Share your ENCOR v1.2 Experience

EXAM PASSED TODAY !!!

That was hella easy TAKE THE EXAM RIGHT NOWW!!! LABS GONNA CHANGE METHORDICALLY

Mcqs were soo fun (SD WAN , PYTHON , ANSIBLE FILLED INSTEAD OF WIRELSSS)
1-7 Enough for pass the exam (v 1.1)

Congrats @NEWBIE!!

You mention that the questions come from v1.1 1-7. However I have premium membership and I only see v1.2 1-7? Did you mean the questions came from v1.2 1-7 which have just over 500 questions in total? Maybe v1.1 was renamed to v1.2?

thanks dear , I dont know – i dont have 1.2 Version pool . i wrote on my own risk
you dont have any issue if you face in this week 1.1 v more than enough

@CCNP_2026, digitaltut has updated the naming on the questions so now they are all v1.2, so just study all parts (1-7) and you will do fine!

@Cooked, thank you very much for clarifying this!

Hello @NEWBIE, thanks for your feedback, which labs did you get in the test? Can you recall any specific labs?

i def think 1.1 v same as 1.2 so we are good

@RJ11 dear labs were mixed but practising all make you good at it no issue
but i hope they ll change after this month

Hi
just passed exam today 04/12. 80% of questions, a lot of automation, JSON, REST API, interpret codes, 8 lablets (ordinary labs)
1. CoPP & Netlfow
2. OSPF summarization
3. STP and Etherchannel
4. eBGP
5. Tunnel 0 and VRF
6. IP SLA and monitor session
7.Netflow
8. EIGRP ACL
Be aware with JSON, python, xml, RESTCONF, coding questions
A lot of Ansible, Cheff and saltstalk
Easy question about SD Access and SDWAN
Be aware about time, dont use more than 8 min in labs. It took me more than 1 hour in labs. Good luck everybody.

@CEVJ. It should be 6 labs instead of 8, as multiple users reported 6 labs, but you reported 8.

Maybe you meant. #8 EIGRP ACL meant [Access-list & CoPP Sim] & 6# IP SLA and monitor session meant [NetFlow Sim 2], but you mentioned NETFLOW as well, did both Netflow labs come?

Please clarify asap

Passed, thank you all who provided feedback for their test, I am also going to provide mine as give back to the community.

I only used v1.2 Part 1-7, I studied all the parts and did a lot of composite quizzes, I personally preffered doing the 20q and 50q because they were shorter and allowed me to quickly review the questions I got wrong, I tried the 102q composite quize but it was too long and unrealistic for me as the exam does not have 102q.

About the exam, it was full of SDWAN,AUtomation questions, very few traditional networking questions, I got a few DnD which all are from this site, also for MCQ most of them are from this site the few that are not here can be answered based on concepts that are in this site, I mean if you understand the all the questions listed here you can answer any new questions in the exam with ease.

Labs, I got 6 labs, all from here, it was the easyest part for me, there was some change in things like, router names, numbers, IP addresses, process IDs, ACL names, but the concepts was the same.

I got the labs below same as other members,

VRF Configuration Sim
eBGP Neighbor Sim 2
OSPF Summarization Sim with /20 summarization variant
LACP & Root Bridge Sim
Eigrp ACL + NetFlow Sim 2
Access-list & CoPP Sim version 2 with 8000 bps variant

Thats all ladies, goodluck.

@CCNP_2026, sorry for the late response. The answer is yes. When I took the exam digitaltut still had the pool of questions named as v1.1 1-7. I double checked the pool of question from v1.2 1-7 and can confirm those are the ones I got on the test, of course the v1.2 1-7 has been updated to not include the wireless questions.

@ A quick clarification required did you get VRF Configuration Sim OR VRF Configuration Sim 2

@error404, thanks for replying to clarify. Appreciate that and congratulations again. I have my exam booked for this weekend. Once the SIMs remain the same or similar and questions come from the v1.2 1-7 pool, I think I should be ok thanks to this great site and community!

@ICBM_01 Or Anyone

A bit confused that VRF Configuration Sim & VRF Configuration Sim 2 both come in the exam, or just VRF 2 is coming in the exam. Please clarify if anyone can. Thanks

@Cheetah, it is not that hard, you can learn both of them.

