PCSFE Exam - Question 24


What is a design consideration for a prospect who wants to deploy VM-Series firewalls in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

When deploying VM-Series firewalls in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment, only active-passive high availability (HA) is supported. This means that one VM-Series firewall is active while the other is on standby and will become active if the primary firewall fails. This design consideration ensures redundancy and helps maintain availability within the AWS infrastructure.

C is the only answer that make sense, but Act/Pasv in this mode will function poorly (60 sec or more to switch). https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClD9CAK
