What are three valid methods that use firewall flex credits to activate VM-Series firewall licenses by specifying authcode? (Choose three.)

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

Firewall flex credits and authcodes are used to license VM-Series firewalls. The methods for using authcodes during bootstrapping include:

A . /config/bootstrap.xml file of complete bootstrapping package: The bootstrap.xml file is a key component of the bootstrapping process. It can contain the authcode for licensing.

B . /license/authcodes file of complete bootstrap package: A dedicated authcodes file within the bootstrap package is another valid method for providing license information.

C . Panorama device group in Panorama SW Licensing Plugin: While Panorama manages licenses, specifying authcodes directly via a device group is not the typical method for bootstrapping. Panorama usually manages licenses after the firewalls are bootstrapped and connected to Panorama.

D . authcodes= key value pair of Azure Vault configuration: While using Azure Key Vault for storing and retrieving secrets (like authcodes) is a good security practice for ongoing operations, it's not the primary method for initial bootstrapping using flex credits. Bootstrapping typically relies on the local bootstrap package.

E . authcodes= key value pair of basic bootstrapping configuration: This refers to including the authcode directly in the bootstrapping configuration, such as in the init-cfg.txt file or via cloud-init.

The authcodes key value pair in Azure Vault sounds familiar, but I’m not sure if it’s specifically for firewall flex credits.

I’m pretty confident that the /license/authcodes file is one of the methods, but I’m a bit shaky on the others.
