Palo Alto Networks PSE-Platform Exam - Topic 1 Question 42 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's PSE-Platform exam

Question #: 42
Topic #: 1

A network covers three geographical areas: Americas, Europe (EMEA), and Asia (APAC). The APAC segment of the network consists of nine HA pairs of PA-3060 firewalls, generating a combined log output of 25 K logs per second. Only 14 days of traffic log retention is required.

Which management and logging solution will be effective and cost-efficient for this segment of the network?

ATwo M-500s in HA management at the global level, with one M-100 with 4 TB of storage for APAC

BTwo M-500s in HA management at the global level, and one log collector-mode M-500 with 8 TB of storage for APAC

CTwo M-500s in HA management at the global level, and two log collector-mode M-500s in a log collector group with 16 TB of storage for APAC

DTwo Dual-mode M-500s in HA for both global management and storage. Each M-500 has 8 TB of storage

Wait, 16 TB for APAC? That seems excessive!

D sounds interesting, but I’m not sure about dual-mode efficiency.

Definitely going with A, 4 TB should be enough for 14 days.

I think C is overkill for just 25K logs/sec.

Option B seems solid with the 8 TB storage.

I’m leaning towards option C since it mentions two log collector-mode M-500s, which seems like it would handle the log volume better, but I’m not completely confident.

I feel like we covered something about M-500s in HA mode, but I can't recall if we need one or two for effective logging in APAC.

I think option B sounds familiar from our practice questions, but I'm not entirely sure if 8 TB is enough for 14 days of logs.

I remember we discussed the importance of log retention and how it impacts storage needs. 14 days isn't too long, but 25K logs per second adds up quickly.

I've worked with RESTCONF and YANG before, so I feel pretty confident about this. The module name in the response is "left-interfaces", so the correct answer is option D.

Yeah, it seems like a big operation. They must have a solid management and logging solution in place.

Option C is the way to go! Two log collector-mode M-500s in a group provide redundancy and ample storage for the APAC segment. It's the most future-proof solution.

Option D is overkill for this scenario. We don't need dual-mode M-500s when a single log collector-mode M-500 can handle the APAC segment's needs.

I'm not sure if the M-100 in Option A would have enough storage for the 25K logs per second. The M-500 in Option B seems like a better fit.

Option B seems like the most cost-effective solution. The M-500 with 8 TB of storage should be able to handle the log retention requirements for the APAC segment.
