Question 12

An administrator needs to allow users to use their own office applications. How should the administrator configure the firewall to allow multiple applications in a dynamic environment?

    Correct Answer: A

    An administrator should create an Application Filter and name it Office Programs, then filter it on the business-systems category and office-programs subcategory. This approach allows for a dynamic grouping of applications, ensuring that any new office-related applications are automatically included without the need for manual updates. This configuration is well-suited for a dynamic environment where users may use various office applications.

Discussion
Jako2252Option: A

I would say, that A is correct: App Filter = dynamic grouping of apps App Group = static, by admin defined set(s) of apps

Angel123Option: A

Correct answer is 'A' 'B' cannot be correct answer since "Multiple applications and multiple application filters can be combined into an application group" (as per PCNSA Study Guide 2020, p.118). "business-systems" shown on answ.B is neither App filter, nor App group, but rather a category.

Correct Answer:A Reference:https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-0/pan-os-admin/app-id/use-application-objects-in -policy/create-an-application-filter.html

Peter_TOption: A

You cannot add a category to an Application Group, only applications within that category, so the answer cannot be B. Since the question is about office applications, I think A is the best answer.
