Question
An engineer is configuring a firewall with three interfaces:
- MGT connects to a switch with internet access.
- Ethernet1/1 connects to an edge router.
- Ethernet1/2 connects to a virtualization network.
The engineer needs to configure dynamic updates to use a dataplane interface for internet traffic. What should be configured in Setup > Services > Service Route Configuration to allow this traffic?
Options
- ASet DNS and Palo Alto Networks Services to use the MGT source interface.
- BSet DNS and Palo Alto Networks Services to use the ethernet1/1 source interface.
- CSet DNS and Palo Alto Networks Services to use the ethernet1/2 source interface.
- DSet DDNS and Palo Alto Networks Services to use the MGT source interface.

Explanation
The engineer wants dynamic updates (signature/content updates) to use a dataplane interface rather than the management (MGT) interface. In Setup > Services > Service Route Configuration, you can override the default (MGT) source interface per service type. Since Ethernet1/1 connects to the edge router (internet access), setting both DNS and Palo Alto Networks Services to use ethernet1/1 (Option B) directs update traffic out through the dataplane to the internet. Option A routes traffic through MGT, not a dataplane interface. Option C uses ethernet1/2, which connects to the internal virtualization network and has no path to the internet or Palo Alto update servers. Option D references DDNS rather than DNS, which is the wrong service type for this use case.
