@Guest Could you please shade some lights on the questions you got, my exam is tomorrow
Hi Mal,
Honestly, I don’t remember exactly. New AAA questions, new Python questions, something about Firepower (whatever that’s supposed to mean in the context of ENCOR). But as I mentioned, if you’ve prepared thoroughly—and didn’t just rely on rote memorization—you’ll be able to handle it, even with the new questions. Don’t let it rattle you.
Good luck
Hi Guys, Passed the exam, As already many mentioned, a lot of different questions in the exam. My guess is +/-50%.
The labs are almost the same. vrf 1 and 2 combined (Learn Both), netflow sim1, OSPF Advertised & Summarized Sim, Access-list Copp_SSH, Lacp with rootvlan and eBGP Neighbor Sim 2. If you learn the labs and Q and A’s from here, you will be fine! Wish you guys the best luck!
how is posible that one person say only 50% of the questions? other say 75-80%. I don,t understand this. More coments say 75% but the peeople that say 50% is that not remember the questions or what happens?
Hi all, passed the exam today.
The labs are the same; maybe the IP addresses change.
95% of the questions are known and the unknown questions are not too hard.
I had one new question about a AutoQoS and a service-policy applied to an interface. It contained a table-map (never heart before) and a CoS mapping.
Hi Jon, Does teh questions came from Encor v1.1 or v1.2? thanks
hello, is there sstill something like .vce simulator? or vce files? I did testing like 8yrs ago..
Hi Mancora. The questions are v1.2.
Hey everyone,
I was wondering about the labs that many people keep mentioning in the comments. I often see replies saying that these labs are available through the site, but I’m not sure where exactly to find them.
When I go to the **Basic Labs** or **Lab Challenge** sections on the side of the page, I only see labs that seem different from the ones everyone is talking about, such as:
* Finance VRF (Sim 2)
* NetFlow (Sim 2)
* OSPF Summarization
* eBGP with Address Family (Sim 2)
* EIGRP ACL & CoPP
* LACP & Root Bridge
Could someone point me to the exact location on the site where these labs can be found, or share a screenshot of where to click?
Thanks!
So I actually failed this exam. The labs here were somewhat in the exam. But for a few of the key configuration did not work. So I wasted to much time trying to figure out how to get them to work.
Example I had Access-list CoppSim lab
For task 1 there is no command called access-list extended xxx so I wasted 25 min trying to edit this access_list.
I also had VRF2 and this one jammed me up for another 20 min
Under int tunnel 10.
Vrf forwarding finance
The command tunnel source did not exist nor would it take same for tunnel destination
Lastly I had ospf summarization sim and for what ever reason after entering the 10.50.40.30 commandment for area 50 osfp started flapping again I wasted to much time trying to t-shoot what should be straight forward stuff.
The question were kinda easy but by the time I got to them I only had 25 min left so I had to rush thru them.
I will say for many of them they can be found on v1.2 the drag and drops I had 3 that I have never seen.
Overall if u have a way to run some of these commands do so before going in to the test just to see what potential error messages there are.
This test is not hard but if u get hung up a lab u will find urself scrambling on other labs and or the Multichoice questions
And the timer does not wait
hi kingchamp33. is strange the order: “ip access-list extended 150” and then the order: 5 permit gre any any is correct.
You execute conf t and the this and in cisco go correctly. You put ip first? or what happens?
and in the second example you said the tunnel source not run. I search and the definition is correct. Normaly appear invalid input because you are not insaid the tunnel interface.
in examen i don remember if you put tunnel ? not appear the options no?
Could it be that the ISO didn’t load correctly during your exam? Did you complain? Perhaps you could retake the exam because it loaded incorrectly.
the orders that yo comment are correct in cisco. IP access-list extended and tunnel destination. Is posible your exam charge bad ? is posible you write in incorrect site or place?
Any other person can confirm if this instrucction go correct in his exam? if thes is ok cking go to cisco and demand to retake the exam
@sherifibra Hey buddy, you need to buy a premium service on this site to be able see and practice all labs. Im practicing every day right under Lab Sims for ENCOR v1.2
Hello guys, few days ago I passed the exam. I got 6 labs 1:1 with these here. 59q around 40% are new , rest are from here. Thanks all for the feedback , it was informative for me.
I would like to ask if we need to revise section ENCOR 350-401 v1.1 Questions ?
The last 2 say 95% question are here. Gogó are you sure 40% new? Is no logic
@Rare Most probably Gogo passed his/ her exam in the Lalaland!!!!
Hello guys, I passed the exam yesterday. I got 6 labs 1:1 with these here. 53q around 20% are new , the rest are from here V1.2. Thanks

