Certification coverage

Cisco CCNA 200-301 v1.1

Subnetica covers 76.1% of the Cisco CCNA 200-301 v1.1 blueprint by exam weight - 39 of 53 published objectives. Of the objectives this environment can express at all, it covers 100%.

Coverage is not a claim that Subnetica replaces official certification training. Remaining objectives are shown below, including areas such as wireless equipment, physical media, and other capabilities that cannot be faithfully simulated in a virtual network.

1.0 Network Fundamentals

20% of the exam · 11 of 13 objectives covered

    Covered
    Conceptual✓ Lesson- Quiz- Lab✓ Review
  • 1.4

    Identify interface and cable issues (collisions, errors, duplex/speed)

    Out of scope

    Physical media and cabling

    Cabling, connectors and transceivers are physical, and Subnetica's networks are not. Faults that live in the wire - duplex and speed mismatches, errors, collisions - cannot be staged here. Cabling concepts are taught in a lesson; the hands-on half needs real hardware.

    Describe wireless principles

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Covered
    Full✓ Lesson✓ Quiz✓ Lab✓ Review
  • 2.6

    Describe Cisco Wireless Architectures and AP modes

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Subnetica's networks are wired. There is no radio to configure, no access point or controller to manage, and no signal behaviour to observe, so wireless is not taught here - study it elsewhere.

  • 2.7

    Describe physical infrastructure connections of WLAN components

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Subnetica's networks are wired. There is no radio to configure, no access point or controller to manage, and no signal behaviour to observe, so wireless is not taught here - study it elsewhere.

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Subnetica's networks are wired. There is no radio to configure, no access point or controller to manage, and no signal behaviour to observe, so wireless is not taught here - study it elsewhere.

    Covered
    Full✓ Lesson✓ Quiz✓ Lab✓ Review
  • 4.2

    Configure and verify NTP operating in client and server mode

    Out of scope

    Time synchronisation

    Every device in a Subnetica lab already agrees on the time, so there is no clock drift to correct and nothing an NTP exercise could meaningfully fix.

  • 4.3

    Explain the role of DHCP and DNS within the network

    Covered
    Full✓ Lesson✓ Quiz✓ Lab✓ Review
  • 4.4

    Explain the function of SNMP in network operations

  • 4.7

    Explain the forwarding per-hop behavior (PHB) for QoS

    Out of scope

    Quality of service

    Subnetica's networks do not carry enough traffic to congest, so prioritising one kind of traffic over another has no observable effect to configure against or verify.

  • 4.8

    Configure network devices for remote access using SSH

    Covered
    Full✓ Lesson✓ Quiz✓ Lab✓ Review
  • 4.9

    Site-to-site and remote-access VPNs cannot be built or verified in Subnetica's environment.

  • 5.6

    Configure and verify access control lists

    Covered
    Full✓ Lesson✓ Quiz✓ Lab✓ Review
  • 5.7

    Configure and verify Layer 2 security features (DHCP snooping, dynamic ARP inspection, port security)

    Out of scope

    Switch port security features

    Port security, DHCP snooping and dynamic ARP inspection are features of switch hardware. Subnetica's switches do not implement them, so there is nothing to enable or to violate.

  • 5.8

    Compare authentication, authorization, and accounting concepts

    Out of scope

    Centralised authentication

    There is no RADIUS or TACACS+ server in a Subnetica lab, so centralised authentication, authorisation and accounting cannot be configured against one.

  • 5.9

    Describe wireless security protocols (WPA, WPA2, WPA3)

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Subnetica's networks are wired. There is no radio to configure, no access point or controller to manage, and no signal behaviour to observe, so wireless is not taught here - study it elsewhere.

  • 5.10

    Configure and verify WLAN within the GUI using WPA2 PSK

    Out of scope

    Wireless networking

    Subnetica's networks are wired. There is no radio to configure, no access point or controller to manage, and no signal behaviour to observe, so wireless is not taught here - study it elsewhere.

Methodology. Coverage is computed by mapping Subnetica's lessons, quizzes and lab templates onto the objective identifiers published by the vendor at https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/s/ccna-exam-topics. Only content reachable from a published learning path counts. An objective is described as fully covered only where a lesson, a graded quiz and a hands-on lab all exist for it. Objective identifiers and titles are referenced for identification only; no vendor study material is reproduced.
