For this task, answer the “Do I Know This Already?” questions again for the chapters in this part of the book, using the PTP software.
For this task, use PTP to answer the Part Review questions for this part of the book.
Review all key topics in all chapters in this part, either by browsing the chapters or by using the Key Topics application on the companion website.
Depending on your chosen lab tool, here are some suggestions for what to do in lab:
Pearson Network Simulator: If you use the full Pearson ICND1 or CCNA simulator, focus more on the configuration scenario and troubleshooting scenario labs associated with the topics in this part of the book. These types of labs include a larger set of topics and work well as Part Review activities. (See the Introduction for some details about how to find which labs are about topics in this part of the book.)
Blog Config Labs: The author’s blog includes a series of configuration-focused labs that you can do on paper, each in 10–15 minutes. Review and perform the labs for this part of the book, as found at http://blog.certskills.com. Then navigate to the Hands-on Config labs.
Other: If using other lab tools, here are a few suggestions: Make sure to experiment heavily with IPv4 addressing, static routing, and Layer 3 switching. In each case, test all your routes using ping and traceroute.
Chapters 15, 17, and 18 each list a video to be found on the companion website, on topics ranging from how to use the router CLI, how to configure ROAS, and how to troubleshoot using Extended ping.
