20+ practice questions focused on OSPF — one of the most tested topics on the ENCOR 350-401 exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation so you learn why the right answer is correct.
Start OSPF PracticeDrag and drop the steps of deploying a CoPP policy on a Cisco IOS-XE router into the correct order, from first to last.
Explanation: Deploying CoPP requires first defining ACLs to classify traffic, then creating class maps, then a policy map, then applying it to the control plane, and finally verifying the policy.
Drag and drop the steps of OSPF summarization at ABR configuration steps into the correct order, from first to last.
Explanation: First, identify the subnets to summarize into a single prefix. Then, configure the area range command on the ABR under the OSPF process, specifying the area and the summary prefix. Optionally, set the 'not-advertise' keyword to suppress the summary. Verify the summary route in the OSPF database using 'show ip ospf summary-address'. Finally, check that the summary route appears in the routing table of other routers.
Drag and drop the steps of DHCP snooping operation on a Cisco switch into the correct order, from first to last.
Explanation: DHCP snooping begins by enabling the feature globally with 'ip dhcp snooping'. Then, the feature is enabled on specific VLANs. Trusted interfaces (typically uplinks to DHCP servers) are configured with 'ip dhcp snooping trust'. The switch then intercepts DHCP messages, building the DHCP snooping binding database from valid server responses. Finally, any DHCP server messages received on untrusted interfaces are dropped to prevent rogue server attacks.
Drag and drop the steps of YANG data model traversal for interface stats into the correct order, from first to last.
Explanation: The process starts with identifying the YANG module, then navigating the tree to the interface container, retrieving statistics, and optionally filtering or using NETCONF/RESTCONF.
Drag and drop the steps of using a Python REST API call to retrieve device configuration via Cisco DNA Center into the correct order, from first to last.
Explanation: The process begins with authenticating to the DNA Center API to obtain a token. Then, the device UUID is retrieved using a GET request to the device list endpoint. Next, a GET request is sent to fetch the running configuration for that device. The JSON response is parsed to extract the configuration text. Finally, the configuration is saved to a local file.

Practice all OSPF questions1. Baseline your knowledge
Start with 10 questions to gauge your current understanding of OSPF. This tells you whether you need a concept refresher or just practice.
2. Review every explanation
For each question — right or wrong — read the full explanation. Understanding why an answer is correct is more valuable than knowing the answer itself.
3. Focus on exam traps
OSPF questions on the 350-401 frequently use trap wording. Look for subtle differences in answers that test your precision, not just general knowledge.
4. Reach 80% consistently
Do repeated sessions until you score 80%+ three times in a row. Then move to mixed-mode practice to test cross-topic recall under realistic conditions.
The exact number varies per candidate. OSPF is tested as part of the ENCOR 350-401 blueprint. Practicing with targeted OSPF questions ensures you can handle any format or difficulty that appears.
Yes. Courseiva provides free 350-401 practice questions across all exam topics and domains. The platform includes topic-based practice, mock exams, missed-question review, bookmarked questions, and readiness tracking — no account required.
Difficulty is subjective, but OSPF is a high-priority exam concept tested in multiple ways — direct recall, scenario analysis, and command-output interpretation. Consistent practice is the best way to build confidence.
