Each question shows the correct answer and an explanation of why it is right
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of Containers?
some of the characteristics of containers are:
Resistant and strong
Designed to facilitate transport of goods
Easy for stuffing or destuffing
Fitted with facilities for easy handling
Airtight and water-resistant
Predictable and repeatable
Self-contained and isolated
Ever-changing is not a characteristic of containers. Containers are designed to be predictable, repeatable, and self-contained. They are isolated from the underlying infrastructure and provide a consistent environment for applications to run in, regardless of the host OS.
Which of the following Kafka components represents a stream of messages of a particular category?
a Kafka topic is a channel where publishers (producers) publish data and where subscribers (consumers) receive data. A topic represents a stream of messages of a particular category.
In Kafka, a topic represents a stream of messages of a particular category or type. Producers publish messages to a specific topic, and consumers subscribe to and read messages from topics. Brokers are responsible for managing topics and ensuring that messages are distributed efficiently across the cluster.
Which of the following data encoding/decoding formats is NOT supported by the Workflow Manager?
Workflow Manager is a tool that allows users to design and execute workflows for network automation using NSP actions and expression functions. The Workflow Manager supports data encoding/decoding formats such asJSON,CSV,XMLandBase64. However, it does not supportBER(Basic Encoding Rules), which is a format used for encoding data structures for transmission or storage.
Which of the following statements about an intent is FALSE?
According to the Nokia NSP Intent Manager Application Help2, an intent has the following characteristics:
It is stored in the database as the source of truth.
It is an instance of an intent type, which defines the structure and logic of an intent.
It can be created and deleted through RESTCONF API or through the Intent Manager GUI.
It can involve services, nodes, links, paths, or any other network elements.
Which of the following is the master configuration that is synchronized with the network configuration and is stored in the database as the source of truth?
An Intent is the master configuration that is synchronized with the network configuration and is stored in the database as the source of truth. Intent Types define the type of Intent, such as a network service or a configuration change, while Metadata is used to store additional information about the Intent, such as its version or author. YANG modules are used to define the data model for a particular technology.
Which character is used to separate the attributes of a Target with multiple attributes?
The character used to separate the attributes of a Target with multiple attributes is/.
For example, a Target with multiple attributes could be:/network=IP/service=VPN.
Which Workflow state allows a Workflow to be executed?
According to the Workflow Manager User Guide from Nokia, the correct answer is C. Published. When a workflow is in the Published state, it can be executed by users who have the appropriate permissions. The Draft state is used during the creation of a new workflow, while the Deprecated state indicates that a workflow is no longer supported and should not be used. The Released state is not mentioned in the context of workflow execution.
Exam domains verified against: Official Nokia 4A0-AI1 exam guide, last checked October 2026.
Covers the foundational aspects of Nokia's Network Services Platform including core components, architecture, and how NSP integrates with various network technologies. Understanding NSP's scalability features, user interface, basic configuration, and its relationship to other Nokia products forms the foundation for automation work.
Sample question from this domain above: Q1
Focuses on APIs, SDKs, and scripting languages for interacting with NSP functions and controlling network automation. Candidates learn to design automation workflows, apply policy-driven configurations, integrate NSP with external systems, and create custom automation scripts for network provisioning and management.
Examines creation, implementation, and management of workflows for network operations tasks, troubleshooting, and service provisioning. Covers workflow tools, logic and branching, error handling and rollback mechanisms, as well as optimization and version control for complex network environments.
Focuses on intent-based networking capabilities including translating business objectives into network intents and implementing them using NSP tools. Covers intent verification, conflict resolution, and the application of machine learning and AI in intent-based networking within the NSP ecosystem.
