Cisco 350-701 Exam - Topic 2 Question 117 Discussion

Actual exam question for Cisco's 350-701 exam

Question #: 117
Topic #: 2

[All 350-701 Questions]

[Security Concepts]

A Cisco Firepower administrator needs to configure a rule to allow a new application that has never been seen

on the network. Which two actions should be selected to allow the traffic to pass without inspection? (Choose

two)

Apermit

Btrust

Creset

Dallow

Emonitor

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, E

Each rule also has an action, which determines whether you monitor, trust, block, or allow matching traffic.

Note: With action ''trust'', Firepower does not do any more inspection on the traffic. There will be no intrusion protection and also no file-policy on this traffic.

This question is a real head-scratcher. I'm going to go with my gut and say A) permit and D) allow. Yolo, right?

Hmm, I thought C) reset would be the way to go. Guess I need to brush up on my Cisco Firepower knowledge.

I’m leaning towards "permit" and "trust," but I might be mixing it up with another topic we covered.

"Allow" sounds familiar, but I feel like "monitor" could also be relevant in this context.

I remember practicing a similar question where "trust" was mentioned, but I can't recall if it's the right choice here.

I think "permit" is definitely one of the options, but I'm not sure about the second one.

I think the answer is B and E. Trusting the traffic and monitoring it would be the safest approach to handle a new application on the network.

B and D for sure. We need to trust the traffic and allow it to pass through without inspection since it's a new app we haven't seen before. Monitoring it first could cause issues.

Hmm, this is tricky. I'm leaning towards B and A - trusting the traffic and permitting it to pass. That way we can keep an eye on it without disrupting the new application.

Ah, the classic "allow without inspection" dilemma. I'd go with B) trust and E) monitor, just to be on the safe side.

Haha, this question is a real "trust fall" for the Cisco admin. B) trust and D) allow all the way!

I'm not sure about this one. Shouldn't we be monitoring the new application first before just letting it through? Maybe E and B would be the better options.
