Which are two main features of ASAv and NGFWv? (Choose two.)

Options

• AFile trajectory
• BAPI-based management
• CFile reputation
• DAgile provisioning

• B

• C

Explanation

API-based management (B) and agile provisioning (D) are correct because ASAv and NGFWv are virtual appliances built for cloud and software-defined environments. Agile provisioning means they can be rapidly deployed, scaled, or torn down on-demand in virtual infrastructures - a defining advantage over physical hardware. API-based management enables programmatic control and integration with orchestration tools (like Ansible or Terraform), which is essential for automated, DevOps-style network operations.

File trajectory (A) and file reputation (C) are distractors - both are features of Cisco AMP (Advanced Malware Protection) / Cisco Secure Endpoint, not of ASAv or NGFWv. They describe how AMP tracks a file's movement through a network and assesses its trustworthiness, respectively.

Memory tip: Think "virtual = flexible" - the two correct answers (API management, agile provisioning) are both about flexibility and automation, which is exactly why organizations choose virtual appliances. If an answer sounds like malware analysis (trajectory, reputation), it belongs to AMP, not the virtual firewall platforms.
