PCNSE Question #227: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Which feature can be configured on VM-Series firewalls?

Options

• Aaggregate interfaces
• Bmachine learning
• Cmultiple virtual systems
• DGlobalProtect

Explanation

Palo Alto Networks VM-Series firewalls, being virtual appliances, fully support core software-based security features common to the PAN-OS platform.

Common mistakes.

• A. Aggregate interfaces (LAG) can be complex to configure or limited on VM-Series and often depend heavily on the underlying hypervisor's capabilities, making it not as universally applicable as GlobalProtect.
• B. Machine learning is an advanced capability integrated into various security subscriptions within PAN-OS, but it is not a standalone 'feature to configure' in the same operational sense as a VPN or interface type.
• C. Multiple virtual systems (vsys) are typically restricted to higher-end VM-Series models and require specific licensing, thus not a feature available on all VM-Series firewalls.
