SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 36

A network administrator notices that SI events are not being updated. The Cisco FTD device is unable to load all of the SI event entries and traffic is not being blocked as expected. What must be done to correct this issue?

Answer options

• A. Restart the affected devices in order to reset the configurations.
• B. Redeploy configurations to affected devices so that additional memory is allocated to the SI module.
• C. Replace the affected devices with devices that provide more memory.
• D. Manually update the SI event entries to that the appropriate traffic is blocked.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because redeploying configurations can allocate additional memory to the SI module, allowing it to handle more event entries. Option A is incorrect because simply restarting the devices does not address the memory allocation issue. Option C, replacing devices, is unnecessary if the current devices can be configured to work correctly. Option D fails to resolve the underlying problem of insufficient memory for handling SI events.
