Question

An administrator plans to deploy 15 firewalls to act as GlobalProtect gateways around the world Panorama will manage the firewalls. The firewalls will provide access to mobile users and act as edge locations to on-premises Infrastructure. The administrator wants to scale the configuration out quickly and wants all of the firewalls to use the same template configuration. Which two solutions can the administrator use to scale this configuration? (Choose two.)

Options

  • Avariables
  • Btemplate stacks
  • Ccollector groups
  • Dvirtual systems

Explanation

When deploying many firewalls with a shared base configuration that still needs per-device unique values (e.g., IP addresses, interface names), the solution is: (A) Variables - Panorama template variables act as placeholders in the template that are replaced with device-specific values at push time, allowing a single template to serve many firewalls with different IPs or settings. (B) Template stacks - allow layering multiple templates so a base configuration is shared across all firewalls while device-specific overrides can be applied in additional stack layers. Together, variables and template stacks enable rapid, scalable deployment. (C) Collector groups are for log forwarding and aggregation, not configuration scaling. (D) Virtual systems segment a single firewall; they do not help scale config across multiple devices.
