Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE) — Question 519

A network-security engineer attempted to configure a bootstrap package on Microsoft Azure, but the virtual machine provisioning process failed. In reviewing the bootstrap package, the engineer only had the following directories: /config, /license and /software. Why did the bootstrap process fail for the VM-Series firewall in
Azure?

Answer options

• A. All public cloud deployments require the /plugins folder to support proper firewall native integrations
• B. The VM-Series firewall was not pre-registered in Panorama and prevented the bootstrap process from successfully completing
• C. The /config or /software folders were missing mandatory files to successfully bootstrap
• D. The /content folder is missing from the bootstrap package

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the /content folder is a critical component required for the bootstrap process to complete successfully. The absence of this folder means that necessary files for the configuration and operation of the VM-Series firewall are missing. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not address the specific requirement of the /content folder for the bootstrap process.
