PCNSA EXAM/59 QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS
A client downloads a malicious file from the internet. The Palo Alto firewall
has a valid WildFire subscription. The Security policy rule shown above
matches the client HTTP session: Which three actions take place when the
firewall's Content-ID engine detects a virus in the file and the decoder action
is set to "block"? (Choose three.) - -A threat log entry is generated.
The file download is terminated.
The client receives a block page.
-A company has a pair of PA-3050s running PAN-OS 6.0.4. Antivirus, Threat
Prevention, and URL Filtering Profiles are in place and properly configured on
both inbound and outbound policies. A Security Operation Center (SOC)
engineer starts his shift and faces the traffic logs presented in the screenshot
shown above. He notices that the traffic is being allowed outbound. Which
actions should the SOC engineer take to safely allow known but not yet
qualified applications, without disrupting the remaining traffic policies? - -
Create Application Override policies after a packet capture to identify the
applications that are triggering the "unknown-tcp". Then create new custom
applications for those policies, and add these new policies above the current
policy that allows the traffic.
-A company has a Palo Alto Networks firewall configured with the following
three zones: Internet DMZ Inside. All users are located on the Inside zone
and are using public DNS servers for name resolution. The company hosts a
publicly accessible web application on a server in the DMZ zone. Which NAT
rule configuration will allow users on the Inside zone to access the web
application using its public IP address? - -Three zone U-turn NAT
-A company has a Palo Alto Networks firewall configured with the following
three zones: Untrust-L3 DMZ Trust-L3. The company hosts a publicly
accessible web application on a server that resides in the Trust-L3 zone. The
web server is associated with the following IP addresses: Web Server Public
IP: 2.2.2.1/24 , Web Server Private IP: 192.168.1.10/24 . The security
administrator configures the following two-zone U-Turn NAT rule to allow
users using 10.10.1.0/24 on the "Trust-L3" zone to access the web server
using its public IP address in the Untrust-L3 zone: Which statement is true in
this situation? - -The traffic will be considered intra-zone based on the
translated destination zone.
-A company is deploying a pair of PA-5060 firewalls in an environment
requiring support for asymmetric routing. Which High Availability (HA) mode
best supports this design requirement? - -Active-Active mode
, -A company policy dictates that logs must be retained in their original
format for a period of time that would exceed the space limitations of the
Palo Alto Networks firewall's internal storage. Which two options will allow
the company to meet this requirement? (Choose two.) - -Palo Alto Networks
Log Collector
Panorama Virtual Machine with NFS storage
-A company uses Active Directory and RADIUS to capture User-ID
information and implement user-based policies to control web access. Many
Linux and Mac computers in the environment that do not have IP-address-to-
user mappings. What is the best way to collect user information for those
systems? - -Use Captive Portal to capture user information
-A company wants to run their pair of PA-200 firewalls in a High Availability
active/passive mode and will be using HA-Lite. Which capability can be used
in this situation? - -Configuration Sync
-A Management Profile to allow SSH access has been created and applied to
interface ethernet1/1. A security rule with the action "deny" is applied to
packets from "any" source zone to "any" destination zone. What will happen
when someone attempts to initiate an SSH connection to ethernet1/1? - -
SSH access to the interface will be denied because intra-zone traffic is
denied.
-A network administrator needs to view the default action for a specific
spyware signature. The administrator follows the tabs and menus through
Objects > Security Profiles > Anti-Spyware, and selects the default Profile.
What should be done next? - -Click the Exceptions tab and then click Show
all signatures.
-A Palo Alto Networks firewall has been configured with multiple virtual
systems and is administered by multiple personnel. Several administrators
are logged into the firewall and are making configuration changes to
separate virtual systems at the same time. Which option will ensure that no
single administrator's changes are interrupted or undone by another
administrator while still allowing all administrators to complete their changes
prior to issuing a commit? - -Each administrator sets a configuration and
commit lock for the vsys to which they are making changes.
-A Palo Alto Networks firewall is being targeted by a DoS attack from the
Internet that is creating a flood of bogus TCP connections to internal servers
behind the firewall. This traffic is allowed by security policies, and other than
creating half-open TCP connections, it is indistinguishable from legitimate
inbound traffic. Which Zone Protection Profile with SYN Flood Protection
