Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

To ensure that VoIP traffic in a contact center is not impacted by performance issues after deploying an access control policy on a Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) device, the engineer should configure the access control rule with the 'trust' action. The 'trust' action allows traffic to bypass inspection and policy enforcement, ensuring that critical VoIP traffic is not delayed or degraded.

Steps:

In FMC, navigate to Policies > Access Control > Access Control Policy.

Create a new rule or edit an existing rule.

Set the source and destination for the VoIP traffic.

Set the action to 'trust' to ensure the VoIP traffic is not inspected.

By configuring the rule with the 'trust' action, the VoIP traffic will be prioritized, maintaining the quality and performance required for the contact center operations.

Trust might be risky, better to just allow it.

I’m not completely confident, but I think "monitor" wouldn’t be effective for VoIP since it might still lead to performance drops.

I practiced a similar question where blocking VoIP caused issues, so I feel like "allow" is definitely the safest option here.

I'm a bit unsure, but I think "trust" could work too since it implies that the traffic is recognized as safe.

I remember we discussed how VoIP traffic needs to be prioritized to avoid performance issues, so I think "allow" might be the right choice.

Based on the requirement to avoid performance issues for the VoIP traffic, I'm leaning towards the 'trust' action. That should let the VoIP traffic pass through without any unnecessary processing or delays.

The key here is to ensure the VoIP traffic is not impacted by the policy. I think the 'trust' action is the way to go to keep that traffic flowing smoothly.
