Why each option

In Panorama, device groups manage security policies and objects like address objects, whereas templates manage network-related configurations and device settings.

ARouting

Routing configurations (static routes, routing profiles) are typically managed within templates in Panorama because they are specific to the device's network configuration.

BSecurity rulesCorrect

Security rules are managed at the device group level in Panorama, allowing for consistent policy application across firewalls within that group.

CInterfaces

Interface configurations (IP addresses, zones, link settings) are also managed within templates, as they pertain to the physical or logical network setup of a device.

DAddress objectsCorrect

Address objects are global objects referenced by security policies and are therefore managed within device groups.