Hi,

I didnt get it this part “1-7 Enough for pass the exam (v 1.1)”, What’s 1-7? …. I dont assing it yet

Other question, tut will update to new question to v1.2 or all questions is the same with exception Wireless

Can we use “tab” int the exam labs? or if we write some wrong letter there will be error or smth?

@Anonymous i understand that VRF SIM and VRF SIM 2 easy to understand but wanna know that both are coming in the exam or just SIM 2 is coming in exam.

Hi all,
I passed my exam at the weekend. My study for this exam was solely on the SIMs and v1.2 parts 1-7 questions from the premium membership. I’ve been a CCNP for 12 years now so that traditional stuff is pretty ok for me but I’ve no experience on the automation side.

There were 53 questions and 6 SIMs. There were about 20 questions that I did not see before on the v1.2 parts 1-7 questions. For those ~20 new questions, I was reasonably confident on about 5 of those questions, 5 were 50/50 and the other 10 were complete guesses. I had the same 6 SIMs that most people have referenced recently however several of them had different variable changes.

eBGP Neighbor Sim 2
OSPF Summarization Sim 2 (/20 was used and note that network address was not .0 so ensure you know your subnetting)
LACP & Root Bridge Sim
NetFlow Sim 2
Access-list & CoPP Sim (telnet version)
VRF Configuration Sim 2

While I don’t know my exact score, they give you a percentage across 6 sections. My average was 88% across the 6 sections although I don’t know if they were weighted evenly. Due to the amount of “new” questions, I was quite worried that I wasn’t going to pass compared to previous times that I’ve used this site to pass CCNP exams so it was a relief when the result came up in the end.

Good luck to everybody attempting the exam.

Hi there, similar experience to CCNP_2026, passed but quite a lot of new questions. Quite a lot on automation but if you understand the concepts, you can get by. A couple were total guesses though. Labs were same as the ones here but with minor variations (summarisation subnets used changing etc).

When I clicked the final answer button, it seemed like a month passed before it said that I’d passed!

Good luck everyone.

@digitaltut is there any news about the new questions appearing in exam v1.2? When we can expect an update???

what about labs?

The labs are still essentially the same as the ones on the site

@digitaltut, do you update with a new questions for v1.2?

It would be very important for newcomers who are just starting to study the v1.2 questions if it were updated with the new questions mentioned in previous comments! Please.

when can we expect new questions from the current version of the exam?

Of course, those new questions are very important @digitaltut any news about that?

Hi all,

Any updates about ENCOR new version?

I passed my exam today. There were 6 labs and about 53 other questions. Almost every lab was exactly the same as what is posted here on the site. I’m not kidding; often even the IP addresses were the same.

All of the drag-and-drop questions were also the same as those in the 1.2 (part 1-7) section. Which is lucky, because these are likely worth a lot of points. However, in the single-choice and multiple-choice sections, there were at least 10-15 questions that either weren’t in part 1-7 or were from the older section! I am certain there were questions from the old section, but I only read those once, so I didn’t know them as well. So, for anyone going to take the exam soon, I recommend reviewing the older questions too. The Premium is very much worth it; I don’t think I would have passed without it.

What I also suggest is to practice the labs thoroughly so that they go well even in an unfamiliar environment. I practiced with Eve-NG at home, which I got used to, so the lab environment and its handling were quite foreign to me. Because of this, I spent a lot of time on the labs, nearly two hours. I had less than 1 minute left per question afterward; I almost ran out of time and had only a few minutes left at the end.

Recomiendan usar 9tut para presentar el examen y actualizarán la versión 1.2

Passed the exam this weekend. Had a total of 59 questions along with 6 labs from here

1. eBGP Neighbor Sim with the address-family command
2. OSPF Summarization Sim without network command a /18 summary route
3. LACP & Root Bridge Sim
4. NetFlow Sim with HTTP GET operation (netflow was defined, just had to add destination ip & version)
5. Access-list & CoPP Sim to permit the ssh traffic variation
6. VRF Configuration Sim to extend the Finance vrf with Tunnel

First 6 questions were labs and it took more than 1 hour for me to complete it. Had atleast 10 to 15 questions not part of Encor v1.2 . Most of it is from architecture and few from access-list, policy-map, packet routing etc

Good luck everyone!!

Hi all,

Any updates about ENCOR new version?

