I gave the exam today at Cisco Live.
A lot of new questions which are not even included in the premium membership which i paid. Too bad for our money.
@EncorDude, yupp that is what it means. There are roughly 800 questions in total. It can be done it just takes time. Make sure you are learning concepts along the way otherwise it will be tough. Will update with my exam experience tomorrow.
@worried, any specific topics the new questions were on? Taking exam tomorrow and worried. Thanks!
@Anon, looking forward to your post either tomorrow or the day after. Interested to learn how much has changed or if any. Good Luck. I’m set to renew mine next month.
Can any1 confirm what Worried says? Should we postponed our exams? @digitaltut pls advice us what to do.
Thank you
Digitaltut, can you please address what the user Worried has said? Is the premium membership content still valid?
@Worried, can u pls give us more details regarding how many new questions? Are the sim labs the same or sim labs are also changed?
Took the exam today. Passed. No score was given. Maybe that’ll come later. Got the EEM, OSPF, and BGP sims. Digitaltut still valid. I think this will be my last time taking Cisco exams. They’re too expensive, complicated, and not representative of my day to day at all.
Hello all,
when doing the lab sims, can I use tab and ?
Or I need to know the commands by heart?
Thanks in advance
Hi All,
I just passed my CCNP ENCOR exam. Thank you very much @Digitaltut.
how was your exam?@Anon
@Tim, were all the questions from this site ?
I had at least 25 questions out of 98 not included in this premium membership. Also, the port-channel lab was a bit different than in here.
I am sure Cisco has added many new questions.
The admins should renew the material.
I am disappointed because i paid the subscription only to find out that it is not fully covering the exam questions.
@Worried can u pls tell us if u remember how sound some of the new questions u had? Also if u r kind, pls tell us in the differences regarding port-channel lab.
Thank u for your feedback.
The port channel lab had to do with an additional port to one of two switches as well as changing from passive to active an one side so as it comes up. So, it was actually about two issues and not just one
As for the questions, most of them were from sd-fabric as well as automation questions. So pay attention generally and do not lean only on the questions in here.
Thank you very much for your update, @Worried .
For those complaining about new questions. Call out Cisco and not Digitaltut. These people do a fine job in providing great information when they GET IT. Stop being a nag.
@digitaltut, if u have some new information, even if they r not completed, pls upload them in premium version somewhere. It will hlp alot. Some of us have exams in the next days and can hlp alot to make an idee regarding on what to expect in the exam. Thx you.
@Blink182, i dont know if you remember but we are paying here. We do not ask anything for free.
As I am a paying member also. Who was asking for anything free?, certainly not in my post. I pay for the service and it is excellent. I speak to the whiners that expect everything right here and right now. A ridiculous expectation.
Passed today, there were few new questions, few question were kinda rephrased. 3 SIMs:
-OSPF with md5, although you are required to use network command
– EEM, same as here
-SPAN, top-talkers, IP SLA
Thanks digitaltut, so glad you exist
@LmonTree thank you very much for your update.
can u pls tell us how many new questions u get? More than 10? More than 20?
Do u remember any of these new question?
Thx u in advance
Passed the exam on 06/02. Questions are still valid. 5-6 new questions.
98 questions. 3 Labs
Labs were
OSPF
VRRP
BGP
Thanks digitut!
Passed Questions are still valid about 10 new questions.
3 Labs BGP OSPF VRRP.
Pass the big composite 10 times and practice part 4 – 10
Passed exam on Sunday… most of the questions are from here… some slight variations and wording might be little different but read carefully and you will be good…
I used the recommended preparation that’s on the Welcome Premium home page for this exam…
Labs i got glbp, hsrp and port channel
some slight variations but if you understand the simulations here and have hands on experience you will be fine… if you get stumped, check the configurations on the other switches or routers … might help to refresh your mind…
good luck to all…
Was super worried going in with everyone talking about the “new questions” I am here to tell you, if you study the questions on this site and take the explanations and study those too you will pass. I scored over 90% in each category doing just that. There were about 5 totally new questions, but if you understood the topics, they were easy. There were also about 5 rephrased questions I.e. different VLAN or IPs but the question was asking the same thing. I got BGP, OSPF and EEM sim. Exact same as here, though BGP lab only allowed changes to be made on R2 meaning the as-override command was needed on both neighbor IPs instead of the allowas-in command listed on this site. Haven’t gotten my total score yet but assume I am in the mid 900s/1025. If you can pass composite quiz 10+ times, study the labs and review each section at least twice you are GUARANTEED to pass. Sleep good knowing we have this resource. Thank you @digitaltut see you in 2.5 years.
