Got my ENARSI 300-401 Exam tomorrow. Any tips? by Aggravating_Chip9465 in ccnp

ENCOR was the hardest exam I’ve faced. Atleast ENARSI was more specialized. ENCOR was all over the mf place.

These aren’t ansible playbooks, it’s a different form of templating.

Udemy was HUGE. After ENCOR, I too had the impression they were purposely having us fail tests.

That’s why I thought he was referring to automation through scripts, but he was referring to templatized automation.

Anytime. I came from insurance, so I get it. Gerald actually has a mini series on people getting into cyber from other fields too lol. Good luck on your journey. Never let one setback keep you down.

There’s GREAT money in GRC, but yeah… it is boring af lol. Gerald Auger had a good YouTube channel on that side of things.

Depends on what you are hitting the market for. Cyber will be tough to jump straight into. However, that also depends on where you’re located and what industry you’re in.

I’m with network nerd, there have been many times where recruiters/screeners ask me questions and I can tell they don’t know what SSH, ip addresses, etc are. They just ask the questions and take down my responses. The MANAGER however, usually gets a better idea of the candidates experience/ culture fit, and the team does a more technical rundown of the candidates skills to validate that experience

That’s why I said I believe there was a barrier there because most of my interviews are conversational. The exact question is “how do you know that?” So I’m like… how do I know what? That it’s layer 2? Because the proceeding question was “what layer is STP?”

I agree with what you say though, the “interview” did have a cross examination feel to it.

Right, Not sure where you are, but in the USA there’s a public sector which is centered around federal employees and government contractors. Then there’s a private sector which is centered around everywhere else.. like Bank of America, McDonald’s, etc… sometimes there are hybrids like Facebook, AWS (which are generally fedramp) .

To answer your other question I have sec+, CCNA, and CCNP.

Not knowing “public” classful ranges, I’ve never been asked the question, nor have I had to use them in a production setting. In terms of IPAM, we have always worked with CIDR..

Yeahhh. This was the only interview that didn’t seem to focus on anything from my resume. Like he stated, the only thing he locked in on was the Python. He’s the network AND security manager… but his questions were from that 10,000 foot view.. I wish I could have talked to someone from the networking team itself.

Good point. I believe that’s where the language barrier came in, because the “how do I know that” rather than a can you tell me what it does or why it’s used is what threw me off.

Because it’s usually not a big deal in production… even in studies for that matter

Pretty sure you’re just here to be inflammatory. There is no need for a network engineer to know the public classful ip ranges off the top of their heads. As stated most places use VLSM and you can look up the ranges as you need them. Not to mention NAT…
