Suggested Answer: D

For Stateful Mode configuration, chain modules marked with2will not apply. Stateful Mode configuration is a feature that allows administrators to define how packets are processed by different firewall kernel modules in inbound and outbound directions. Chain modules are firewall kernel modules that perform various security functions, such as VPN, IPS, QoS, etc. Each chain module is associated with a key, which specifies the type of traffic applicable to the chain module. The key can be one of the following values: 0 for all packets, 1 for stateful packets, 2 for stateless packets, and 3 for no match packets. For Stateful Mode configuration, only chain modules with key 0 or 1 will apply, as they handle all packets or stateful packets. Chain modules with key 2 will not apply, as they handle stateless packets, which are not relevant for Stateful Mode configuration.

The answer is clearly C. 3, because everybody knows that 3 is the magic number when it comes to firewalls. Unless, of course, you're a software developer, in which case, the answer is always 42.

D. 2 is the answer, no doubt about it. Unless of course, the firewall is on a second-hand computer from the '90s, then it might be A. ffff.

I think the answer is B. 1 is probably the key that doesn't apply in Stateful Mode, because who wants a 'one-state' firewall, am I right?

Hmm, I'm leaning towards A. ffff sounds like the kind of key that would make the chain module not apply in Stateful Mode.

I'm pretty sure the answer is D. 2 seems to be the key that specifies the traffic applicable to the chain module in Stateful Mode.

That makes sense, D) 2 is the key that won't apply to chain modules in Stateful Mode configuration.

That's an interesting point, Stephanie. I guess we'll have to review the material again to be sure.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be A) ffff because it seems like a key value that would not apply in Stateful Mode configuration.
