PCNSE Question #671: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

An administrator has configured OSPF with Advanced Routing enabled on a Palo Alto Networks firewall running PAN-OS 10.2. After OSPF was configured the administrator noticed that OSPF routes were not being learned. Which two actions could an administrator take to troubleshoot this issue? (Choose two.)

Options

• ARun the CLI command show advanced-routing ospf neighbor
• BIn the WebUI, view the Runtime Stats in the virtual router
• CLook for configuration problems in Network > virtual router > OSPF
• DIn the WebUI, view Runtime Stats in the logical router

Explanation

When Advanced Routing is enabled in PAN-OS 10.2, the routing engine shifts from the traditional virtual router model to a logical router architecture. This changes both where configuration lives and how to troubleshoot. The correct CLI command is 'show advanced-routing ospf neighbor' - the standard 'show routing protocol ospf neighbor' does not apply in this mode. In the WebUI, OSPF runtime statistics and neighbor state must be viewed under the logical router's Runtime Stats, not the virtual router's Runtime Stats. Similarly, OSPF configuration in Advanced Routing mode is managed under the logical router, not Network > Virtual Router > OSPF, making choices B and C incorrect.
