Question 1 Single choice

An administrator needs to use Prism Central to identify a subnet belonging to a VPC.

How can the administrator identify networks associated with a VPC within Prism Central?

  1. A

    There will be a valid IP Prefix for the subnet.

  2. B

    The subnet will reference multiple clusters.

  3. C

    The subnet will have a non-zero VLAN ID.

  4. D

    The subnet will be identified as type Overlay.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

VPC subnets in Prism Central are overlay networks. Identifying the subnet as type Overlay distinguishes it from VLAN-backed networks, while an IP prefix alone does not prove the subnet belongs to a VPC.

Question 2 Single choice

An administrator is deploying a new multi-tenant environment in Prism Central and has created a VPC named TenantVPC1. The administrator needs to enable external connectivity for this VPC so that some services inside the VPC can be accessed from the corporate network without NAT translation, while other services require Internet access through SNAT translation. The administrator plans to use an External Network(s) to provision this connectivity.

Which configuration should the administrator apply to satisfy this requirement?

  1. A

    Create two External Networks for TenantVPC1: one NAT (for Internet access) and one Routed/No-NAT (for corporate network access). Attach both to the VPC.

  2. B

    Create two External Networks both of type Routed/No-NAT and attach both to TenantVPC1, one for corporate access and one for internet access.

  3. C

    Create a single External Network of type NAT only and attach it to TenantVPC1. Define SNAT and Floating IPs for both the corporate-network services and internet-facing services.

  4. D

    Create one External Network of type Routed/No-NAT only, attach to TenantVPC1, and configure routing policy to translate IP addresses for internet-facing services.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The VPC needs two different external behaviors. A NAT External Network provides SNAT for internet-bound services, while a Routed/No-NAT External Network preserves addresses for corporate network access. Attaching both meets both paths.

Question 3 Multiple choice

An administrator is designing a Transit VPC to provide shared corporate services (e.g., DNS) for two tenant VPCs: VPC-A requires WAN access using NAT. VPC-B requires WAN access without NAT. Both VPCs connect to the Transit VPC for shared services hosted on the corporate network. Shared services residing in the Transit VPC use routed IP addressing for WAN connectivity.

Which two configuration elements should the administrator implement on the Transit VPC? (Choose two.)

  1. A

    Associate both a NAT and a No-NAT external VLAN to the Transit VPC to support separate egress paths.

  2. B

    Create two Overlay external subnets in the Transit VPC: one for VPC-A and one for VPC-B.

  3. C

    Use one Overlay external subnet in the Transit VPC to which both VPCs will connect.

  4. D

    Associate one No-NAT external VLAN to the Transit VPC router for underlay connectivity.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: C, D

Explanation

The Transit VPC needs one overlay external subnet as the shared connection point for both tenant VPCs. Its own WAN path uses routed underlay connectivity, so a No-NAT external VLAN is associated to the Transit VPC router. Separate NAT and No-NAT VLANs are for tenant egress choices, not this shared-services VPC.

Question 4 Single choice

An administrator has configured a VPC with multiple overlay subnets and attached a VPN gateway using IPSec. After enabling Jumbo Frames on the physical network, VMs are still experiencing packet drops.

What is the most likely reason?

  1. A

    MTU on guest VMs exceeds recommended size for IPSec.

  2. B

    DHCP relay is misconfigured.

  3. C

    Jumbo frames are not supported on overlay subnets.

  4. D

    Floating IP is missing on the VPN gateway.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

IPSec adds encapsulation overhead, reducing the usable packet size across the tunnel. If guest VMs use an MTU that exceeds the recommended size for IPSec, packets can be dropped even when jumbo frames are enabled on the physical network.

Question 5 Multiple choice

What two preparations allow VDI rules to follow logged-on users through Active Directory group identity? Choose two.

  1. A

    Assign static IP addresses to every user desktop.

  2. B

    Create a NAT external network for each AD group.

  3. C

    Define category values that correspond to directory groups.

  4. D

    Ensure Prism Central identity services collect login information.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: C, D

Explanation

VDI rules can follow users only when directory identity can be translated into policy categories. Define category values that correspond to directory groups, and ensure Prism Central identity services collect login information so the active user group can be applied to the desktop session.

Question 6 Multiple choice

Which two options are supported as a Secured Entity in Flow Network Security Application Policies? (Choose two.)

  1. A

    Subnet Category

  2. B

    vNIC Category

  3. C

    VPC Category

  4. D

    VG Category

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: A, C

Explanation

Flow Network Security application policies can use Subnet Category and VPC Category as secured entities because they represent network scopes that the policy can protect. vNIC and VG categories are not the supported secured-entity choices in this policy type.

Question 7 Single choice

To activate protection after an administrator has reviewed discovered application flows, which action should be taken on the policy?

  1. A

    Leave the policy in Save mode and enable policy hit logging.

  2. B

    Clone the policy and keep both copies in Monitor mode.

  3. C

    Move the policy to Enforce mode after adding the required allow rules.

  4. D

    Export the discovered flows and remove the secured entities.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

After the discovered application flows have been reviewed, the policy needs explicit allow rules for required communication. Moving the policy to Enforce mode then activates protection by blocking traffic outside those allowed rules.

Question 8 Single choice

To protect only the backup-facing vNIC of a dual-homed reporting VM, which Flow Network Security scope should be used?

  1. A

    An entity group combining the VM category and the subnet category for that vNIC

  2. B

    The VM category alone, because policies automatically choose one vNIC

  3. C

    The subnet category for both connected subnets

  4. D

    A VPC-wide policy applied to every vNIC in the VPC

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A dual-homed VM needs policy scope narrow enough to select only the backup-facing interface. An entity group combining the VM category with the subnet category for that vNIC identifies that specific attachment, while a VM-only or VPC-wide scope would cover more interfaces than intended.

Question 9 Single choice

During a night-shift contractor rollout, a help desk VDI policy grants access based on an AD group. Two users receive the dynamic ADGroup category after login, but one contractor is blocked and the category is absent from that desktop. What should the administrator verify first?

  1. A

    Whether the desktop has a Floating IP assigned

  2. B

    Whether the affected contractor matches the mapped AD group and identity data

  3. C

    Whether the VDI security policy is configured as a Transit VPC

  4. D

    Whether the desktop subnet has an Externally Routable Prefix

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The missing dynamic ADGroup category points first to identity matching, not subnet or routing configuration. Verifying that the affected contractor matches the mapped AD group and identity data checks whether Prism Central can assign the category that the VDI policy uses for access.

Question 10 Multiple choice

Which two settings provide a compliance log collector with copies of Flow Network Security rule hits during overnight monitoring? Choose two.

  1. A

    Start IPFIX export on every VPC edge.

  2. B

    Record rule hits on the relevant security policy.

  3. C

    Duplicate the policy into a separate audit scope.

  4. D

    Register the collector as a syslog target.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answers: B, D

Explanation

Rule hit logging must be enabled on the relevant security policy so matching traffic events are recorded. Registering the compliance collector as a syslog target gives the platform a destination to send those rule hit copies during monitoring.
