Question 1

An NGFW engineer is configuring multiple Layer 2 interfaces on a Palo Alto Networks firewall, and all interfaces must be assigned to the same VLAN. During initial testing, it is reported that clients located behind the various interfaces cannot communicate with each other. Which action taken by the engineer will resolve this issue?

A : Configure each interface to belong to the same Layer 2 zone and enable IP routing between them.

B : Assign each interface to the appropriate Layer 2 zone and configure a policy that allows traffic within the VLAN.

C : Assign each interface to the appropriate Layer 2 zone and configure Security policies for interfaces not assigned to the same zone.

D : Enable IP routing between the interfaces and configure a Security policy to allow traffic between interfaces within the VLAN.

Answer: B

Question 2

A network architect is planning the deployment of a new IPSec VPN tunnel to connect a local data center to a cloud environment. The plan must include all necessary Security policy configurations for both tunnel negotiation and data transit. Which two Security policy requirements must be included in the implementation plan? (Choose two answers)

A : The default interzone-default security policy is sufficient to allow the tunnel negotiation traffic between the firewall and the remote peer.

B : A pair of policies is required to control the flow of data traffic into and out of the security zone assigned to the tunnel interface.

C : A policy must explicitly permit only the IKE application between the external-facing zone and local zone.

D : A policy must explicitly permit the IPSec container application between the external-facing zone and local zone.

Answer: B,D

Question 3

Which type of firewall resource can be assigned when configuring a new firewall virtual system (VSYS)?

A : ICPU

B : Sessions limit

C : Memory

D : Security profile limit

Answer: B

Question 4

Which configuration step is required when implementing a new self-signed root certificate authority (CA) certificate for SSL decryption on a Palo Alto Networks firewall?

A : Import the new subordinate CA certificate into the trust stores of all client devices.

B : Set the subordinate CA certificate as the default routing certificate for all network traffic.

C : Configure the subordinate CA to issue certificates with indefinite validity periods.

D : Disable all existing SSL decryption rules until the new certificate is fully propagated.

Answer: A

Question 5

When configuring a Zone Protection profile, in which section (protection type) would an NGFW engineer configure options to protect against activities such as spoofed IP addresses and split handshake session establishment attempts?

A : Flood Protection

B : Protocol Protection

C : Packet-Based Attack Protection

D : Reconnaissance Protection
