in the last couple of years.

This round of exam is having the same difficulties as my previous
one. Some trade off happens: there is (supposed to be) no wrong configs
in there. Even with fewer number of total tasks, the solution to be put
up is not a simple tasks (hey, this is CCIE all about doesn't it???)

Some oddities happened:

BGP ASN is different between the config and the diagram. The
proctor admits this is a mistake when the config was loaded -> I got
extra time for changing the config into the correct one

IGP and BGP diagram was mixed up and creating a contradictory
information amongst them. I informed the proctor that the BGP diagram
exist in IGP and I though this is a mistake. The proctor was helpful to
inform me to ignore the wrong one.

There is already a routing protocol setup in there, in full working
configuration. However, there is no guide in the exam paper mentioning
that this task required a migration from that routing protocol into
another routing protocol. The newly-configured routing protocol is the
one that the scenario is 'migrating' into. Lucky enough I pop-up this
question to the proctor that informed me the scenario is supposed to be
migrating between one routing protocol to another.

It turned out that I still need to further prepare my next CCIE lab
:)

However, the result is not what I expected it would be. Some domain
areas are given total 0% whilst I strongly believe it was working fine
(I even verified it various times to ensure this is
what the question is after).

Unfortunately, since this is a self-funded CCIE preparation, the next
attempt I could go is after July this year. I have drained the budget
for this semester and the soonest availability of my budget is after
July.

Meanwhile, I am doing all sorts of crazy scenarios for the sake of my
own curiosity. Who knows that those scenarios will be its own workbook
that I could share with the CCIE community.
I still have the habit of being a constructive instructor/teacher
anyway, so I hope my own 'workbook' would teach me gradually to be ready
from 'ground up' to be 'fully-credible' CCIE.

The tradeoff is: this workbook might be the long duration version of
CCIE-to-be. But, whoever uses it will have the choice of fast forwarding
to the level in areas that they need to pick up (just like me!).

This blog will never end, even after I got my multiple CCIE credentials
in the future ;)
