Which procedure is most effective for maintaining continuity and security during a Prisma Access data plane software upgrade?

  1. Back up configurations, schedule upgrades during off-peak hours, and use a phased approach rather than attempting a network-wide rollout.
  2. Use Strata Cloud Manager (SCM) to perform dynamic upgrades automatically and simultaneously across all locations at once to ensure network-wide uniformity.
  3. Disable all security features during the upgrade to prevent conflicts and re-enable them after completion to ensure a smooth rollout process.
  4. Perform the upgrade during peak business hours, quickly address any user-reported issues, and ensure immediate troubleshooting post-rollout.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The best practice for Prisma Access data plane upgrades involves backing up configurations, scheduling upgrades during off-peak hours, and using a phased approach to minimize disruption and maintain continuity. As per the Palo Alto Networks documentation:

"To minimize disruptions, it is recommended to perform Prisma Access upgrades during non- business hours and in a phased manner, starting with less critical sites to validate the process before moving to critical locations. Backup configurations and validate the system's readiness to avoid data loss and maintain service continuity."

An NGFW administrator is updating PAN-OS on company data center firewalls managed by Panoram

  1. Prior to installing the update, what must the administrator verify to ensure the devices will continue to be supported by Panorama?
  2. Device telemetry is enabled.
  3. Panorama is configured as the primary device in the log collecting group for the data center firewalls.
  4. All devices are in the same template stack.
  5. Panorama is running the same or newer PAN-OS release as the one being installed.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The firewall must be running a PAN-OS version that is supported by Panorama. This means that Panorama must be running the same or a newer PAN-OS version as the one being installed on the firewalls to maintain compatibility.

"Before you upgrade the firewall, ensure that Panorama is running the same or a later PAN-OS version than the firewall. Panorama must always be at the same or a higher version to maintain compatibility."

In which two applications can Prisma Access threat logs for mobile user traffic be reviewed? (Choose two.)

  1. Prisma Cloud dashboard
  2. Strata Cloud Manager (SCM)
  3. Strata Logging Service
  4. Service connection firewall

Answer(s): B,C

Explanation:

Threat logs for Prisma Access mobile users can be reviewed in both Strata Cloud Manager (SCM) and Strata Logging Service. Prisma Cloud and service connection firewalls are not directly tied to mobile user traffic logs.

"Prisma Access logs are available in the Strata Cloud Manager and can also be sent to the Strata Logging Service for detailed analysis and threat visibility."

(Source: Prisma Access Administration Guide)



Which two tools can be used to configure Cloud NGFWs for AWS? (Choose two.)

  1. Cortex XSIAM
  2. Prisma Cloud management console
  3. Panorama
  4. Cloud service provider's management console

Answer(s): C,D

Explanation:

Cloud NGFW for AWS can be configured using Panorama for centralized management, as well as the AWS management console for native integration and configuration.

"You can configure Cloud NGFW for AWS using Panorama for centralized security management, or directly through the AWS management console to deploy and manage security services for your AWS resources."

Using Prisma Access, which solution provides the most security coverage of network protocols for the mobile workforce?

  1. Explicit proxy
  2. Client-based VPN
  3. Enterprise browser
  4. Clientless VPN

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Client-based VPN solutions like GlobalProtect provide full coverage for the mobile workforce by extending the enterprise security stack to remote endpoints. It establishes a secure tunnel, allowing consistent security policies across the enterprise perimeter and the mobile workforce.

"GlobalProtect is a client-based VPN that provides secure, consistent protection for mobile users by extending the security capabilities of Prisma Access to remote endpoints, covering all network protocols."

Which two prerequisites must be evaluated when decrypting internet-bound traffic? (Choose two.)

  1. RADIUS profile
  2. Incomplete certificate chains
  3. Certificate pinning
  4. SAML certificate

Answer(s): B,C

Explanation:

When implementing SSL Forward Proxy decryption for outbound traffic, two key challenges that must be evaluated are:

Incomplete certificate chains: This occurs when the firewall cannot validate the entire certificate chain for a site, which may cause decryption failures.

Certificate pinning: Applications like banking apps may use certificate pinning to prevent MITM (man-in-the-middle) attacks, and these applications will break if SSL Forward Proxy is used.

"When decrypting outbound SSL traffic, you must consider incomplete certificate chains, which can cause decryption to fail if the firewall cannot validate the entire chain. Also, be aware of certificate pinning in applications that prevents decryption by rejecting forged certificates."

(Source: Palo Alto Networks Decryption Concepts)



Which firewall attribute can an engineer use to simplify rule creation and automatically adapt to changes in server roles or security posture based on log events?

  1. Address objects
  2. Dynamic Address Groups
  3. Dynamic User Groups
  4. Predefined IP addresses

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Dynamic Address Groups enable the firewall to automatically adjust security policies based on tags assigned dynamically (via log events, API, etc.). This eliminates the need for manual updates to policies when server roles or IPs change.

"Dynamic Address Groups allow you to create policies that automatically adapt to changes in the environment. These groups are populated dynamically based on tags, enabling automated security policy updates without manual intervention."

How does a firewall behave when SSL Inbound Inspection is enabled?

  1. It acts transparently between the client and the internal server.
  2. It decrypts inbound and outbound SSH connections.
  3. It decrypts traffic between the client and the external server.
  4. It acts as meddler-in-the-middle between the client and the internal server.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

SSL Inbound Inspection allows the firewall to decrypt incoming encrypted traffic to internal servers (e.g., web servers) by acting as a man-in-the-middle (MITM). The firewall uses the private key of the server to decrypt the session and apply security policies before re-encrypting the traffic.

"SSL Inbound Inspection requires you to import the server's private key and certificate into the firewall. The firewall then acts as a man-in-the-middle (MITM) to decrypt inbound sessions from external clients to internal servers for inspection."

took the test last week, i did have about 15 - 20 word for word from this site on the test. (only was able to cram 600 of the questions from this site so maybe more were there i didnt review) had 4 labs, bgp, lacp, vrf with tunnels and actually had to skip a lab due to time. lots of automation syntax questions.
