IPexpert Multiprotocol Challenge C

I started IPexpert Multiprotocol Challenge Lab C yesterday.  It was not too bad but I had a lot of distractions.  The one portion that had me questioning my config versus the proctor guide relates to AAA.

The lab calls for controlling telnet access.  It says that the admin sould log int using port 3099.  Thats easy:


line vty 15

rotary 99

Next it says that the admin should not get a menu and that users should.  So I created a menu called Cisco.  No problem.  Then I tied the autocommand to one of the 2 users that I have in ACS:

User1 autocommand menu CISCO
This is where the lab differs.  Thel lab simply applies the autocommand to all the lines except the ont that has the rotary configured.

Line vty 0 14

autocommand menu CISCO

I suppose there was subtle wording in the lab that indicated that the autocommand should not be applied to a user, rather directly to a line.  Its the little things like this that are going to get me on October 16th.

Well back to the labs again today.