Hello,
Are there currently SIMs in the exam, where can I find them in this forum? Thank you.
Do tou know the reason aby the result ste not given immediately after test end? And when we may expect the result in Pearson web page ? IS IT 72 hours since the test guaranteed. I got my result after test with the PENDING status 2 days Ago and still waiting for the final.
Do you know the reason why the results are not given immediately after finished test? And when we may expect the result in Pearson web page ? Is this 72 hours since the test dome, guaranteed? I got my result after test with the PENDING status 2 days ago and still waiting for the final results.
@Century i had the same issue. You may enter the pearson vue and go to “schedule exam”. There you can see your exam and the result.
Try it and tell us the result.
Hello guys. About 5-10 new questions out of 98. Also, 3 labs (glbp, port-channel,netflow where you have just to enable it on interface with “ip flow ingress”). All other questions exist here.
@RUJ @BBB @AAA @Anon @Century @Anonymous,
Where did you get your materials? Do i need to sign up here as a premium to get those? Thanks in advance!
@RUJ @BBB @AAA @Anon @Century @Anonymous,
and Congrats btw to all. Cheers!
Passed Yesterday,
98 questions, more than 10 were new, 3 SIMs:
1 OSPF (configuration requirements: 2 routers, area O, ospf process, configure OSPF without using the “network”, no DR/BDR election => “ip ospf network point-to-point”, Lo0 )
2 VRRP (configuration requirements: group VRRP, ip virtual ip address, hello timers)
3 Monitoring Services:
SPAN (configuration requirements: source interface (vlan), session number, destination interface (eth), transmitted traffic)
IP SLA (configuration requirements: ICMP Echo, Destination IP, source-ip, threshold, timeout, frequency)
flow-top-talkers (configuration requirements: top, sort-by, cache-timeout, outbound NetFlow => “ip flow egress” on interface)
Additional information:
questions are from both sections: New ENCOR and Technology (learning from the New ENCOR section, unfortunately, is not enough)
It is possible to use “TAB” and “?” on the CLI
Thanks Digitaltut!
@RUJ @BBB @AAA @Anon @Century @Anonymous,
Congrats. Cheers!
@k00j @Nickname
You have to pay to see a majority of the information including sim guides.
Thanks @Paid! Have you taken the exam already? how was it? Did the majority of questions came from the guides here (being a premium member)?
Got my exam today. Around 10 new questions, vrrp nat acl tacacs. Nothing special, if you study and prepare yourself not just reading questions here then you will be fine. Labs were super easy – hsrp, netflow, archive and lacp. Thanks digitaltut for help.

Hi do you know where I can find dumps for ENSLD Exam 300-420? I already done the ENCORE exam yesterday and pass the exam. Thanks @digitaltut
I hope everyone is well, I managed to pass my exam on 02/6 I had 3 simulators (Simple OSPF like the one here, OSPF authenticated like the one here and the EEM) I got many new questions between 5 to 10 I don’t remember very well related Most of the automation, the big composition is valid, I managed to do it more than 20 times, having a score between 85 to 97%, as well as studying all the parts from 4 to 10 and the topics that are apart, please @digitaltut update the question bank since there are many updates in the Exam and the new revisions are still valid
Can anyone confirm if there are indeed SIM Labs and since when is this change and where can you get those SIM Labs. Thanks!
@JC
It’s 98Q and 3 SIMs. The exam was changed the last week of December.
SIMs are part of the premium service in the upper right.
@kOOj
Yes. It’s on premium membership.
Someone recommends that you should study more, if the new ENCOR questions or all the topics
Passed yesterday, digitaltut still valid.
Solved Parts 4-10 2 times and Big Composite quizzes 5 times.
Thanks to digitaltut, good luck for everyone!
