PSE Strata Exam - Question 88


A packet that is already associated with a current session arrives at the firewall.

What is the flow of the packet after the firewall determines that it is matched with an existing session?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

When a packet that is already associated with a current session arrives at the firewall, it is sent through the fast path because session establishment is not required. If subject to content inspection, it will pass through a single stream-based content inspection engine before egress. This ensures efficient processing and reduces latency by avoiding repeated inspection steps.
