What the exam tests

Exam domains and official weightings

The percentage is the exam weighting; the bar is how many verified questions we hold there, so a short bar is where our bank is thin.

6domains
  • Architecture15%
    18 verified
  • Virtualization10%
    12 verified
  • Infrastructure30%
    36 verified
  • Network Assurance10%
    12 verified
  • Security20%
    24 verified
  • Automation and Artificial Intelligence15%
    18 verified

Where to focus: Infrastructure is 30 percent of ENCOR, the largest domain by far, and automation plus assurance add another 25. Routing and switching depth is necessary but not sufficient; budget real time for the programmability content.

What the exam actually asks you to do

Multiple choice and multiple response, drag-and-drop, simlets, and full simulations where you configure Cisco device software in the exam, the same format as CCNA but at professional depth.

Where CCNP Enterprise fits

Cisco network track

Cisco removed formal prerequisites, so each step is a recommendation. CCNP needs a core exam plus one concentration; CCIE adds a hands-on lab.

Frequently asked questions

How many exams does CCNP Enterprise take?

Two. You pass the 350-401 ENCOR core exam, then one concentration exam of your choice (for example 300-410 ENARSI for advanced routing). ENCOR alone does not earn the certification, though it does count toward CCIE Enterprise.

Is there a prerequisite for CCNP Enterprise?

No formal prerequisite. Cisco removed them, so you can sit ENCOR without holding CCNA. In practice ENCOR assumes CCNA-level fluency and then goes well beyond it, so most candidates hold CCNA or the equivalent experience first.

How hard is the ENCOR exam?

It is broad and deep: 120 minutes across architecture, virtualization, a 30 percent infrastructure domain, network assurance, security, and automation. The infrastructure and automation weighting means you cannot pass on routing and switching alone.

Does ENCOR expire if I do not take the concentration exam?

You have three years from passing ENCOR to complete a concentration exam. Each Cisco exam result is valid for three years.
