NEW QUESTION # 158
Panorama provides which two SD-WAN functions? (Choose two.)
- A. control plane
- B. network monitoring
- C. data plane
- D. physical network links
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
How Does SD-WAN Work?
Traditional WANs rely on physical routers to connect remote or branch users to applications hosted on data centers. Each router has a [data plane], which holds the information, and a
[control plane], which tells the data where to go. Where data flows is typically determined by a network engineer or administrator who writes rules and policies, often manually, for each router on the network - a process that can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
SD-WAN separates the control and management processes from the underlying networking hardware, making them available as software that can be easily configured and deployed. A centralized control pane means network administrators can write new rules and policies, and then configure and deploy them across an entire network at once.

NEW QUESTION # 164
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?
- A. Security policy rule

NEW QUESTION # 165
While analyzing the Traffic log, you see that some entries show "unknown-tcp" in the Application column What best explains these occurrences?
- A. A handshake took place, but no data packets were sent prior to the timeout.
- B. A handshake did not take place, and the application could not be identified.
- C. A handshake took place; however, there were not enough packets to identify the application.
- D. A handshake did take place, but the application could not be identified.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Unknown-tcp means the firewall captured the three-way TCP handshake, but the application was not identified. This may be due to the use of a custom application for which the firewall does not have signatures.

NEW QUESTION # 166
Which value in the Application column indicates UDP traffic that did not match an App-ID signature?
- A. not-applicable
- B. unknown-ip
- C. incomplete
- D. unknown-udp
Answer: D
Explanation:
To safely enable applications you must classify all traffic, across all ports, all the time. With App- ID, the only applications that are typically classified as unknown traffic--tcp, udp or non-syn-tcp--in the ACC and the Traffic logs are commercially available applications that have not yet been added to App-ID, internal or custom applications on your network, or potential threats.

NEW QUESTION # 173
A firewall administrator is configuring an IPSec tunnel between Site A and Site B. The Site A firewall uses a DHCP assigned address on the outside interface of the firewall, and the Site B firewall uses a static IP address assigned to the outside interface of the firewall. However, the use of dynamic peering is not working.
Refer to the two sets of configuration settings provided. Which two changes will allow the configurations to work? (Choose two.) Site A configuration:
- A. Enable NAT Traversal on Site B firewall
- B. Configure Local Identification on Site firewall
- C. Disable passive mode on Site A firewall
- D. Match IKE version on both firewalls.
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
The image shows an IKE Gateway configuration where Site B is set to IKEv1 only mode, and passive mode is not enabled. For dynamic peering to work when Site A is using a DHCP assigned address:
* Passive mode on Site A needs to be disabled. In passive mode, the firewall will not initiate the IKE negotiation and will only respond to negotiation requests from the peer. Since Site A has a dynamic IP, it must be able to initiate the connection to Site B, which has a static IP.
* Matching the IKE version between Site A and Site B is also necessary for successful IPSec tunnel establishment. Since Site B is set to IKEv1 only mode, Site A also needs to be configured to use IKEv1 to ensure that both sites are using the same version for the IKE negotiation process.
NAT Traversal is used when there are NAT devices between the two endpoints, but there's no indication that this is the case here. Additionally, local identification on Site A is not necessarily related to the issue with dynamic peering not working.
NEW QUESTION # 174
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?
- A. A scheduler will need to be configured for application signatures.
- B. A Threat Prevention license will need to be installed.
- C. A Security policy rule will need to be configured to allow the update requests from the firewall to the update servers.
- D. A service route will need to be configured.
Answer: D
Explanation:
The firewall uses the service route to connect to the Update Server and checks for new content release versions and, if there are updates available, displays them at the top of the list.

NEW QUESTION # 175
An enterprise has a large Palo Alto Networks footprint that includes onsite firewalls and Prisma Access for mobile users, which is managed by Panorama. The enterprise already uses GlobalProtect with SAML authentication to obtain IP-to-user mapping information.
However, Information Security wants to use this information in Prisma Access for policy enforcement based on group mapping. Information Security uses on-premises Active Directory (AD) but is uncertain about what is needed for Prisma Access to learn groups from AD.
How can policies based on group mapping be learned and enforced in Prisma Access?
- A. Create a group mapping configuration that references an LDAP profile that points to on-premises domain controllers.
- B. Set up group mapping redistribution between an onsite Palo Alto Networks firewall and Prisma Access.
- C. Configure Prisma Access to learn group mapping via SAML assertion.
- D. Assign a master device in Panorama through which Prisma Access learns groups.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Step 3: Allow Panorama to use group mappings in security policies by configuring one or more next-generation on-premises or VM-series firewalls as a Master Device.
If you don't configure a Master Device with a Prisma Access User-ID deployment, use long-form distributed name (DN) entries instead.