Passed the exam on Friday 24th April 2026. Had a total of 59 questions along with 6 labs from here

1. eBGP Neighbor Sim with the address-family command
2. OSPF Summarization Sim without network command a /16 summary route
3. LACP & Root Bridge Sim
4. NetFlow Sim with HTTP GET operation (netflow was defined, just had to add destination ip & version)
5. Access-list & CoPP Sim to permit the ssh traffic variation
6. VRF Configuration Sim to extend the Finance vrf with Tunnel

First 6 questions were labs and it took more than 1 hour for me to complete it. Had about 15 questions not part of Encor v1.2 which took time to count questions i wasn’t too sure. .
Good luck everyone!!

Just passed the ex. There were around 12 new questions, those cannot affect the passing score since labs are completed correctly and answered to the other questions.
In labs, most of the request are switched, if here in labs should be configured on R22, there is on R11, same for OSFP, another router, so read carefully Once exam is started, labs are the first ones.

LACP lab, has only 2 ports in LACP, not 3, “switchport access vlan 20” should be removed from ports because Po will not be UP, since ports will have “switchport access vlan 20 + switchort mode trunk). LACP priority just for one vlan, vl20.
OSPF lab – had summ /17, and configuration were related with AREA 50, right side, not left, AREA 40 like in lab but all these are minor changes.
As soon you take the exam it will be better.

THX 9tut.

I passed the exam today.
There were a lot of new questions—some were from this material, but many were not.
There were also several questions related to automation.
The lab tasks were the same as usual (OSPF), but one key point was whether to use network statements.

Where new questions ? From 1.2

Where are these new questions ? From 1.2 9tut

after 40 days still no update, shame…

The around 12 new questions has zero relevance since 85% are the same from v1.2, labs the same with minor changes. Take the exam asap or wait for update here, since it seems most of the commentators doesn’t have exam scheduled.

Please update ENCOR 1.2 NEW QUESTIONS……..

@tut, do you news about the new questions?

passed today, about 15 new questions max, mix, AI, SD, network questions…
labs:
LACP & Root Bridge Sim
OSPF Summarization Sim with /16
NetFlow Sim 2 (HTTP GET)
Access-list & CoPP Sim (ssh version)
VRF Configuration Sim 2
eBGP Neighbor Sim2 (address-family ipv4)

i passed composite quizess only once with +90%, most of the times was arround 80% average

Hey SteveK

Just couple quick question
Access-list & CoPP Sim (ssh version) .. Do we need generate key or do domain name for SSH?
eBGP Neighbor Sim2 (address-family ipv4) .. are we do lab exactly in digitut or do we define neighbour in address family?

no need to generate key / domain name for SSH
bgp router-id under router bgp ASN command, network command under address family ipv4 section

please note that TAB doesnt work when adding bgp associations (neighbour IP remote-as XYZ)

Hi Everyone, I passed the exam today. for any questions please do ask.

Labs:

LACP & Root Bridge Sim
OSPF Summarization Sim with /18
NetFlow Sim 2 (HTTP GET)
Access-list & CoPP Sim (ssh version)
VRF Configuration Sim with tunnel security (IPSec)
eBGP Neighbor Sim2 (address-family ipv4)

About 10-15 questions are new but not that hard, you have to complete the labs correctly, I think they have the biggest share of the exam marks.

Hey @Crombo37, what will the new questions cover, & which topics will be include?

Passed the exam on 28th April 2026. Had a total of 59 questions along with 6 labs from here.

1. eBGP Neighbor Sim with the address-family command
2. OSPF Summarization Sim without network command a /18 summary route
3. LACP & Root Bridge Sim
4. NetFlow Sim with HTTP GET operation (netflow was defined, just had to add destination ip & version)
5. Access-list & CoPP Sim to permit the telnet traffic variation
6. VRF Configuration Sim to extend the Finance vrf with Tunnel

Tip: practice the medium composite quizzes until you have consistently been getting the 90+ score.

@Crombo37

It means you got VRF lab [VRF Configuration Sim with tunnel security (IPSec)] instead of VRF2 lab [vrf definition Finance] because mostly guys are getting VRF 2 lab.

Please clarify asap.

@ Liza, most of the new questions came from infrastructure (Tier2/Tier3) and sd-wan.

@Cheetah, yes, I got the VRF lab with tunnel security with IPSec.
