Palo Alto Networks NGFW Engineer — Question 46

An engineer at a managed services provider is updating an application that allows its customers to request firewall changes to also manage SD-WAN. The application will be able to make any approved changes directly to devices via API.
What is a requirement for the application to create SD-WAN interfaces?

Answer options

• A. REST API’s “sdwanInterfaceprofiles” parameter on a Panorama device
• B. REST API’s “sdwanInterfaces” parameter on a firewall device
• C. XML API’s “sdwanprofiles/interfaces” parameter on a Panorama device
• D. XML API’s “InterfaceProfiles/sdwan” parameter on a firewall device

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the application needs to utilize the REST API’s 'sdwanInterfaceprofiles' parameter on a Panorama device to create SD-WAN interfaces. Options B, C, and D mention parameters that are either incorrect for SD-WAN interfaces or apply to different devices or API types, making them unsuitable for this requirement.
