Mapped to every 200-301 objective

All six domains at exam weight. Your readiness score tracks each one, so you drill weakness instead of re-studying comfort zones.

PBQ-style interactive questions — included

The CCNA exam doesn't stop at multiple choice. Neither does this bank.

~50 PBQ-style interactive questions, built in the formats this cert actually tests:

  • Terminal sims (live show-command troubleshooting)
  • Config tables (ACLs, VLANs, static routes)
  • Command-order build lists
  • Topology labeling

Premium vendors sell interactive-question practice as a separate product. Here it's part of the $79 — not an add-on, not an upsell. Included.

A real question from the CCNA bank. Every one of the 2,650 works like this.

CCNA 200-301 Network Access

In a branch office, a Cisco IP phone connects to GigabitEthernet1/0/12 and a PC plugs into the phone's pass-through port. PC traffic must arrive in VLAN 10 and phone traffic in VLAN 110. Which interface configuration achieves this?

  1. A. switchport mode access / switchport access vlan 10 / switchport voice vlan 110 Correct
  2. B. switchport mode trunk / switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,110
  3. C. switchport mode access / switchport access vlan 10 / switchport trunk native vlan 110
  4. D. switchport mode access / switchport access vlan 110 / switchport voice vlan 10

Why A is correct

A phone-plus-PC port is configured as a normal access port for the data VLAN, then given one extra command, switchport voice vlan 110, that tells the switch to instruct the phone over CDP or LLDP to tag its voice frames with VLAN 110. The PC keeps sending untagged frames, which land in access VLAN 10.

Why the others are incorrect

Configuring switchport mode trunk with an allowed VLAN list makes the port an operational trunk, which is not how Cisco expects IP telephony ports to be built and would leave the PC's untagged traffic in the native VLAN rather than VLAN 10. Adding switchport trunk native vlan 110 to an access port has no effect, because native VLAN settings apply only when a port operates as a trunk. Assigning the access VLAN to 110 and the voice VLAN to 10 simply swaps the two, putting the PC in the voice VLAN and the phone in the data VLAN.

CCNA questions, answered straight

“Is this current for the v1.1 blueprint?”
Yes. Version 1.1 took effect on 20 August 2024 and added AI and machine learning in network operations plus Terraform to the automation domain. Most CCNA material still on the market was written against v1.0 and omits both. Every question here is mapped to the v1.1 objectives.
“How much subnetting practice is in here?”
148 questions on IPv4 addressing and subnetting alone, and every number in them is computed rather than typed, so the arithmetic is right by construction. Subnetting speed is where candidates actually run out of time on this exam, and there is no shortcut other than repetition.
“Do the interactive questions work like the exam's simulations?”
The terminal sims put you at a prompt where you enter show commands against realistic IOS output and reach a diagnosis, which is the same skill the exam's simlets test. They are not a device emulator, so they will not grade a configuration you type. For that, build a lab in Packet Tracer or CML alongside this.
“What score do I need to pass?”
Cisco does not publish the cut score for 200-301. The figure candidates most often quote is 825 out of 1000, but that is a community estimate rather than an official number. A practical readiness standard is consistently 85% or better on full-length timed practice with no domain below 80%.
“Are these real exam questions?”
No. Everything is original, written against Cisco's published objectives. No brain dumps, no risk to your certification — just honest practice that holds up on test day.
