Palo Alto Networks NGFW Engineer — Question 20

Without performing a context switch, which set of operations can be performed that will affect the operation of a connected firewall on the Panorama GUI?

Answer options

• A. Restarting the local firewall, running a packet capture, accessing the firewall CLI
• B. Modification of local security rules, modification of a Layer 3 interface, modification of the firewall device hostname
• C. Modification of pre-security rules, modification of a virtual router, modification of an IKE Gateway Network Profile
• D. Modification of post NAT rules, creation of new views on the local firewall ACC tab, creation of local custom reports

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because these modifications directly affect the routing and security policies of the firewall without requiring a context switch. Options A and B involve actions that either do not change the firewall's operational state or require context switching. Option D involves changes that are more related to reporting and visualization rather than direct operational adjustments.
