6. An administrator wants multiple web servers in the DMZ to receive connections initiated from the
internet.
Traffic destined for 206.15.22.9 port 80/TCP needs to be forwarded to the server at 10.1.1.22

correctly?

 
 
 
 

7. Which protection feature is available only in a Zone Protection Profile?

 
 
 
 

8. An administrator has configured the Palo Alto Networks NGFW’s management interface to connect to the internet through a dedicated path that does not traverse back through the NGFW itself.

Which configuration setting or step will allow the firewall to get automatic application signature updates?

 
 
 
 

9. Which option is part of the content inspection process?

 
 
 
 

10. Which three steps will reduce the CPU utilization on the management plane? (Choose three.)

12. Starting with PAN-OS version 9.1, GlobalProtect logging information is now recorded in which firewall log?

16. An administrator creates an SSL decryption rule decrypting traffic on all ports. The administrator also creates a Security policy rule allowing only the applications DNS, SSL, and web-browsing.

The administrator generates three encrypted BitTorrent connections and checks the Traffic logs. There are three entries. The first entry shows traffic dropped as application Unknown. The next two entries show traffic allowed as application SSL.

Which action will stop the second and subsequent encrypted BitTorrent connections from being allowed as SSL?

 
 
 
 

17. Which virtual router feature determines if a specific destination IP address is reachable?

 
 
 
 

18. An administrator needs to upgrade a Palo Alto Networks NGFW to the most current version of PAN-OS® software. The firewall has internet connectivity through an Ethernet interface, but no internet connectivity from the management interface. The Security policy has the default security rules and a rule that allows all web- browsing traffic from any to any zone.

What must the administrator configure so that the PAN-OS® software can be upgraded?

 
 
 
 

19. When is the content inspection performed in the packet flow process?
