Thank you for launching this dedicated group for the Red Hat Ansible for Network Automation course!
I'm looking forward to collaborating with fellow members, discussing relevant topics, and sharing best practices. This is a great opportunity to deepen our understanding of network automation using Ansible and to gain insights from the experiences of others. I'm also keen on providing feedback about the course and sharing my accomplishments as I progress through it. Excited to start this learning journey!

Thanks a lot for starting the thread @Syed 

I plan to take the exam(EX457) in Jan.

Do we know how many questions there will be? Do we have to prepare for vendor-specific modules? (like Cisco etc)

Hello @kamlendu !

Thanks for reaching out!

Number of exam questions varies per exam and it cannot be revealed due to the NDA. 

You can refer the exam objectives here for EX457 and prepare accordingly:
