Hi All,

This is my first post in this blog. I am pretty sure people are aware that there is open ended questions like R&S in SP lab too from jan 9th of 2010.

My query is what what will be the source of these questions. will be based out of the lab blueprint or the written exam blueprint.

If it's gonna be on the written blueprint it will be a real tough to clear them as the written exam blueprint spans across, ip telephony, sonet, sdh, dsl, metro ethernet, optical, DWDM plus MPLS.

Does someone have any clarity on the same. It would be great to have an insight.
