A) Static tags are part of the configuration on the firewall, while dynamic tags are part of the runtime configuration. and B) Dynamic Address Groups that are referenced in Security policies must be committed on the firewall. and C) To dynamically register tags, use either the XML API or the VM Monitoring agent on the firewall or on the User-ID agent.
D) IP-Tag registrations to Dynamic Address Groups must be committed on the firewall after each change.
E) Dynamic Address Groups use tags as filtering criteria to determine their members, and filters do not use logical operators.

Which three statements describe the functionality of Dynamic Address Groups and tags? (Choose three.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B, C

Dynamic Address Groups (DAGs) use tags to dynamically populate their membership.

Why A, B, and C are correct:

A . Static tags are part of the configuration on the firewall, while dynamic tags are part of the runtime configuration: Static tags are configured directly on objects. Dynamic tags are applied based on runtime conditions (e.g., by the VM Monitoring agent or User-ID agent).

B . Dynamic Address Groups that are referenced in Security policies must be committed on the firewall: Like any configuration change that affects security policy, changes to DAGs (including tag associations) must be committed to take effect.

C . To dynamically register tags, use either the XML API or the VM Monitoring agent on the firewall or on the User-ID agent: These are the mechanisms for dynamically applying tags based on events or conditions.

Why D and E are incorrect:

D . IP-Tag registrations to Dynamic Address Groups must be committed on the firewall after each change: While changes to the configuration of a DAG (like adding a new tag filter) require a commit, the registration of IP addresses with tags does not. The DAG membership updates dynamically as tags are applied and removed.

E . Dynamic Address Groups use tags as filtering criteria to determine their members, and filters do not use logical operators: DAG filters do support logical operators (AND, OR) to create more complex membership criteria.

Palo Alto Networks Reference:

PAN-OS Administrator's Guide: The section on Dynamic Address Groups provides details on how they work, including the use of tags as filters and the mechanisms for dynamic tag registration.

VM Monitoring and User-ID Agent Documentation: These documents explain how these components can be used to dynamically apply tags.

The documentation confirms the correct statements regarding static vs. dynamic tags, the need to commit DAG changes, and the methods for dynamic tag registration. It also clarifies that DAG filters do use logical operators and that IP-tag registrations themselves don't require commits.

Wait, filters don't use logical operators? That's surprising!

I disagree with D, it seems unnecessary to commit after every change.

D is definitely true, gotta commit after changes.

I recall that dynamic address groups use tags for filtering, but I’m not clear on whether filters can use logical operators or not.

I’m a bit confused about the XML API and VM Monitoring agent; do they both serve the same purpose for registering tags?

I practiced a question similar to this, and I believe that dynamic address groups need to be committed to the firewall for security policies to work properly.

I think I remember that dynamic tags are more flexible and change at runtime, but I’m not entirely sure how that compares to static tags.
