SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 310

A network administrator needs to create a policy on Cisco Firepower to fast-path traffic to avoid Layer 7 inspection. The rate at which traffic is inspected must be optimized. What must be done to achieve this goal?

Answer options

• A. Enable the FXOS for multi-instance
• B. Configure a prefilter policy
• C. Configure modular policy framework
• D. Disable TCP inspection

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because configuring a prefilter policy allows specific traffic to bypass deeper Layer 7 inspection, optimizing the inspection rate. Options A, C, and D do not directly address the requirement to fast-path traffic or optimize the inspection process effectively.
