,Research Alignment - September 2026
WGU course alignment. The September 2026 WGU Institutional Catalog lists D416 DevNet Fundamentals
(ITEC 3401) as a 6-CU course in the B.S. Cloud and Network Engineering - Cisco program. The catalog
describes D416 as teaching automation and deployment of Cisco network solutions, including APIs,
scripting, Python programming, and software version control.
Cisco blueprint alignment. Cisco's current public blueprint for Automating Networks Using Cisco
Platforms v1.1 (200-901 CCNAAUTO) defines six domains: 15% Software Development and Design, 20%
Understanding and Using APIs, 15% Cisco Platforms and Development, 15% Application Deployment and
Security, 20% Infrastructure and Automation, and 15% Network Fundamentals. Cisco describes the
certification exam as 120 minutes.
Hands-on emphasis. Cisco's 2026 training outline cross-checks practical skills such as parsing data with
Python, Git, HTTP inspection and troubleshooting, API use with Python, Webex API use, topology
interpretation, NETCONF, Bash, infrastructure automation workflows, Python unit testing, Dockerfile
interpretation, Docker commands, and parameter-sanitization security concepts.
Exam-mechanics note. Cisco does not publish live questions or a fixed public question count. Recent 2026
WGU community reports describe multiple-choice/multiple-response, drag-and-drop or code-ordering
mechanics, and lab-style tasks. Those reports are anecdotal, so V2 uses the public objectives and similar
skills without reproducing protected items.
How V2 Differs from V1
All 150 stems are newly written for V2; the bank emphasizes scenarios and troubleshooting rather than
definition-only recall.
Several questions use original exhibits for API documentation, network-path diagnosis, CI/CD reasoning,
and sequence-diagram interpretation.
API and Infrastructure/Automation remain the two largest domains at 20% each, matching Cisco's
published weighting.
Use V2 after V1 to test transfer of knowledge. Avoid memorizing answer letters; explain each rationale
in your own words.
