350-601 DCCOR practice examsIn development
Cisco Certified Network Professional Data Center
The Cisco data centre stack end to end: the east-west traffic that drove the spine-leaf fabric with equal hop counts, NX-OS with explicit features and vPC dual-homing both links forwarding, and the VXLAN EVPN fabric of routed underlay, VXLAN overlay and BGP control plane; then UCS compute abstracting server identity into a service profile applied to any hardware, Fibre Channel zoning and VSANs, FCoE and iSCSI storage, the ACI intent-based fabric with endpoint groups and whitelist contracts programmed by the APIC, and the API-driven automation that scale demands.
What you get
Papers are cut from the bank and weighted like the real exam, and no question appears in two of them. Every wrong answer comes back on later days until you have it right.
