A CN-Series firewall can secure traffic between which elements?

  1. Host containers
  2. Containers
  3. Pods
  4. Source applications

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The CN-Series firewalls are specifically designed to secure containerized environments. They can secure traffic between Kubernetes pods, which are the smallest deployable units in a Kubernetes cluster, and are often composed of one or more containers. The primary focus of CN-Series firewalls is to ensure security within Kubernetes environments by managing traffic and enforcing security policies at the pod level.
