help function and shortcuts on CCNP exams

martell1000

since i scheduled my ROUTE exam for Wednesday some of the almost forgotten panic starts to kick in and i wonder if
the exam engine supports shortcuts and stuff like tap and ?

i am just asking because i have made very different experiences in the past, like on the ICND 1&2 exams it was supposed to
work but before the exam the staff told me that due to technical problems the ? is not available and that i might get a free vouvher if i should fail..

so after doing some final labing here i recognized that i use TAB and ? quite often and that it would be kinda hard working without them in the IOS...

Yes, they're both supported. Keep in mind, though, that not all commands will be programmed into the simulation.

I didn't need to use ? or tab but I do vaguely remember seeing a msg on specific SIMs that said they were disabled. But not all of them.

the thing is that this seems to be a known an common issue. as i said in the other thread there were huge problems with that when i was sitting the route exam, where the use of tab or ? is a huge benefit and allowed in all sims.

You can use it. Also, they don't implement all commands, so if you don't know what to do and are looking for a command that might work, it is a greatly abbreviated list of commands which can help you out.
