Cisco Practice Test 350-401 ENCOR: Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies
De Cisco ENCOR oefentest traint u in de kerntechnologieën voor bedrijfsnetwerken.
Waarom zou ik het ENCOR examen doen?
Het Cisco 350-401 ENCOR examen toetst uw kennis en vaardigheden met betrekking tot het implementeren van core enterprise netwerk technologieën, waaronder dual stack (IPv4 en IPv6) architectuur, virtualisatie, infrastructuur, netwerk assurance, beveiliging en automatisering. De Cisco ENCOR certificering is gericht op mid-level netwerkengineers, netwerkbeheerders, netwerkondersteuningstechnici en helpdesktechnici en is, in termen van technologiegebieden, gekoppeld aan bedrijfsnetwerken en routing en switching.
De ENCOR oefentest bevat twee verschillende modi: de certificeringsmodus en de oefenmodus. In de certificeringsmodus kun je je kennis beoordelen en je zwakke punten ontdekken, in de oefenmodus kun je je richten op de gebieden die ontwikkeling nodig hebben.
