Description
Palo Alto firewalls are Next Generation firewalls built from the ground up to
address legacy firewalls issues. A great way to start the Palo Alto Networks
Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE PAN-OS) preparation is to begin by
properly following and understanding each topic in the syllabus. This course
follows the syllabus in the Palo Alto and describe each topic to pass the exam
the first time you take it. Also, the course concentrates on the "learn by
doing", therefore, it is a course with a lot of labs and configuration. Not just
boring Power Points presentations. This course guide is an instrument to get you
on the same page with Palo Alto and understand the nature of the Palo Alto PCNSE
exam.
The PCNSE exam should be taken by anyone who wishes to demonstrate a deep
understanding of Palo Alto Networks technologies, including customers who use
Palo Alto Networks products, value-added resellers, pre-sales system engineers,
system integrators, and support staff.
Who this course is for:
This course is for students trying to obtain the PCNSE
This course is for students trying to learn the Palo Alto Firewall
This course is for networking engineers searching to learn Palo Alto
The Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Engineer (PCNSE) certification

QUESTION 1
A network engineer has discovered that asymmetric routing is causing a Palo
Alto Networks firewall
to drop traffic. The network architecture cannot be changed to correct this.
Which two actions can be taken on the firewall to allow the dropped traffic
permanently? (Choose two.)
A. Navigate to Network > Zone Protection Click Add Select Packet Based Attack
Protection > TCP/IP Drop Set "Reject Non-syn-TCP" to No Set "Asymmetric Path" to
Bypass
B. > set session tcp-reject-non-syn no
C. Navigate to Network > Zone Protection Click Add Select Packet Based Attack
Protection > TCP/IP Drop Set "Reject Non-syn-TCP" to Global Set "Asymmetric
Path" to Global
D. # set deviceconfig setting session tcp-reject-non-syn no
Answer: A, D
Explanation:
QUESTION 2
A firewall engineer reviews the PAN-OS GlobalProtect application and sees
that it implicitly uses
web-browsing and depends on SSL.
When creating a new rule, what is needed to allow the application to resolve
dependencies?
A. Add SSL and web-browsing applications to the same rule.
B. Add web-browsing application to the same rule.
C. Add SSL application to the same rule.
D. SSL and web-browsing must both be explicitly allowed.
Answer: C
Explanation:
'Implicitly Uses' has web-browsing listed. This means that if you allow facebook-posting,
that it will
also be allowing the web-browsing application implicitly.. In our case, we dont
know which APP the
question referes too but 'Implicitly means already uses HTTP.
QUESTION 3
What are three tasks that cannot be configured from Panorama by using a template
stack? (Choose three.)
A. Change the firewall management IP address
B. Configure a device block list
C. Add administrator accounts
D. Rename a vsys on a multi-vsys firewall
E. Enable operational modes such as normal mode, multi-vsys mode, or FIPS-CC
mode
Answer: A, D, E

QUESTION 5
Given the following snippet of a WildFire submission log did the end-user get
access to the requested
information and why or why not?
A. Yes, because the action is set to alert
B. No, because this is an example from a defeated phishing attack
C. No, because the severity is high and the verdict is malicious.
D. Yes, because the action is set to allow.
Answer: D
QUESTION 6
Which statement is correct given the following message from the PanGPA log
on the GlobalProtect app? Failed to connect to server at port:47 67
A. The PanGPS process failed to connect to the PanGPA process on port 4767
B. The GlobalProtect app failed to connect to the GlobalProtect Portal on port
4767
C. The PanGPA process failed to connect to the PanGPS process on port 4767
D. The GlobalProtect app failed to connect to the GlobalProtect Gateway on port
4767
Answer: C
QUESTION 7
An engineer reviews high availability (HA) settings to understand a recent
HA failover event. Review the screenshot below.
Which timer determines the frequency at which the HA peers exchange messages in
the form of an ICMP (ping)
A. Hello Interval
B. Promotion Hold Time
C. Heartbeat Interval
D. Monitor Fail Hold Up Time
Answer: B
QUESTION 8
ln a security-first network, what is the recommended threshold value for
apps and threats to be dynamically updated?
A. 1 to 4 hours
B. 6 to 12 hours
C. 24 hours
D. 36 hours
Answer: B
Explanation:
Schedule content updates so that they download-and-install automatically. Then,
set a Threshold
that determines the amount of time the firewall waits before installing the
latest content. In a
security-first network, schedule a six to twelve hour threshold.
QUESTION 9
Refer to the exhibit.

DATACENTER_DG pre-rules
rules configured locally on the firewall
DATACENTER_DG post-rules
shared post-rules
DATACENTER_DG default rules
A. Option A

QUESTION 10
A company wants to add threat prevention to the network without redesigning
the network routing.
What are two best practice deployment modes for the firewall? (Choose two.)
A. VirtualWire
B. Layer3
C. TAP
D. Layer2
Answer: AD
Explanation:
A and D are the best practice deployment modes for the firewall if the company
wants to add threat
prevention to the network without redesigning the network routing. This is
because these modes
allow the firewall to act as a transparent device that does not affect the
existing network topology or routing1.
A: VirtualWire mode allows the firewall to be inserted into any existing network
segment without
changing the IP addressing or routing of that segment2. The firewall inspects
traffic between two
interfaces that are configured as a pair, called a virtual wire. The firewall
applies security policies to
the traffic and forwards it to the same interface from which it was received2.
D: Layer 2 mode allows the firewall to act as a switch that forwards traffic
based on MAC addresses3.
The firewall inspects traffic between interfaces that are configured as Layer 2
interfaces and belong
to the same VLAN. The firewall applies security policies to the traffic and
forwards it to the
appropriate interface based on the MAC address table3.
