Hey everyone,
Final i was able to take the exam and pass it. No score given after passing, but got email with %ages of each section. I must say i was pretty surprised that i got really high %ages in many sections.
My comments are not showing up
Coming to the exam i was really anxious and i dont remember the exact count of new questions i faced. most likely it could be around 20+ like how other said.
similar to what others told earlier:
1) What’s TLOC role in SD-WAN?
2) Drag and drop – different contents for Ansible and Saltstack
3) OSPF Prefix-list and Distribution-list syntax related: there is a /16 subnet , of which the OSPF should not learn that particular route, you have to chose 2 options, one for the prefix list and other is a distribute list. I chose the prefix list with 0.0.0.0/0 le32 and distribute In.
4) how does ARP, broadcast work in SD-Access for silent host? –> i Answered: L2 Flooding
5.)configuration for vrf import into another one
The exam is doable if you practice the dump i shared , take the New questions tab in V C E atleast 10 times and get 100%
then practice 527 questions 3-4 times until you get 95%
I’m pretty weak in automation, SD WAN, Wireless , so had to rely on dumps.
CoPP profile, IP SLA , wireless/wifi
Allow unlimited SSH for particular subnet, this is similar to one in the V C E file i shared , except with few changes in answer
Rated R
Good job @RatedR
Same experienced here from yesterday, it is also very hard to take the online exam. The proctor is very strict with the movements.
Big congratulations to RatedR!!
RatedR Congratulations
@R
Thanks. I finished studied the qbank u shared.
If I get all new question wrong, can I still pass the exam?
Thanks guys.
@ mrccnp: studying just the qbank or cramming it and not actually learning the concepts is a Gamble my friend.
Like Gamble you may or may not win all the time.
If you know the concetps , you can apply some login to certain questins even if you’re not sure of the answer.
Thats how i did my exam, for the questions i dint know the answer, i used my experience, some knowledge and Logic. I passed the exam with good %age so i’m sure my Logic worked there.
Thanks guys.

1.) If you know the concepts , you can apply some Logic to certain questions even if you’re not sure of the answer.

@mrccnp, study concepts if not all, atleast most of it
use your experience and knowledge to judge the answer
I used my exper and knowledge and Logic to some qustions which i dint know the answer for sure
I feel this can be a good time to take the exam if you have practiced the V C E file i had shared.
good luck to all
I will be here for sometime and Vanish
if there are new questions posted, will update the dumps right away.
But i may not be able to do it for long. Someone else can carry on this Legacy
congrats @AnonymousRatedR!
I just signed up for the premium membership to study for my CCNP renewal. Is the Premium membership enough to pass? I only ask because I see @AnonymousRatedR said to use the file he posted. Thank you for any insight!
@R
are 20+ new questions quite risky to take the exam?
I mainly memorize the ans > <
@tam100: Its one and the same. but i suggest practice the V C E as well. both shud be fine.
@BlackJack: i prefer staying Anonymous, if you have any query, feel free to post it here.
@mrccnp: If you like Gambling, sure go ahead. Most likely you will pass.!!!
Hello Everyone,
I appeared for exam today in pakistan and Passed. there was almost 21-22 questions which were unseen.
1) Drag and drop – different contents for Ansible and Saltstack option include (SSH, imperative, procedural.
2) one question related to EIGRP and OSPF it was easy just remember which is open source and Cisco propietry.
3) what is cisco trustsec?
4) which virtual MAC address does HSRP group 14 use?
5) 2 questions regarding flex connect
6) what is benefit of SSO
7)what is OVP or OMP i dont really remember.
Best of luck to all of you and specially the guys who made VCE and pdf files it helped alot.
For those who used the dumps and vce, are the answers completely correct? or are there any corrections?
@UBQ: you would definitely need to thank an Indian Guy ;) , congrats
@OB: I made sure to correct the answers with the discussions on this page and digi tut explanations.
I have personally used the D U M P file i created
I remember getting the qstion related to Cisco Trust Sec
a topic to study for exam takers
please send me the dump anyone at
a.hatimq (at) gmail
thanx in advance!
@Anonymous
Which qbank u used?
How many new questions are there?
Which two Cisco SD-Access components provide communication between traditional network elements and controller layer? (choose two)
A- network data platform
B-network underlay
C-fabric overlay
D-network control platform
E-partner ecosystem
Puppet pros:
It’s incredibly extensible, due to that ruby stuff
Ansible pros:
It’s very easy to learn, due to the simple yaml configs, and the great documentation.
It doesn’t require a special server or an agent or anything. Got SSH? You’re ready to go.
Tasks are always executed in the order they are written down, which makes things much easier to understand.
Great SD- ACCESS Content
https://fastreroute.com/cisco-sd-access-components/
Took the exam today . I pass with high score in the percentage results . Most of the part 9 questions were in my exam .
I was having few questions that i have never seen anywhere , some of them have been mentioned in the comments above and some new that i can not remember to describe them( Drag and drop – different contents for Cheff and Saltstack)decrarative,ssh etc .
If you have study all the questions here i beleive its safe to take the exam.
Where is this part 9 questions? in which dump?
@sencor
For the new questions, free guess can still pass the exam?
is that the dump already cover the questions enough for u to pass?
Can anyone tell me if RatedR’s PDF and vce file contain any new or different questions than what is already in DigitalTut premium section? Or are they the same exact questions. I’ve only been studing DT questions and taking DT tests and will be taking exam in a few days. I want to know if I’m missing out on any other questions not already in DT premium section. Thank you all!
@RatedR….Congrats on passing your exam. Please how many new questions did you add to the pdf dumps you created? Thanks for all you do!
Hey Guys I passed today in Midwest USA, Score was high 80 and 90% on all sections.
See Rated R posts on some of the new questions I also faced. Other than that the premium section of DigiTut is still VALID!!!I did not see 20 + new questions , only a handful, again see the RatedR notes on the new questions – those are valid !!!
Good luck to all – STOP asking for emailed PDFs do some research in the previous pages and see RatedR posts they are all there.
@Shtilifan
Do u use R’s latest qbank?
I passed the exam today. Same experience with Rated R, Shtilifan and others. Review the VCE provided by Rated R and also new questions in digitaltut premium and you’ll be fine. Thanks digitaltut and efforts of RatedR. See you in 3 years!
Just finished the exam. It seems like a waterloo. barely Pass, but closely failed. 20 questions not covered, I guess by logic. Just like R mentioned Copp, TLOC, RED, distributed-list all are new. Strongly recommend who rely on memorized question people don’t take it now, take it later when the qbank is stable.
Was it difficult because the options were randomized and you had remembered them in the sequence?
I memorized around 600 questions. At first, it is painful, I take 2 weeks to do that.
Then, I practice the vce, it helps a lot.
Finally, it becomes a reflex action to have the answer when u see the questions.
For the new questions, it takes lots of time to analyse, and my answer is not gurrantee.
If u wanna sure pass, u can wait for the completed cover qbank later on.
@mrccnp
Did you pass as a result? Did you stay?
Were there any other questions than 520 questions?
Yes, I passed. But I think I am quite marginal.
Yes there should be 600 questions in R’s qbank.
However, it should be more in the real exam since 20 questions aare not covered in the qbank.
Are you saying that I should wait, even if I’m good with the current content on the site, including premium?
Here is the updated, with 2 more new questions :
https : // www . media fire . com / file / qb2cnp60dmtn177 / Encor_350-401_614Q_RatedR . pdf / file

