The Firewall kernel is replicated multiple times, therefore:

  1. The Firewall kernel only touches the packet if the connection is accelerated
  2. The Firewall can run different policies per core
  3. The Firewall kernel is replicated only with new connections and deletes itself once the connection times out
  4. The Firewall can run the same policy on all cores

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

On a Security Gateway with CoreXL enabled, the Firewall kernel is replicated multiple times. Each replicated copy, or instance, runs on one processing core. These instances handle traffic concurrently, and each instance is a complete and independent inspection kernel.
When CoreXL is enabled, all the kernel instances in the Security Gateway process traffic through the same interfaces and apply the same security policy.

You noticed that CPU cores on the Security Gateway are usually 100% utilized and many packets were dropped. You don't have a budget to perform a hardware upgrade at this time. To optimize drops you decide to use Priority Queues and fully enable Dynamic Dispatcher. How can you enable them?

  1. fw cti multik dynamic_dispatching on
  2. fw cti multik dynamic_dispatching set_mode 9
  3. fw cti multik set_mode 9
  4. fw cti multik pq enable

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

To fully enable the CoreXL Dynamic Dispatcher on Security Gateway:
[Expert@HostName]# fw ctl multik set_mode 9
Example output:
[Expert@R77.30:0]# fw ctl multik set_mode 9
Please reboot the system
[Expert@R77.30:0]#