@@tom, congrats! Could you please tell me which labs you had in the exam?
Access-list & CoPP Sim to permit the TELNET traffic variation
VRF Configuration Sim to extend the Finance vrf with Tunnel

OSPF Summarization Sim without network command a /19 summary route
Thank tom
@@tom I really appreciate it!
@tom, hey mate, are the Qs only from v1.2 or v1.1 is necessary to be learned as well? Cheers
Passed the test. There were about 10 new questions never saw. The rest were from v1.2. Had the usual labs:

VRF Configuration Sim to extend the Finance vrf with Tunnel
LACP & Root Bridge Sim
eBGP Neighbor Sim with the address-family command
OSPF Summarization Sim without network command a /18 summarization

Congrats to everyone who passed the exam.
I have a question about practicing exam questions.
Is ExamCollection still sufficient to use for version 1.2,
or is there another source you would recommend?
Thanks.
I just passed the exam. As mentioned others there have been a new questions which aren’t in the v1.2 section yet. My labs:
Access-list & CoPP Sim => SSH
VRF Configuration Sim 2 => VRF FINANCE was there already
LACP & Root Bridge Sim
eBGP Neighbor Sim 2
OSPF Summarization Sim 2 => /16 summarization
Netflow Sim => mix of 1 and 2, sla with http
Hi wuhuu,
Did you use the ENCOR Testing Engine in the premium section of this site?
Regards,
Hey, just asking if someone out there used Cisco IOU in Solaris Sun Sparc? Thanks
I am taking CCNP ENCOR tomorrow morning. I will update, hopefully with a good result.
Goodluck @Newbie
@Newbie Good luck, friend!
Took and passed the test today.
I got total 59 questions (6 labs + 53 Qs)
Labs included..
Access-list & CoPP Sim (SSH)
VRF Configuration (Sim 2(
LACP & Root
eBGP with address family
OSPF Summarization with /17
Netflow Sim
—— Among the 53 questions, I feel like I saw 80-85% of the questions from v1.2 practice exams. No Wireless questions at all. There were questions I haven’t seen on this website, but educational guess was possible. Definitely recommend going over v1.2 practce exams at least twice, and all labs provided.
passed the exam few mins ago. most Q&As are new – heavy on automation, 2 items from v1.1 question banks, v1.2 question banks different wordings / rephrased questions ; i only got 1 Drag and Drop, i got flow exporter lab – u need to monitor both SW’s interface (PC1 and PC2) then forward to a different interface. I thought i failed the exam – looks like most of the points I got are from the 6 Labs. Good luck to all, take the exam asap – do not wait much longer.
Done the exam too, same exam in here with a twist 10.40.50.0 /19 in the sumarization ospf. Like 10 to 15 new questions like drag in drop leaf, leaf-list, list and container. So many new, i cant remember. Thanks digitaltut. Pass the exam
How do you get the v1.2 practice exam? Is it via some link once you pay for the premium? Can someone please guide? Thanks.
I mean all labs are here but not all totally same, only concept. @Seeking_Cisco_Recert yes you need to be premium here to get the 1.2 practice exam.
@Seeking_Cisco_Recert
Yes. Once you get premium, you will be able to get access to the entire practice exams and labs. Like Spider_EDZ mentioned, labs’ concepts are very similar. But what I felt during the exam was, the requirement for labs were pretty much the same except for using different ip address or subnets.
Just pass my ENCOR exam !
I got 59 questions.
Lablets:
-Access-list EIGRP & CoPP Sim (SSH)
-VRF Finance Configuration + Gre Tunel + Static routes
-Trunk LACP & Root Spanning Tree
-eBGP with address family
-OSPF without network command + Summarization with /19.
-Netflow Exporter + Monitor SPAN + SLA HTTP GET
A lot of new questions…like half of them. Many of them very weird.
I thought I will fail the exam, but I guess the labs pulled me through…
Thanks digitaltut for your help ! For sure will use this site again for ENARSI exam preparation.
I’ve just passed my exam, got 6 labs
VRF Sim 2
Access-list EIGRP & CoPP Sim (Telnet)
-Trunk LACP & Root Spanning Tree
eBGP with address family
OSPF without network command Summarization with /17 Area 50
Netflow with ICMP and Enable flow monitor
Most of the MCQs are new.
Thank you for all your comments, it helped a lot.
Hi all,
I got technical issues during the test and had to repeat again.
The problem is my premium membership here is expired, can anyone sent me his credentials (user & pass) i only need to recap for max 3 days.
If anyone can assist, mention me and i will drop my gmail, where you can share with me data.
Hi all, I just passed the exam. Labs:
VRF Sim 2
Access-list EIGRP & CoPP Sim (SSH)
Trunk LACP & Root Spanning Tree
eBGP with address family and tunnel protection
OSPF without network command Summarization with /17 Area 50
Netflow with ICMP and Enable flow monitor
There were a number of new questions maybe 20%. with v1.2 should be enough to succed. Good luck yuo all.
I just passed the exam.
The 6 labs are exactly the same as the ones on this site:
– Access-list & CoPP Sim (SSH)
– eBGP Neighbor Sim 2
– OSPF Summarization Sim (network statement + /18 summary)
– NetFlow Sim 2
– VRF Configuration Sim 2 (Do it at R11)
– LACP & Root Bridge Sim
Regarding the 53 MCQs, I didn’t think I would pass because I saw many questions that were not in v1.1 or v1.2. After going back to check v1.0, I found about 7 questions from the old ENCOR v1.0 + many new ones. If you have time, I highly recommend going through all of them (v1.0, 1.1, and 1.2).
Good luck to everyone!
Exam tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll have good news to share. Also congrats @Mancora
@The_Real_ENCORE goodluck on your exam! hoping for a good news! kindly let us know how it went.
Hi all, I just passed the exam,
6 Labs
– Finance VRF Sim 2
– eBGP Neighbor Sim 2
– Access-list & CoPP Sim (Telnet)
– OSPF with network commands + /20 summary
– LACP & Root Bridge
– Netflow Sim 2
53 MCQs.
Τhere were many new questions on the exam less than half of them. I also got about 4-5 drag-and-drop questions. To be honest, I felt like I hadn’t passed, but I have a feeling that the labs carry more weight and give a higher score.
Practice the labs as much as you can.
Good luck to everyone!
Thanks digitaltut!!!!
Congrats to everyone who passed the exam.
Did someone also combine ExamCollection to use for version 1.2
Or majority here in digitaltut is more than enough?
or is there another source you would recommend?
please feel free to share any other valid exam d*mps?

