How can you start debug of the Unified Policy with all possible flags turned on?

Explanation

Option A is correct because fw ctl debug -m UP all follows the exact syntax to target the Unified Policy kernel module (-m UP) and activate all available debug flags with the all keyword - giving you the most verbose output possible for troubleshooting.

Why the distractors fail:

  • B (fw ctl debug -m UP) correctly names the module but omits all, so no debug flags are actually enabled - you'd get no useful debug output.
  • C (fw ctl debug -m fw + UP) attempts an invalid module combination; fw and UP are separate modules and cannot be chained this way.
  • D (fw ctl debuq -m UnifiedPolicv all) contains two typos - debuq (not debug) and UnifiedPolicv (the correct module shortname is UP, not the full spelled-out name) - making the command invalid entirely.

Memory tip: Think of the command structure as three slots: tool (fw ctl debug) + target (-m UP) + intensity (all). If any slot is missing or misspelled, the debug session won't start correctly. The module is always the two-letter abbreviation UP, never the full name.
