Palo Alto Networks XSIAM Engineer — Question 16

Which two requirements must be met for a Cortex XDR agent to successfully use the Broker VM as a download source for content updates? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Device Configuration profile applied to the XDR agent must specify the Broker VM as a Download Source.
• B. Agent Settings profile applied to the XDR agent must specify the Broker VM as a Download Source.
• C. Broker VM must be configured with an FQDN.
• D. XDR agent must authenticate to the Broker VM using a machine certificate.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answer is B and C because the Agent Settings profile specifically needs to designate the Broker VM as the Download Source, and the Broker VM must have an FQDN for proper identification and connectivity. Option A is incorrect as it refers to the Device Configuration profile, which is not the correct profile for this requirement. Option D is also incorrect because authentication via a machine certificate is not a necessary requirement for using the Broker VM as a download source.
