Question 1:
Given the screenshot, how did the firewall handle the traffic?
A. Traffic was allowed by policy but denied by profile as encrypted.
B. Traffic was allowed by policy but denied by profile as a threat.
C. Traffic was allowed by profile but denied by policy as a threat.
D. Traffic was allowed by policy but denied by profile as a nonstandard port.
Correct Answer: B
The screenshot shows the threat log which records the traffic that matches a threat signature or is blocked by a security profile. The log entry indicates that the traffic was allowed by the security policy rule “Allow-All” but was denied by the vulnerability protection profile “strict” as a threat. The threat name is “Microsoft Windows SMBv1 Multiple Vulnerabilities (MS17-010: EternalBlue)” and the action is “reset-both” which means that the firewall reset both the client and server connections.

Question 7:
An engineer has been given approval to upgrade their environment 10 PAN-OS 10 2 The environment consists of both physical and virtual firewalls a virtual Panorama HA pair, and virtual log collectors What is the recommended order when upgrading to PAN-OS 10.2?
A. Upgrade Panorama, upgrade the log collectors, upgrade the firewalls
B. Upgrade the firewalls upgrade log collectors, upgrade Panorama
C. Upgrade the firewalls upgrade Panorama, upgrade the log collectors
D. Upgrade the log collectors, upgrade the firewalls, upgrade Panorama
Correct Answer: A
Make sure Panorama is running the same or a later PAN-OS version than you are upgrading to. You must upgrade Panorama and its Log Collectors to 10.2 before upgrading the managed firewalls to this version. In addition, when upgrading Log Collectors to 10.2, you must upgrade all Log Collectors at the same time due to changes in the logging infrastructure.

Question 8:
Which three actions can Panorama perform when deploying PAN-OS images to its managed devices? (Choose three.)
A. upload-only
B. upload and install and reboot
C. verify and install
D. upload and install
E. install and reboot
Correct Answer: ABD
In Panorama after you download the software you have the install button and then you are choosing devices.
By default it is uploading and installing the software, but there is a check box if you want to upload the software only, and there is another check box if you want to reboot the device after installation.
Question 9:
An administrator sees several inbound sessions identified as unknown-tcp in the traffic logs. The administrator determines that these sessions are from external users accessing the company\’s proprietary accounting application.

A. Create an Application Override policy and a custom threat signature for the application
B. Create an Application Override policy
C. Create a custom App-ID and use the “ordered conditions” check box
D. Create a custom App ID and enable scanning on the advanced tab
Correct Answer: D

What are three reasons for excluding a site from SSL decryption? (Choose three.)
A. the website is not present in English
B. unsupported ciphers
C. certificate pinning
D. unsupported browser version
E. mutual authentication
Correct Answer: BCE
Reasons that sites break decryption technically include pinned certificates, client authentication, incomplete certificate chains, and unsupported ciphers. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/10-1/pan-os-admin/decryption/decryptionexclusions/exclude-a-server-from-decryption.html

Question 13:
A company is looking to increase redundancy in their network. Which interface type could help accomplish this?
A. Layer 2
B. Virtual wire
C. Tap
D. Aggregate ethernet
Correct Answer: D
An aggregate group increases the bandwidth between peers by load balancing traffic across the combined interfaces. It also provides redundancy https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/10-1/pan-os-networking-admin/configure- interfaces/ configure-an-aggregate-interface-group#id9c0f5a8b-0aad-4be5-821d- ef9d7c11a88d
Question 14:
If an administrator wants to apply QoS to traffic based on source, what must be specified in a QoS policy rule?
A. Post-NAT destination address
B. Pre-NAT destination address
C. Pre-NAT source address
D. Post-NAT source address
Correct Answer: C
Question 15:
As a best practice, logging at session start should be used in which case?
A. On all Allow rules
B. While troubleshooting
C. Only when log at session end is enabled
D. Only on Deny rules
Correct Answer: B
Logging at session start should be used as a best practice while troubleshooting. Logging at session start allows the administrator to see the logs for sessions that are initiated but not completed, such as sessions that are dropped or blocked by the firewall. This can help the administrator to identify and resolve issues with network connectivity or firewall configuration. Logging at session start should not be used for normal operations because it generates more logs and consumes more resources on the firewall. Option A is incorrect because logging at session start should not be used on all Allow rules. Logging at session end is sufficient for Allow rules because it provides information about the completed sessions, such as bytes and packets transferred, application, user, and threat information. Option C is incorrect because logging at session start can be used independently of logging at session end. Logging at session start and logging at session end are not mutually exclusive options. Option D is incorrect because logging at session start should not be used only on Deny rules. Logging at session end is sufficient for Deny rules because it provides information about the denied sessions, such as source and destination IP addresses, ports, and protocol.
