The simulators contain all recent and new version of the CCNP certification, and are continually adding new features and challenges. A key focus of the CCNP certification is now on security and Quality of Service (QoS), and this part of the simulators focuses on CCNP ONT which investigates QoS for routers and switches. It is based on the objectives of the CCNP certification, and also on the flow defined by the Cisco Academy. Overall there are more than 70 challenges including tests and Cisco labs.
