Explanation:
The two key exchange algorithms that consume the most resources when decrypting SSL traffic are ECDHE and DHE. These are both Diffie-Hellman based algorithms that enable perfect forward secrecy (PFS), which means that they generate a new and unique session key for each SSL/TLS session, and do not reuse any previous keys. This enhances the security of the encrypted communication, but also increases the computational cost and complexity of the key exchange process. ECDHE stands for Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral, which uses elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) to generate the session key. DHE stands for Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral, which uses modular arithmetic to generate the session key. Both ECDHE and DHE require more CPU and memory resources than RSA, which is a non-PFS algorithm that uses public and private keys to encrypt and decrypt the session key.

Explanation:
When managing firewalls with Panorama, configurations can be pushed from Panorama templates to managed firewalls. However, there are scenarios where specific settings need to be overridden on the local firewall level due to unique requirements or exceptions.
B. The modification will not be visible in Panorama:
When an override is made directly on the firewall, this change is not automatically reflected back in Panorama's templates or device groups. The local configuration on the firewall will take precedence over the Panorama pushed configuration for the overridden settings, but these local changes will not be visible in the Panorama interface. This means that while Panorama maintains central control and visibility over the bulk of the configuration, it does not have visibility into local overrides made directly on the firewalls.
This distinction is crucial for auditors and administrators to understand, as it impacts how configurations are managed and synchronized between Panorama and the individual firewalls. Local overrides provide flexibility but require careful management to ensure consistency and compliance with security policies.

Explanation: Use the dynamic user group in a policy to regulate traffic for the members of the group. You will need to configure at least two rules: one to allow initial traffic to populate the dynamic user group and one to deny traffic for the activity you want to prevent (in this case, questionable-activity). To tag users, the rule to allow traffic must have a higher rule number in your rule base than the rule that denies traffic.

Explanation: In the second image, VW ports mentioned are 1/5 and 1/7. Hence it can not be a part of any other routing. So if any traffic coming as ingress from 1/7, it has to go out via 1/5. The egress interface for the traffic with ingress interface ethernet1/7, source 192.168.111.3, and destination 10.46.41.113 will be ethernet1/5. This is because the traffic will match the virtual wire with interfaces ethernet1/5 and ethernet1/7, which is configured to allow VLAN-tagged traffic with tags 10 and 201. The traffic will also match the security policy rule that allows traffic from zone Trust to zone Untrust, which are assigned to ethernet1/7 and ethernet1/5 respectively2. Therefore, the traffic will be forwarded to the same interface from which it was received, which is ethernet1/53.

Explanation: Custom Panorama Admin: Custom Panorama Admin roles allow you to customize the elements of Panorama that an administrator can access. You can hide tabs in the web interface, you can set specific items in Panorama to read-only, or you can limit an administrator’s access to Panorama plugins. Custom Panorama Admin roles require planning and configuration, but they provide extensive flexibility because you can control what administrators can access through the web interface or the CLI. Device Group and Template Admin: Device Group and Template Admin roles also require configuration because there are no built-in examples. These Admin Roles allow you to define which Panorama templates or Panorama device groups an administrator can access and configure. You can hide tabs in the web interface or set specific items to read only to control what administrators can configure.

Explanation: For a network security administrator to authenticate and identify a user with a new BYOD-type device that is not joined to the corporate domain, the most effective method is to use an Authentication policy targeting users not yet identified by the system.
A. an Authentication policy with 'unknown' selected in the Source User field:
An Authentication policy allows the firewall to challenge unidentified users for credentials. By selecting 'unknown' in the Source User field, the policy targets users who have not yet been identified by the firewall, which would include users on new BYOD devices not joined to the domain.
Once the user provides valid credentials, the firewall can authenticate the user and map their identity to subsequent sessions, enabling the application of user-based policy rules and monitoring.
This approach ensures that new and unknown devices can be properly authenticated and identified without compromising security or requiring the device to be part of the corporate domain.
