Matching questions give you two columns — concepts, commands, or protocols on the left, and their definitions or use-cases on the right. You drag each left item to its correct match. These appear on most certification exams and punish superficial memorisation.
Start Scenario PracticeDrag and drop each Netmiko device type on the left to its matching operating system on the right.
Explanation: cisco_ios is for classic IOS; cisco_nxos is for NX-OS; cisco_xr is for IOS-XR; cisco_xe is for IOS-XE.
Drag and drop each Python library on the left to its matching network use case on the right.
Explanation: Netmiko simplifies SSH to network devices; NAPALM provides multi-vendor abstraction; Nornir is task-based and parallel; Scrapli is async-focused; Paramiko is low-level SSH.
Drag and drop each NAPALM getter on the left to its matching returned data on the right.
Explanation: get_facts returns device facts like hostname and OS version, get_interfaces returns interface details, get_bgp_neighbors returns BGP neighbor information, get_lldp_neighbors returns LLDP neighbor data, and get_environment returns power and fan status.
Drag and drop each NETCONF operation on the left to its action on the right.
Explanation: Correct pairings: get retrieves running config and state data; get-config retrieves a specific datastore; edit-config modifies configuration; commit confirms a candidate configuration; lock prevents other sessions from modifying a datastore.
Drag and drop each DMVPN phase on the left to its matching NHRP operation type on the right.
Explanation: DMVPN has only three phases. Phase 1 uses NHRP for hub registration only; Phase 2 uses NHRP for spoke-to-spoke dynamic tunnel creation via resolution request/reply; Phase 3 uses NHRP with prefix-based spoke-to-spoke shortcut.

You drag each left item to its correct match. These appear on most certification exams and punish superficial memorisation. These appear throughout the 350-401 and require you to apply your knowledge, not just recall facts.
Cisco doesn't publish an exact breakdown, but scenario-based questions (especially exhibit and command-output formats) make up a significant portion of the 350-401. Practicing each scenario type ensures you're ready for any format.
