Palo Alto Networks SSE Engineer — Question 18

When a review of devices discovered by IoT Security reveals network routers appearing multiple times with different IP addresses, which configuration will address the issue by showing only unique devices?

Answer options

• A. Add the duplicate entries to the ignore list in IoT Security.
• B. Merge individual devices into a single device with multiple interfaces.
• C. Create a custom role to merge devices with the same hostname and operating system.
• D. Delete all duplicate devices, keeping only those discovered using their management IP addresses.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because merging individual devices into a single device with multiple interfaces will effectively consolidate the duplicates while keeping their unique functionalities. The other options either ignore duplicates without solving the underlying issue (A), do not specifically address the uniqueness of devices (C), or may lead to loss of important information by deleting devices (D).
