A guide for the TSHOOT Exam

March 7th, 2019 Go to comments

For the TSHOOTv2 exam we will encounter:

2 Simlets (small troubleshooting sim)
+ Multiple Choice Questions & Drag Drop Questions
+ 12 Troubleshooting Tickets (check them at the right-side menu)

Notice that in the exam, the tickets are randomly given so the best way to troubleshooting is to try pinging to all the devices from nearest to farthest from the client until you don’t receive the replies.

In each ticket you will have to answer three types of questions:

+ Which device causes problem
+ Which technology is used
+ How to fix it

One more thing to remember: you can only use “show” and “ping” commands to find out the problems and you are not allowed to make any changes in the configuration. In fact, in the exam you can not enter the global configuration mode!

Guideline to use Troubleshooting Tickets on networktut.com

When you access a Ticket (for example https://www.networktut.com/final_flash/flash_simulator/Premium_Sims/TSHOOT_Tickets/Ticket1/ml_ticket1.html) you will see this interface:

tickets.jpg

Note: If you cannot see the output above, please make sure you have installed latest Flash plugin at https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer and enable it on your web browser.

Most of the tickets have the same questions but different errors (it is also true in the real exam). In each ticket you can type your commands to get the information you need to answer them.

After entering each ticket, please have a look at the right-hand side. Do you see the 4 buttons? Please click on the 4 buttons on the right-hand side to access the CLI of each device.

Please have a look at the screenshot above:

– The first button (“Q”) represents the question (as the text you are reading here).
– The second button (“RT”) represents the Command Line Interface (CLI) of four routers from R1 to R4. After click “RT” button, you can type commands to the corresponding textboxes to get information about four routers.
– The third button (“SW”) is used to get information about four switches DSW1, DSW2, ASW1 and ASW2.
– The fourth button (“HA”) represents the CLI of two hosts Client1 & Client2. This is also the place where you can choose your answers to describe the problem of this ticket.

After clicking”RT” or “SW” or “HA” button you will see the CLIs of these devices. Here you can starting typing your commands to get the outputs to answer that ticket.

    @CapaLB you have to study ping plan.

    when ping ipv4 success then ipv6 success?
    if success focus R2 R3 R4

    when you ping 10.1.1.1 success you have to focus R1 DSW1
    when you ping 10.1.1.2 success just check R1 and R1
    when you ping 10.2.1.1 success you have to focus R4

    when you can’t ping any
    – DSW1 : ip helper address
    – DSW1 : vlan filtering
    – ASW1 : trunk port
    – ASW1 : port-sec
    – ASW1 : access vlan
    – ASW1 : encrypt dot1q

    Just simple.
    Good luck.

    Infrastructure services were 0%.
    One of them was “Troubleshooting Object Tracking”, and the answer was “Ticket 2: HSRP”.
    Ans1) DSW1
    Ans2) HSRP
    Ans3) delete the command with track 1 and enter the command with track 10 (standby 10 track 10 decrement 60).
    Why is that? I’m not convinced.
