How Our Free CCNA Practice Test Works
Our free CCNA practice test draws questions at random from an original bank written in the style of the Cisco 200-301 CCNA v1.1 exam. Questions come from all six official domains, so every attempt is a fresh mix of fundamentals, switching, routing, services, security and automation.
Choose a mode before you start. Timed mode gives you 40 minutes for 30 questions, about 80 seconds each. Untimed mode removes the clock, and study mode shows the answer and explanation after each question. You can flag questions, move around with the navigator and answer with the number keys.
When you finish, you get your score, percentage, time used and a breakdown by domain. The review lists every question with your answer, the correct answer, an explanation and a “why” note on the underlying rule.

This CCNA practice test is online and free, with no account, no download and no paywall. It runs in any modern browser on a phone, tablet or computer. If you close the page halfway through, your progress is saved on your device so you can resume after a reload, and your last 10 results are kept so you can track progress over weeks.
CCNA Practice Test With Answers
Every question in this CCNA practice test comes with answers and a full explanation. Most items have one correct answer; a few are multiple-answer questions that tell you how many options to choose. The questions are original and written from Cisco’s published exam topics, not taken from the real exam.
What the Real Cisco CCNA Exam Covers
The real Cisco CCNA exam is a single 120-minute test, 200-301 CCNA v1.1, built around six domains. Cisco does not publish the question count or the passing score. Read the full format, registration and fee details in our Cisco CCNA exam guide.
CCNA Practice Questions by Topic
Our CCNA practice questions are grouped by topic using the same six domains as the official exam topics:
| Domain | Weight | Key topics |
|---|---|---|
| Network Fundamentals | 20% | Components, topologies, cabling, TCP/UDP, IPv4/IPv6 addressing and subnetting |
| Network Access | 20% | VLANs, trunking, EtherChannel, Rapid PVST+, wireless LAN architectures |
| IP Connectivity | 25% | Routing tables, static routing, OSPFv2, first-hop redundancy |
| IP Services | 10% | NAT, NTP, DHCP, DNS, SNMP, syslog, QoS, SSH, TFTP/FTP |
| Security Fundamentals | 15% | Device access control, ACLs, Layer 2 security, VPNs, wireless security |
| Automation and Programmability | 10% | Controller-based networking, REST APIs, JSON, configuration management, AI in network operations |
Introduction to Networks
Introduction to Networks topics sit mainly in the Network Fundamentals domain: the OSI and TCP/IP models, Ethernet, addressing and basic device setup. If you are coming from a Cisco Networking Academy course, a CCNA introduction to networks practice test is a natural first step, and our Network Fundamentals questions cover the same ground.
CCNA Subnetting Practice Questions
CCNA subnetting practice questions appear throughout the bank, because subnetting underpins both Network Fundamentals and IP Connectivity. Here is a typical example. How many usable host addresses are available in a /27 IPv4 subnet? The answer is 30: a /27 leaves 5 host bits, giving 32 addresses, minus the network and broadcast addresses.
CCNA Practice Lab Questions
CCNA practice lab questions on the real exam ask you to read or change device configurations in a simulated environment. Our test is multiple choice, so it cannot replace a lab, but some questions show a configuration or show-command output and ask what it means. Pair the practice test with hands-on work in Cisco Packet Tracer or real equipment.
How CCNA Practice Test Questions Are Scored
Cisco does not publish a passing score for the CCNA, so there is no official percentage to aim for. Our practice test reports your percentage and compares it with a 75% readiness benchmark, labeled as a benchmark on the results screen.
The higher benchmark reflects the exam’s reputation and builds a safety margin. If you clear 75% on several different random sets, you are in a strong position; if not, the domain breakdown shows where to study. A weak result in IP Connectivity or Network Access costs the most, because together they account for 45% of the exam.
Tips to Pass the CCNA 200-301 With Free Practice
You can pass the CCNA 200-301 with free practice if you use it consistently and learn from every explanation. Study one domain at a time, lab each configuration topic and take a CCNA practice test every week to measure progress. Plan your weeks with the study planner and count down to exam day with the exam countdown.
Take a Timed CCNA Mock Test Free
For a full CCNA mock test, free and timed, choose the full bank in timed mode and work straight through without pausing. The real exam does not let you go back to earlier questions, so practise answering each one fully before moving on rather than relying on flags.
CCNA Practice Questions and Answers
The value of CCNA practice questions and answers is in the review. After each attempt, read the explanation for every question, including the ones you got right. Write down port numbers, administrative distances and commands you missed, then make flashcards online and drill them daily. A printed CCNA practice test PDF can help with review on the go, but it cannot score you or change its questions.
CCNA Practice Test 2026 Updates
Our CCNA practice test for 2026 follows the 200-301 CCNA v1.1 exam topics, live since August 2024, including the newer automation content on AI in network operations. Paid tools such as Boson’s CCNA practice test are well known, and some candidates use them as a final check, but a free bank with explanations covers most of your practice needs.
Studying more than one track? Try the CompTIA Network+ practice test for vendor-neutral networking, the CompTIA Security+ practice test for security, or the AWS Cloud Practitioner practice exam for cloud basics.
CCNA Practice Test FAQ
What Is the CCNA Practice Test?
The CCNA practice test on this page is a free set of original, exam-style questions for the Cisco 200-301 CCNA v1.1 exam. Each session draws random questions from all six domains, scores your answers, shows a breakdown by domain and explains every answer, so you can see exactly where to focus your study.
How Many Questions Are on the CCNA Exam?
Cisco does not publish the number of questions on the CCNA exam, and the count can vary between forms. The exam lasts 120 minutes. Our practice test uses 30 questions in 40 minutes per session, about 80 seconds each, and you can also pick a 10-question drill or the full bank.
What Does the CCNA Exam Consist Of?
The CCNA exam is one 120-minute test, 200-301 CCNA v1.1, with six domains: Network Fundamentals, Network Access, IP Connectivity, IP Services, Security Fundamentals, and Automation and Programmability. It mixes multiple-choice, drag-and-drop and simulation-style questions on Cisco device configuration and troubleshooting.
How Do You Prepare for the CCNA Exam?
Study the six domains in order, lab every configuration topic and drill subnetting daily. Take a CCNA practice test each week, review every explanation and spend the next session on your weakest domain. Most beginners need two to four months of steady study to be ready.
Is CCNA for Beginners?
CCNA has no prerequisites and many beginners pass it, but it is a real step up from entry-level IT. It assumes you can work with binary, IP addressing and the command line. If our practice test feels overwhelming, start with networking basics and come back once subnetting feels comfortable.
