Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C, D

To deploy a VM-Series firewall on NSX, you need to enable communication between Panorama and the NSX Manager. This allows Panorama to receive information about the virtual machines and services in the NSX environment. You also need to register the VM-Series firewall as a service on the NSX Manager.This allows NSX to redirect traffic to the VM-Series firewall for inspection3.

I'm pretty sure A and C are the right choices. The plugin can handle both virtual and hardware firewalls, and it definitely manages cloud-specific stuff.

C and B seem like the correct answers here. The VM-Series plugin is specifically designed to manage cloud interactions and can be upgraded independently of the PAN-OS.

I'm not sure about statement B, but I think D is incorrect because the plugin cannot manage Panorama plugins.

I agree with you, Dante. I also believe statement A is true as the plugin can manage capabilities common to both VM-Series firewalls and hardware firewalls.
