Current Exam Guide
Broadcom's current VCP-NV path uses exam 2V0-41.24. The official certification page lists 70 questions, 135 minutes, a scaled passing score of 300, and a $250 USD exam fee. The current exam guide uses standardized section headings, but only Sections 2, 4, and 5 publish testable objectives, so Broadcom does not provide official domain percentage weightings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exam do I take for VCP-NV in 2026?
Broadcom's current VCP-NV path points to VMware NSX 4.x Professional (2V0-41.24). The official certification page lists the exam as 70 questions in 135 minutes with a scaled passing score of 300 and a $250 USD exam fee.
Are VMware courses still required for VCP-NV?
No mandatory course is currently required for VCP-level certification. Broadcom's May 6, 2024 certification FAQ states that VCP, VCAP, and Specialist certifications no longer require mandatory training or another certification prerequisite, although Broadcom still lists recommended NSX courses for preparation.
What topics are actually tested on the current VCP-NV exam?
The current guide uses five standardized section headings, but published objectives appear only under VMware Products and Solutions, Installing/Configuring/Setup, and Administrative/Operational Tasks. In practice, that means you should expect NSX Manager, transport zones, segments, gateways, firewalling, routing, NAT, VPN, load balancing, IDS/IPS, federation, VPC, and day-two operations.
Does Broadcom publish official VCP-NV domain percentages?
No. Broadcom publishes the objective headings for 2V0-41.24 but does not provide official percentage weightings for the tested sections. A practical study approach is to prioritize the broadest published objective area first, which is VMware Products and Solutions, then Installing/Configuring/Setup, then Administrative/Operational Tasks.
How should I study for VCP-NV?
Build or borrow an NSX lab and spend time with logical segments, Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateways, DFW and gateway firewall policies, NAT, VPN, routing, load balancing, and IDS/IPS. Then practice operational tasks like backups, certificates, password recovery, logging, and policy changes until you can reason through scenario questions without relying on memorized UI steps.
Is VCP-NV worth it in 2026?
Yes for engineers working in VMware-heavy data center, private-cloud, or security environments. VCP-NV demonstrates practical NSX knowledge around microsegmentation, logical networking, gateway services, and platform operations, which remains valuable in roles spanning virtualization, network engineering, and cloud infrastructure.
