NVIDIA AI Networking Professional (NCP-AIN)

Independent training track aligned to the public exam blueprint. Reading, scenarios, interview questions and practice questions; original wording and original diagrams. Product names, defaults and software versions change often, so check the vendor documentation for your release before your exam. Where a detail could not be confirmed, the lesson labels it as an approximation.

The labs assume these basics. If they are new to you, finish the linked module first and come back.

  • CCNA-level routing, BGP basics and VXLAN basics
    The Spectrum-X modules use eBGP, BGP unnumbered, VRFs and VXLAN with EVPN without re-teaching them from zero. If those words are new, finish a routing and data center track first. Linked modules keep their own access and progress and are not part of this track purchase.
  • Recommended: AI infrastructure basics (GPU servers, training versus inference, power and cooling)
    If AI clusters are new to you, take the AI Infrastructure and Operations Associate track first. Module ain-found then gives you the networking side: RDMA, GPUDirect and NCCL.

Log in to take the track exam

Your lab progress, attempts and certificate are saved to your account.

Read this before you start

  • Pass mark 80%. Score it or better and your certificate and badge are issued the moment you submit.
  • One more chance. If you do not pass, you can retake it straight away. That is 2 attempts in total.
  • 15-day cooldown. If the second attempt also falls short, the exam closes for 15 days. Then you get 2 fresh attempts.
  • 1 minute per question plus lab time. The timer never pauses.
  • It runs in fullscreen. Switching tabs or leaving fullscreen is a warning; on warning 3 the exam stops and is scored as it stands, and a stopped exam cannot earn the certificate.
  • Every attempt counts from the moment it starts, so close other tabs first.

Each live lab is worth 5 points of the total score.
