ENCOR 1.0 Architecture (15%)¶
Architecture is a describe and explain domain, with one interpret item (QoS). Expect conceptual multiple-choice and drag-and-drop questions that match components to roles or planes. You will not configure SD-WAN or SD-Access on this exam, but you must know which box does what.
| Objective | Verb | Page |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1 Design principles: 2-tier, 3-tier, fabric, cloud; HA with redundancy, FHRP, SSO | Explain | Design and High Availability |
| 1.2 Catalyst SD-WAN control and data plane elements, benefits and limitations | Explain | Catalyst SD-WAN |
| 1.3 SD-Access control and data plane elements, interoperating with traditional campus | Explain | SD-Access |
| 1.4 QoS configurations | Interpret | QoS |
Time budget: week 1 of the study plan for 1.1 to 1.3, QoS on the first two days of week 2.
When you finish, take the Architecture practice questions. Aim for 80% or better before moving on.