I passed today and renewed my CCNP for the 3rd time, much has changed these last 9 years, I promissed myself I would go for CCIE last time but I didn’t, not sure if I want to go through this in 2029..
Anyway, let’s talk about the exam, I don’t know how I passed, still trying to see where to see the grade it had to be by a minimum, not even I believe it.
First they give you the labs, this is new, they used to put them randomly in the middle so it helps. Beware of the versions, study all of them, you can see below how, I got different versions on some of them:
* CORP VRF (Sim 1) you need to tunnel protection ipsec, on the exam is task 2 and not optional.
* NetFlow (Sim 2) – This one with ICMP, everything was the same, down to the vlan 12
* OSPF Summarization – area 40 and /16, so it pays to know how to do with different masks.
* eBGP with Address Family (Sim 2) – exactly the same but Lo’s are 1,100 and 200.
* EIGRP ACL & CoPP – This one they tell you to do OSPF ACL, but it’s the same 5 permit ospf any any on ACL 120 in this case, and they ask you to do the CoPP for Telnet and on R30, which I thought it was odd, not R20, I placed a comment there, but did what they told me to do.
* LACP & Root Bridge – same but Po was 20 not 11 and it has only 2 ports e0/0 – 1, and you cannot access any other SW.
Then starts the questions, a lot of them I didn’t even think they are the same, I was getting 95% on tests here so no problem. But then they throw you some Python madness, one or 2 EEM’s I never saw like regex and publish_event instead of our “normal” syslog and cli..so to be honest, I thought I was done for…then “congratsm you passed” so the labs pulled their weight, trust on those do it in the begining do them well, do copy run start, even thought they say it saves on next…do it anyway ;) double and triple check thos sh run’s.. and good luck guys!
Hi,
How many questions has the dump?
