⚡ Quick Facts
Quick Answer: Exam 200-901 is now <strong>CCNAAUTO, Automating Networks Using Cisco Platforms v1.1</strong>, and it leads to CCNA Automation rather than the old DevNet Associate. The exam number, the 120-minute duration and all six domain weights are unchanged. It costs $300 USD, and Cisco publishes neither an item count nor a passing score. The domain most often missed is Network Fundamentals at 15% - this is an automation exam that still expects you to read a topology. ExamCert has 600+ practice questions.
