PCNSA · Question #403
In which three places on the PAN-OS interface can the application characteristics be found? (Choose three.)
The correct answer is A. Objects tab > Applications C. Objects tab > Application Filters D. ACC tab > Global Filters. Application characteristics, which define attributes like category, risk, and technology, are visible in multiple locations within the PAN-OS interface to facilitate configuration and monitoring. They are integral to understanding and managing application behavior.

Why each option
Application characteristics, which define attributes like category, risk, and technology, are visible in multiple locations within the PAN-OS interface to facilitate configuration and monitoring. They are integral to understanding and managing application behavior.
Under 'Objects tab > Applications', selecting an individual application object displays its detailed characteristics such as category, subcategory, technology, and risk.
The 'Objects tab > Application Groups' section lists collections of applications, but it does not directly display the individual characteristics of each application within the group; one would need to navigate to the individual application object.
When configuring or viewing 'Objects tab > Application Filters', the filter's definition explicitly uses and displays the application characteristics (e.g., category, risk) by which it groups applications.
In the 'ACC (Application Command Center) tab', application characteristics are available as criteria within 'Global Filters', allowing administrators to analyze traffic based on these attributes.
The 'Policies tab > Security' rules define what applications are allowed or denied, but they do not typically display the full breakdown of an application's characteristics within the rule itself.
