Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE) — Question 77

An administrator has been asked to create 100 virtual firewalls in a local, on-premise lab environment (not in ג€the cloudג€). Bootstrapping is the most expedient way to perform this task.
Which option describes deployment of a bootstrap package in an on-premise virtual environment?

Answer options

• A. Use config-drive on a USB stick.
• B. Use an S3 bucket with an ISO.
• C. Create and attach a virtual hard disk (VHD).
• D. Use a virtual CD-ROM with an ISO.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as using a virtual CD-ROM with an ISO is a common method for bootstrapping in virtual environments. Options A and C involve physical media and virtual hard disks, which are not the most efficient for this task. Option B refers to cloud storage (S3), which does not apply to an on-premise setup.
