Three of the 703 questions in this pack

Question 1

Which functions of an SDN architecture require southbound APIs to enable communication?

  1. SDN controller and the network elements
  2. management console and the SDN controller
  3. management console and the cloud
  4. SDN controller and the cloud
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. SDN controller and the network elements

Southbound APIs in SDN architecture enable communication between the SDN controller and network elements (switches, routers, and other forwarding devices). These APIs allow the controller to program and manage the data plane devices. The management console communicates with the controller via northbound APIs, not southbound APIs, making option B incorrect.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Management console uses northbound APIs, not southbound APIs, to communicate with the controller.
  • C. This describes management console to cloud communication, which does not involve southbound APIs.
  • D. SDN controller to cloud communication does not define the purpose of southbound APIs.

Question 2

The main function of northbound APIs in the SDN architecture is to enable communication between which two areas of a network?

  1. SDN controller and the cloud
  2. management console and the SDN controller
  3. management console and the cloud
  4. SDN controller and the management solution ✅Correct Answer: B, management console and the SDN controller Northbound APIs sit above the controller and carry traffic between the management console (the application/management layer) and the SDN controller. The console uses them to request services, push policy intent, and read network state, while the controller programs the devices below it through southbound APIs.

Answer and explanation for question 2

Question 3

What is a feature of the open platform capabilities of Cisco DNA Center?

  1. application adapters
  2. domain integration
  3. intent-based APIs
  4. automation adapters
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. intent-based APIs

Intent-based APIs are a core feature of Cisco DNA Center's open platform capabilities. These APIs allow external systems and applications to programmatically interact with DNA Center using intent-based networking concepts rather than device-level configuration. This enables integration with third-party tools and custom automation.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Application adapters are not a standard open platform capability feature of DNA Center.
  • B. Domain integration is not the primary feature of DNA Center's open platform capabilities.
  • D. Automation adapters are not the correct terminology for DNA Center's open platform features.

What makes the SCOR hard

The 350-701 SCOR is not a straightforward multiple choice exam: it includes drag-and-drop, fill-in-the-blank and scenario-based questions across network security, cloud security, endpoint protection and more, all inside 120 minutes. It is also the core qualifying exam for both CCNP Security and CCIE Security, so failing it stalls both paths.

Heads up on the blueprint change: SCOR moved to v2.0 on 27 August 2026, and the last day to test on v1.1 was 26 August 2026. The old Content Security domain is gone, replaced by Secure Service Edge, and v2.0 adds coverage of AI and LLM vulnerabilities, post-quantum cryptography, Splunk and Cisco Secure Access. Cisco also retired the 300-730 SVPN concentration exam on 26 August 2026 and pushed its VPN content into SCOR and SNCF, so study material written for v1.1 is now testing the wrong balance.

703 practice questions for the 350-701 SCOR, the largest bank available anywhere, so the question formats and scenario framing are familiar before test day.
