Woohoo! The first major milestone in the journey to CCIE is complete. This weekend, on a whim, I decided to take the ENCOR 350-401 exam. Even though, I had some technical difficulties, the Pearson VUE team were great! The exam was thorough and fair, and stuck to the exam blueprint really well!

Trying to register for the ENCOR 305-401 online and paying with VISA but it's showing "this payment option is not available": Which is the prefered online payment method as even Cisco didn't make mention of the appropriate online exam purchase payment method!!

I just passed ENCOR this morning. I can confirm with what you are saying. The exam is relatively easy. Some topics are a little challenging. It all depends on how much you prepare yourself. I agree with the training. I did videos, exam prep questions, book and then labs. I will be focusing on ENARSI next, then DEVNET professional. And then onto the CCIE.

Glad you passed! I read a blog by Kevin Wallace (the author of the last CCNP Troubleshoot OCG) and he took the TSHOOT and failed - what does that say about the previous exams :) Being a content creator doesn't guarantee you can think like a cisco test writer. I've also had issues with the new OCG's first edition having errors and having to dual read it + errata + RFCs and "war stories" to make sure I'm getting the right info. You've at least sold me on a month of CBT nuggets.

I can’t speak for other creators - just for myself. My main “purpose” in content creation has always been centered on learning the core functionality so you can do it in the real world. I’ve never liked trivia questions personally. I think that’s why I enjoyed the DevNet exams so much. They were the most real world oriented exams I’ve seen

Seeing this makes me feel like a bit of an imposter. I finished my CCNA in August last year, then as soon as the Certpocalypse was announced, got back in the books and managed to complete the CCNP ROUTE, SWITCH AND TSHOOT by February to gain the CCNP R&S Cert and obtain the new ENCOR & ENARSI as a plus. Now i'm starting to work with some of the technologies that I never learned, but i'm apparently certified for, like Wireless, SD-WAN, Automation, even just IPSec tunnels. From watching this, I've decided to close the gap by going back to the ENCOR and ENARSI to get up to speed.

I know they have not done it in the past, but curious if they are doing it now.

No this is an old video but I thought I’d ask it anyways I took my cc in a back in 2013 and a few other Cisco things mostly been working in telecommunications so I use routing but not all the time play with it here in there and I’m taking the devnet associate and was just curious if I’m gonna need to take the CNA or can I just go right for the MPD or is it way too hard for me to probably grasp I guess I’m just trying to cut down on the expensive of all the Certs that’s it. Appreciate the video.

I already have my CCNP: Enterprise, but need to renew. I did the old ROUTE/SWITCH/TSHOOT for the R&S which became Enterprise. Automation, LISP, VXLAN, and DNA Center are entirely new as is some of the Wireless material. QoS and Multicast I have some exposure to from the CCIEv5 OCG (I had intended to pursue CCIE after CCNP but my career took me another direction). Does the exam go very in depth with this new material (Automation, LISP, VXLAN, DNA Center, QoS, and Multicast)?

There seems to be quite a lot in there which I don't recall being mentioned in CBT. My method is also CBT with notes, then book (also with notes to fill in any gaps), then repeat CBT labs and study every question / answer explanation in the BOSON exams. Really hope I have time to get it together! I'm skipping the OCG and going with "31 Days" instead. Still got 2 3rds of the book to get through then onto the labs. Fingers crossed.

Hi all, I have CCNP R&S certification and it expires soon. My understanding is if you I want to take only one exam to recertificate Encore is the one. But apparently if it expires, you only need Encore plus one concentration exam. Is this ok? If I cannot make it for the deadline, it doesn’t look this dramatic because you need to pass only two exams, instead of passing CCNA first and then the old 3 Routing, Swithching and Torubleshooting. Is it right? Thank you.

Hi Data Knox. I have heard that CCNP Data Center is a better bet than CCNP R&S these days. That is, in terms of the cloud revolution. Do you believe enterprise R&S will still be relevant when compared to Data Center? I am bummed as to which path I should take. I was a CCNP in R&S previously.

@DataKnox 3 жыл бұрын

I think there will be more demand for CCNP Enterprise because there are more enterprises than there are data centers. But DC is a good niche to get into because few people do.
