Official blueprint
The N10-009 exam covers 5 domains. Each domain has a defined weight — the percentage of exam questions it contributes. Courseiva has 531 practice questions mapped across these objectives.
Click any objective to see practice questions for that domain.
Networking Concepts is 23% of N10-009, covering OSI models, IPv4/IPv6 addressing, switching, routing, wireless, and cloud. Expect drag-and-drop, multiple-choice, and performance-based questions where you subnet, select ports, or identify a topology. You must apply concepts, not just recall definitions.
107 practice questions available
This domain covers deploying and configuring wired and wireless networks using switching, routing, and wireless technologies. For N10-009, you must know VLANs, STP, EtherChannel, OSPF, NAT, DHCP, DNS, and wireless standards. Exam questions present configuration scenarios and ask you to select the correct command, protocol, or setting to meet a requirement.
106 practice questions available
Network Operations is 19% of N10-009 and covers the day-to-day running of a network: documentation and diagrams, monitoring and SNMP, configuration and change management, backups, remote access, and disaster recovery. Expect scenario questions asking which tool, command, or process fits a described operational situation rather than simple recall.
105 practice questions available
Network Security is 14% of the CompTIA Network+ N10-009 exam. It covers hardening wired and wireless networks, implementing segmentation and access control, and applying defense-in-depth. Expect scenario questions where you select the correct security control, protocol, or placement for a given threat, and identify misconfigurations in ACLs, VLANs, or wireless authentication settings.
106 practice questions available
Network Troubleshooting is 24% of Network+ N10-009 and covers a seven-step methodology plus the tools to execute it. The exam presents scenario-based questions: given symptoms, logs, or output from ping, traceroute, ipconfig, dig, or a packet capture, you identify the fault layer, pick the next diagnostic step, and select the fix.
107 practice questions available
Start with the highest-weight domain — that's where most of your exam questions will come from. Work through each objective's practice questions until you can answer at least 85% correctly. Return to lower-weight domains last, and use the full practice test to test cross-domain recall.
