Palo Alto Networks System Engineer – Strata — Question 93

Which two methods will help avoid Split Brain when running HA in Active/Active mode? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Configure a Backup HA1 Interface
• B. Configure a Heartbeat Backup
• C. Create a loopback IP address and use that as a Source Interface
• D. Place your management interface in an Aggregate Interface Group configuration

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answers, A and B, refer to establishing redundancy and backup paths for communication between the Active/Active nodes, which are crucial for preventing Split Brain scenarios. Options C and D do not directly address the synchronization and heartbeat mechanisms needed to maintain consistent state across the HA nodes.
