Explanation

In the PAN-OS GUI under Policies > Security, the 'Reset Rule Hit Counter > All Rules' option resets every rule's hit count in a single action-making it the fastest method. Option A (highlighting each rule and choosing 'Selected Rules') requires individually selecting rules one by one, which is slow for large rulesets. Option B (rebooting the firewall) is disruptive and unnecessary. Option D describes a CLI command syntax that does not actually exist in PAN-OS in that form, making it invalid.
