Help & Editing Features in the CCNA Exam...

Guys...
I'm not sure if answering this will violate the NDA, but are the help and editing features tested on in the CCNA?

Do you "need" to know what Ctrl+A, Ctrl+B, Ctrl+F, etc means?

You pretty much have to know the commands. Some "?" stuff does work but not all... Cant rely on it.

All I can say about that is try not to fat finger the long strings of commands if you have to type in a long command. You will be better off typing slowly and thinking thoroughly than trying to save time and typing fast and having to go back and correct soemthing. If you have to move back a few characters to correct a typo, then things start getting kinda buggy. Like the spacing gets messed up and you start deleting things that you don;t want to delete and it's hard to tell where your cursor "truly" lies. This happened to me and some others here. I just hit the UP arrow to totally delete the whole string and started over.

As far as questions that test your ability to know the shortcut commands, nobody can really answer that. But you should just be familiar with the main ones if you have done a lot of configs. I mean ctrl+a and ctrl+e save me so much time so I just know them.