@ratedR
so you got 20 more questions apart from this dump that youve posted?
@OB, its 2 not 20.
Digi tut updated 2 more on 5th, i have added them to V C E file and P D F fie
@blackjack
I passed. Yes, there should be 600+ questions in the latest qbank.
In the real exam, it will have 20 new questions, that is not covered in the qbank.
Please where there practicals?
Anyone, should one prepare for practicals?
Sat for the exam yesterday and the official exam report was not received yet. But in the preliminary score report, it says “Pass”.
Approx. 25 new questions. Some of them are below as I remember….
1). What are the CISCO TrustSec Main Components?
ASA and Firepower, xxx and Identity Service Engine, Network switches, routers and Firewalls, another option
Correct answer should be the one with “Identity Service Engine”
2). Engineer received response code 504 when accessing some blah blah server/application. what is the issue?
Authentication was unsuccessful, Username and password is wrong, Server was unavailable, Server timeout
Correct answer should be “Server timeout”
3). Route Leak Configuration –> I can’t remember the answers. But better you should read some articles on the configuration.
4). What is the CISCO WiFi6 compatible AP technology for small office branches?
Cisco new Generation WLAN, Mobile Controller or some similar answer (I remember the word “Mobile” only), XXXX, YYYY
I selected “Mobile xxxx”
5). Initial power is 10 DBm. Need to double the transmit power. What is the new power value in DBm
13, 14, 18, 20
Correct answer is “13” (Always remember when doubling the transmit power, it increases by 3DB And when reducing the transmit power to half of the original value, DBm value is reduced by 3 DB)
6). Chef and Saltstack Drag and Drop
Chef: Use Knife , Declarative
Saltstack: Use SSH , Procedural
7). Another question answer is “L2 Flooding”
8). which virtual MAC address does HSRP group 14 use?
Correct answer is the one ending with “0e”
Eg; 0000.0c07.ac0e
9). Eigrp and Ospf question
Correct answer is EIGRP external routes administrative distance is 170 and OSPF external routes administrative distance is 110
10). What’s TLOC role in SD-WAN?
I selected the answer similar to below…
TLOC is an entity which used to find the “next hop”
11). OSPF Prefix-list and Distribution-list syntax related: there is a /16 subnet , of which the OSPF should not learn that particular route, you have to chose 2 options, one for the prefix list and other is a distribute list. I chose the prefix list with 0.0.0.0/0 ge32 and distribute In.
12). configuration for vrf import into another one
13). SSO related question.
If you memorize answers I strongly suggest you at least read and understand the explanation provided in Digitaltut. Both Digitaltut and RatedR contents are valid. So, do both.
All the best guys!!! See you in 3 years. Cheers
QUESTION 4
A network engineer must configure NETCONF. After creating the configuration, the engineer gets output from
the command show line, but not from show running-config. Which command completes the configuration?
A. Device(config)# no netconf ssh acl 1
B. Device(config)# netconf max-sessions 100
C. Device(config)# netconf lock-time 500
D. Device(config)# netconf max-message 1000
Most places say A. Is there any proper reasoning? Some places say D
