| hello guys
i was running thru one cheetsheet and as regarding the sim section (you know all commands in full) it was written that
RouterA(config)#interface ethernet 0
(notice the space between the t and the 0) is acceptable but for serial interfaces it must be
RouterA(config)#interface serial1
(observe no space between l and 1)
who knows what the exam says about it because i have tried both with space and without space on my simulators and they both worked | |

| I thought that it would work both ways, but your question brought some doubt. However, I tried it on a live 1605 router that my organization uses for Internet connectivity via a T1 line, and VOILA, both worked. | |

| The demo wouldn't let me use "int e0", only let me use "int e 0"(with the space). | |

| Currently running 25XX and 26XX routers. You can use either
Interface e0
or
Interface e 0
with the same result.
Tried the cisco simulator and it would not allow e0. A bit strange when the live IOS does!!!

| Let me help if I can.
On the exam you will have a router simulation that works exactly like a real router on a network.
It does not ask you to type in a command and then grade you on syntax. What it does is asks you to solve a problem. When you do- you submit that solution.
On the exam type is what you want (with or without the space) and if the router sim rejects it you will receive the same error message you normally would on a router. It does not count though unless you submit your solution.
It s the same with extended CLI commands verses abbreviations: some work and some do not on the router sim. Just make sure whatever exact syntax you use on the sim gets the job done- ping every interface form every device before you submit your answer. View the configuration too.
If you receive a MC question where the answers are:
a- Interface e0
b- Interface e 0
c- Both of the above

| how big is your hat?
I'm keeping that in mind tomorrow when I sit the exam. | |

| Andronda,
you're in luck. No multiple choice question forcing the issue about syntax/shorthand for interfaces
You can keep your hat on your head - or wherever a Texan wears it these days..
I played it really safe with the simulators - I typed everything with full long command form.
configure terminal
interface serial 1
copy running-config startup-config
And I still made one stupid sim error. I won't dump - but I could have avoided that one [nashing of teeth].
Thanks all, now when does the light descend from the sky, touch me, and make it so I know everything????

The ink isn't even dry on my test report. |
