At last, in this section, candidates will get equipped with the knowledge of URL filtering components and how to monitor access to them.

  • Simply Passing Traffic

    To start is the subsection on identifying and configuring management interfaces for the firewall. It covers access to the firewalls for Palo Alto Networks, steps to gaining access to firewall, methods for managing firewall, services for firewall, etc. Managing firewall features is next with a focus on configurations for candidates, running, last saved, saved name configuration snapshot, export and import device states, and more. There is also configuring internal as well as external services targeting account administration, administrative roles, authentication sequence, configuration logs, etc. What follows further is the domain of firewall interfaces that include Ethernet, Virtual, Layer 2, Tap, Layer 3, and aggregate. Some parts cover security zones and virtual routers while others focus on the function of specific types of security, followed by identifying and configuring conditions, logging options, security policies. Also, implicit in addition to explicit rules and security rule hit count are to be covered by the PCNSA test. Finally, are the matters of NAT solution implementation covering NAT types, configuring source NAT, and more.

  • Traffic Visibility

    Traffic visibility concerns rules for security and this covers application shifts, dependent applications, and implicit applications as well as determining them. Such a topic is also about application filters or groups, application characteristics, properties, timeouts, and tools for optimizing security policies. The last part concerns features for streamlining policy creation for App-ID such as application tags and dependencies and explicit app dependency resolution targeting workflows.

  • Deployment Optimization

    This topic engages the advantages as well as differences occurring between the PBA reports and Heatmap. In particular, it includes the Heatmap component that analyzes the deployment of Palo Alto Networks and filters the data by making use of various group devices.
