Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Administrator (PCNSA) — Question 370

An administrator wants to filter access to www.paloaltonetworks.com via a custom URL category.

Which syntax would match this?

Answer options

• A. https://paloaltonetworks.com
• B. #.paloaltonetworks.com
• C. http://paloaltonetworks.com
• D. *.paloaltonetworks.com

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, '*.paloaltonetworks.com', as the asterisk allows for matching any subdomain of paloaltonetworks.com. Option A and C specify protocols but do not cover subdomains, while option B uses a syntax that is not valid for URL filtering.
