Question 1:
How does an administrator schedule an Applications and Threats dynamic update while delaying installation of the update for a certain amount of time?
A. Configure the option for “Threshold”.
B. Disable automatic updates during weekdays.
C. Automatically “download only” and then install Applications and Threats later, after the administrator approves the update.
D. Automatically “download and install” but with the “disable new applications” option used.
Correct Answer: A
For Antivirus and Applications and Threats updates, you have the option to set a minimum Threshold of time that a content update must be available before the firewall installs it. Very rarely, there can be an error in a content update and this threshold ensures that the firewall only downloads content releases that have been available and functioning in customer environments for the specified amount of time. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-0/pan-os-web-interface-help/ device/device- dynamic-updates

Question 3:
An administrator has left a firewall to use the data of port for all management service which there functions are performed by the data face? (Choose three.)
A. NTP
B. Antivirus
C. Wildfire updates
D. NAT
E. File tracking
Correct Answer: ACD
Question 4:
A network administrator is troubleshooting an issue with Phase 2 of an IPSec VPN tunnel. The administrator determines that the lifetime needs to be changed to match the peer. Where should this change be made?
A. IKE Gateway profile
B. IPSec Crypto profile
C. IPSec Tunnel settings
D. IKE Crypto profile
Correct Answer: B
The **IKE crypto profile** is used to set up the encryption and authentication algorithms used for the key exchange process in IKE Phase 1, and lifetime of the keys, which specifies how long the keys are valid. To invoke the profile, you must attach it to the IKE Gateway configuration.
The **IPSec crypto profile** is invoked in IKE Phase 2. It specifies how the data is secured within the tunnel when Auto Key IKE is used to automatically generate keys for the IKE SAs.
Question 5:
An administrator is assisting a security engineering team with a decryption rollout for inbound and forward proxy traffic. Incorrect firewall sizing is preventing the team from decrypting all of the traffic they want to decrypt. Which three items should be prioritized for decryption? (Choose three.)
A. Financial, health, and government traffic categories
B. Less-trusted internal IP subnets
C. Known malicious IP space
D. High-risk traffic categories
E. Public-facing servers
Correct Answer: CDE
Question 6:
Which tool provides an administrator the ability to see trends in traffic over periods of time, such as threats detected in the last 30 days?
A. Session Browser
B. Application Command Center
C. TCP Dump
D. Packet Capture
Correct Answer: B
Reference: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/Management-Articles/Tips-amp-Tricks- How-to-Use-the-Application-Command-Center- ACC/ta-p/67342
The Application Command Center (ACC) page visually depicts trends and a historic view of traffic on your network. It displays the overall risk level for all network traffic, the risk levels and number of threats detected for the most active and highest-risk applications on your network, and the number of threats detected from the busiest application categories and from all applications at each risk level. The ACC can be viewed for the past hour, day, week, month, or any custom-defined time frame.
Question 7:
An engineer troubleshoots a Panorama-managed firewall that is unable to reach the DNS servers configured via a global template. As a troubleshooting step, the engineer needs to configure a local DNS server in place of the template value.
Which two actions can be taken to ensure that only the specific firewall is affected during this process? (Choose two.)
A. Override the DNS server on the template stack.
B. Configure the DNS server locally on the firewall.
C. Change the DNS server on the global template.
D. Configure a service route for DNS on a different interface.
Correct Answer: AB
Question 8:
Which three settings are defined within the Templates object of Panorama? (Choose three.)
A. Setup
B. Virtual Routers
C. Interfaces
D. Security
E. Application Override
Correct Answer: ABC
Question 9:
In a template, which two objects can be configured? (Choose two.)
A. SD-WAN path quality profile
B. Monitor profile
C. IPsec tunnel
D. Application group
Correct Answer: BC

Question 10:
An engineer decides to use Panorama to upgrade devices to PAN-OS 10.2.
Which three platforms support PAN-OS 10 2? (Choose three.)
A. PA-5000 Series
B. PA-500
C. PA-800 Series
D. PA-220
E. PA-3400 Series
Correct Answer: CDE
According to the Palo Alto Networks Compatibility Matrix1, the three platforms that support PAN-OS 10.2 are: PA-800 Series2 PA-2202 PA-3400 Series2 The PA-5000 Series and PA-500 do not support PAN-OS 10.22. To upgrade devices to PAN-OS 10.2 using Panorama, you need to determine the upgrade path3, upgrade Panorama itself4, and then upgrade the firewalls using Panorama5.
Question 11:
Which three external authentication services can the firewall use to authenticate admins into the Palo Alto Networks NGFW without creating administrator account on the firewall? (Choose three.)
A. RADIUS
B. TACACS+
C. Kerberos
D. LDAP
E. SAML
Correct Answer: ABE
According to the Palo Alto Networks documentation1, the firewall can use three external authentication services to authenticate admins into the Palo Alto Networks NGFW without creating administrator accounts on the firewall: RADIUS,
TACACS+, and SAML. These services allow the firewall to verify the credentials of admins against an external server and grant them access based on their assigned roles and permissions.
Therefore, the correct answer is A, B, and E.
The other options are not external authentication services that the firewall can use to authenticate admins:
Kerberos: This option is not an external authentication service that the firewall can use to authenticate admins. Kerberos is a protocol that allows users to access network resources using a single sign-on mechanism. The firewall can use
Kerberos to authenticate users for GlobalProtect VPN or Captive Portal, but not for admin access.
LDAP: This option is not an external authentication service that the firewall can use to authenticate admins. LDAP is a protocol that allows querying and modifying directory services over a network. The firewall can use LDAP to retrieve user
and group information from an external server, but not to authenticate admins.

Question 12:
What is considered the best practice with regards to zone protection?
A. Review DoS threat activity (ACC > Block Activity) and look for patterns of abuse
B. Use separate log-forwarding profiles to forward DoS and zone threshold event logs separately from other threat logs
C. If the levels of zone and DoS protection consume too many firewall resources, disable zone protection
D. Set the Alarm Rate threshold for event-log messages to high severity or critical severity
