Master Core Enterprise Technologies with Cisco CCNP ENCOR 350-401

The Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR 350-401) is the cornerstone of the CCNP and CCIE Enterprise certifications, designed for professionals who manage the backbone of modern business infrastructure. In 2026, this course has evolved to version 1.2, aligning with the latest shifts in software-defined networking, advanced virtualization, and high-scale automation. You will move beyond the basics of routing and switching to master the integration of Cisco SD-WAN, SD-Access, and cloud-native networking. By focusing on both dual-stack (IPv4 and IPv6) architecture and security-first design, this training provides the technical authority to deploy and optimize enterprise-grade networks that are resilient, programmable, and future-ready.

Who is this for?

  • Mid-level Network Engineers seeking to achieve CCNP Enterprise or CCIE status.
  • Systems Administrators responsible for complex multi-site enterprise connectivity.
  • Network Architects designing software-defined infrastructures and cloud-hybrid networks.
  • Infrastructure Specialists looking to master automation and programmability via Python and APIs.

Ready for roles like

  • Senior Network Engineer
  • Enterprise Network Architect
  • Cloud Networking Specialist
  • Infrastructure Operations Lead
  • Network Automation Engineer

Course Curriculum

Enterprise Architecture & Design Principles +
Master the blueprint of modern networking. Explore Tier-2, Tier-3, and Fabric designs, and analyze the deployment models for WLAN, SD-WAN, and Cisco SD-Access. Learn to implement high availability through redundancy, FHRP, and Stateful Switchover (SSO) to ensure near-zero downtime for critical applications.
Advanced Virtualization & Overlay Technologies +
Deep dive into device and network virtualization. Learn to configure VRFs, GRE, and IPsec tunneling to create secure, isolated paths over shared infrastructure. This module also covers emerging concepts like LISP and VXLAN, providing the foundation for campus fabric and software-defined architectures.
Core Infrastructure: Routing & Switching +
Hone your skills in high-performance data forwarding. Master advanced OSPF and EIGRP configurations, implement eBGP for internet connectivity, and troubleshoot complex Layer 2 technologies like RSTP and MST. Learn to optimize paths using Policy-Based Routing (PBR) and advanced metric manipulation.
Network Assurance & Diagnostic Tools +
Ensure your network performs at its peak. Utilize diagnostic tools like conditional debugs, NetFlow, and IP SLA to gain deep visibility into traffic patterns. Explore Cisco DNA Center workflows for intent-based monitoring and learn to interpret telemetry data to proactively resolve bottlenecks.
Security & Automation: The Future of Networking +
Secure the enterprise while automating the mundane. Implement AAA, infrastructure hardening, and encrypted tunnels. Simultaneously, transition into programmability by learning Python basics, JSON formatting, and REST-based APIs (NETCONF/RESTCONF) to orchestrate configurations across hundreds of devices.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the prerequisites for the CCNP ENCOR 350-401 exam?
There are no formal prerequisites for the ENCOR exam. However, Cisco recommends 3 to 5 years of experience implementing enterprise networking solutions. Having a solid foundation equivalent to the CCNA is highly advised due to the depth of topics like BGP, OSPF, and automation.
How has the exam changed with the v1.2 update in 2026?
Effective March 19, 2026, the 350-401 ENCOR v1.2 update includes significant realignments. Wireless content has been streamlined to focus more on core architecture, while there is an increased emphasis on software-defined technologies (SD-WAN/SD-Access) and security-first infrastructure.
Does this course include hands-on technical labs?
Yes. This Skillsoft-aligned journey features over 30 intensive virtual labs. You will practice configuring OSPF adjacencies, implementing VRFs, managing SD-WAN controllers, and writing Python scripts to automate network changes, ensuring you are prepared for both the exam and real-world operations.
Is this the only exam I need for the CCNP Enterprise?
To earn your CCNP Enterprise, you must pass two exams: this core exam (ENCOR 350-401) and one concentration exam of your choice (such as ENARSI for advanced routing or ENSDWI for SD-WAN). Passing ENCOR also counts as the qualifying exam for the CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure lab.
