Frequently asked questions

  • ENSLD is a Cisco specialization exam for enterprise network design. It teaches design principles for campus, WAN, SD-WAN, and security architectures. It is relevant for network architects who plan scalable, resilient, and secure enterprise networks.
  • The exam is part of the Cisco Certified Network Professional Enterprise certification. It can be counted as a concentration exam for Cisco CCNP Enterprise and as a building block for CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure.
  • A solid knowledge of routing, switching, and enterprise architectures is essential for effective learning. Practical experience with OSPF, BGP, VLANs, VPNs, and a basic understanding of SD-WAN and security design are recommended.
  • The focus is on design methodology, campus and WAN architecture, SD Access, SD-WAN, QoS, multicast, and security integration. High availability, scalability, and network automation in the enterprise environment are also covered.
  • The focus is on design decisions and understanding architecture rather than configuration details. Best practices, trade-offs, and decision-making logic for real enterprise networks are taught.
  • ENSLD focuses on network design, while ENCOR covers implementation and operation. ENSLD evaluates architectural expertise, while ENCOR tests configuration, troubleshooting, and core technologies.
  • This specialization confirms architectural expertise in the enterprise environment. It strengthens profiles for positions such as network architect, senior network engineer, or presales engineer and increases competitiveness in complex infrastructure projects.
  • The focus is on targeted exam preparation. Blueprint topics, typical questions, and design scenarios are covered. Structured content facilitates the understanding of complex architectural decisions and increases the probability of passing the exam.
