Obtaining the HCIE certificate is not an easy thing. First of all, we need to know what the HCIE-Datacom certification exam is about. The exam is divided into two parts, a written exam and a lab. In addition, the written exam fee is 300 US dollars, and the lab exam fee is 8,000 RMB. For an ordinary family, it is also a considerable expense!
Therefore, it is necessary for us to know how to pass these two exams at one time. I suggest that you should be fully prepared when preparing for the HCIE exam. Not only should you invest a lot of time, but you should also have the determination to pass the exam and a clear study plan.
HCIE written examination：
The H12-891 written test is conducted on a computer. There are 60 questions in total, with a full score of 1,000 points and a passing score of 600 points. The test lasts 90 minutes. The test questions include: single-choice questions, multiple-choice questions, judgment questions, drag-and-drop questions, and fill-in-the-blank questions. The test content involves 5 major modules: advanced routing switch technology, campus network planning and deployment, wide area interconnection network planning and deployment, wide area bearer network planning and deployment, and network programming and automation. Candidates need to have a deep understanding of all aspects of network technology in order to stand out in this theoretical knowledge challenge.
How to pass the written test in one go? You need to do practice questions to master the theoretical knowledge. If you need Dumps, please contact us via WhatsApp: +63 975 072 4648
Where to take the exam？
In fact, many students are concerned about the issue of appointment. The written examinations for Huawei certification are held at VUE examination centers. VUE examination centers are officially authorized by Huawei and are distributed in most cities in China. Candidates can log in to the website of VUE examination center, select the nearest examination center, register for the examination, and choose the examination date and time (optional). As long as there are vacancies at the examination center, you can make an appointment for the examination.

HCIE LAB experimental examination
After passing the written test, candidates will face a more severe challenge within 18 months - the experimental test. This test lasts for 8 hours. Candidates need to complete tasks such as configuration and verification of network equipment and optimization of network solutions within a limited time. Only those candidates who have a solid theoretical foundation and have accumulated rich practical experience can succeed in this ultimate test of practical ability.
Where can I take the lab exam?
Only those candidates who have a solid theoretical foundation and have accumulated rich practical experience can succeed in this ultimate test of practical ability. At present, Huawei's HCIE certification international test centers are mainly concentrated in a few countries and regions, such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Russia, Canada, the United States, South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, etc. However, please note that whether these test centers provide HCIE-Datacom test services, as well as the specific test arrangements and procedures, need to be confirmed directly with Huawei officials or relevant test centers. Candidates can make appointments in advance according to their own learning progress. Except for statutory holidays, the test centers are basically open every day.
Examination format and examination modules
The HCIE-Datacom LAB exam consists of four modules: traditional campus network transformation and upgrade, cloud management campus and branch Internet deployment, wide area bearer network construction, and network automation.
Sec1 Command line operation part
This part is relatively simple. There are 7 requirements, which are the application technologies we learned in class. Most of them are HCIP technical points. The configuration of each requirement is related but not much. Just follow the requirements of the question. Students can practice in the 1:1 environment of the exam room we provide, or practice in the local installation environment.
Sec2 Software Defined Network (SDN)
Candidates need to log in to the SDN management platform through the web page on the designated device and push configuration content to the managed devices. The operation is also quite simple, that is, to operate the content that originally needed to be operated on the command line on the controller (visual interface). It is also very easy to understand. You can practice in the 1:1 simulation environment of the examination room we provide, or learn the relevant SDN technologies in our system course to understand the Sec2 part.
Sec3 Wide Area Bearer Network Construction (WAN)
This step is relatively simple. You only need to follow the requirements. Students can practice in the 1:1 environment of the examination room we provide or deploy practice in eNSP.
Sec4 Programming Automation (Python)
This part can be practiced by building PyCharm Community Edition 2022.3 on your local machine. The code is about 100 lines and the code can be completed, so the code part is not difficult.
Essay Questions
The first three modules of the above four modules have essay questions. We will provide essay questions, and the techniques used in the essay questions will also have corresponding screen recordings.
Some people may wonder if they can practice the experiment without a rack. This is obviously not possible. For example, the sec2 part is configured by iMaster-NCE, so this part must be practiced in an environment. Secondly, the access authentication part of sec1 also requires a real machine (the simulator does not support access authentication configuration) to link with the AAA server to achieve the verification effect.

First of all, when practicing normally, it is necessary to have a practice environment that is one-to-one with the exam room. Secondly, we must keep up with the configuration speed. It is said that the exam time is 480 minutes, but the time during the exam is also quite tight, because there are a lot of IE configurations. I believe that those who have taken the exam will realize that HCIE-Datacom configurations are quite a lot, so when practicing, you should pay attention to some tips.
First point: First of all, you need to have an overall understanding of the topology and a comprehensive understanding of the requirements. This way you can know the purpose of this experiment. For example, if the campus network needs to be expanded and upgraded, then you can know where the reliability of the network is required; you need to have an overall understanding of the topology, so that you can know what the framework of the entire experiment is, and it will also be beneficial for your subsequent practice.
Second point: Develop the habit of summarizing configuration commands during practice to improve configuration efficiency. Because many people always forget to drop commands on a certain device during practice, you need to summarize them constantly during practice to ensure that no device configuration commands are missed. Also, when you click on a certain device, if the following requirements require configuration on this device, summarize the configuration commands on this device. The purpose is to improve configuration efficiency, and a device is only opened once.
The third point: Having your own configuration rhythm can improve configuration efficiency. When many people are typing in configurations, after typing in one requirement, they don’t know which device to type in when they go to type in another requirement, or when they configure a requirement, they don’t know what to configure next, so you need to have your own configuration rhythm. For example, when practicing sec1, configure from the access layer equipment, aggregation layer equipment, and core layer equipment levels; when configuring a certain device, you can practice by configuring the second layer, then the third layer, and then the interface in this orderly configuration order to avoid wasting too much time.
Summary: Improve configuration accuracy while improving configuration efficiency, so that errors in the exam room can be promptly checked out
