PSE Strata Exam - Question 1


What is the key benefit of Palo Alto Networks Single Pass Parallel Processing design?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

The key benefit of Palo Alto Networks Single Pass Parallel Processing design is that it allows Palo Alto Networks to add new functions to existing hardware. This architecture streamlines the process by enabling multiple functions to be processed simultaneously, thereby improving performance and scalability. This design does not mean that only one processor is needed; instead, it optimizes the processing efficiency to incorporate advanced features and technology without requiring new hardware additions.

Nonsense answers. C can't be right since PAN boxes contain multiple processors for multiple functions. Single pass means processing is done in parallel, it does not mean ALL functions are done with single processor...

Commercialy is the most used argument

C is wrong because their is a cpu for each layer in SP3

B as C seams incorrect as there are multiple CPUs in every Firewall. If you read all functions as not just SP3 then you have the separate CPUs in Data & Control planes.

https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/resources/whitepapers/single-pass-parallel-processing-architecture says: it enables high-throughput, low-latency network security, even while incorporating unprecedented features and technology "unprecedented features and technology" - so answer should be B.

"With our Single-Pass Architecture, Palo Alto Networks makes it possible to add a function to an NGFW instead of adding another security device"

The answer is C. Single pass parallel processing ensures the evualuation of app-ID , content-ID, user-ID per patcket in one single process. The hardware parallel processing which is divided in 3 platforms: data, control, and management is the one in charge to make the software process faster since each task is divided per platform. So, answer is still C.
