An engineer must implement Cisco Secure Firewall transparent mode due to a new server recently being added that must communicate with an existing server that is currently separated by the firewall. Which implementation action must be taken next by the engineer to accomplish the goal?
Answer(s): B
In transparent mode, Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) operates as a Layer 2 firewall, acting as a "bump in the wire" without performing routing functions. This mode allows devices on either side of the firewall to communicate as if they were on the same network. To achieve this, the firewall typically uses bridge domains or similar configurations to group devices.A bridge domain groups interfaces in transparent mode so that devices on each side of the firewall can communicate directly. Ensuring that both servers are in the same bridge domain allows traffic to pass through the firewall transparently, enabling communication between the two servers as if the firewall were not there.
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is configuring a high-availability solution that has the hardware devices and software versions:· two Cisco Secure Firewall 9300 Security Appliances with FXOS SW 2.0(1.23) · software Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense 6.0.1.1 (build 1023) on both appliances · one Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center with SW 6.0.1.1 (build 1023)Which condition must be met to complete the high-availability configuration?
Answer(s): D
In a high-availability (HA) setup for Cisco Secure Firewall devices, both firewalls in the HA pair must have identical configurations, which includes having the same number of interfaces with matching names, IP addresses, and settings. This requirement ensures that both devices can function seamlessly as primary and secondary units, allowing for smooth failover without configuration mismatches.For HA to work properly, each firewall must have the same interface configuration to ensure that both units can handle traffic in the same way when a failover event occurs. If the primary device fails, the secondary device needs to have identical interface configurations to take over immediately.
An engineer is deploying a Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center appliance. The company must send data to Cisco Secure Network Analytics appliances. Which two actions must the engineer take? (Choose two.)
Answer(s): A,B
To send data from Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) to Cisco Secure Network Analytics (formerly Stealthwatch), the engineer must configure NetFlow to export traffic information to the analytics appliances.The "Create a Service Identifier to Enable the NetFlow Service" step is necessary to define and enable the NetFlow service on the Secure Firewall Management Center. By creating a service identifier, the engineer specifies that the FMC will be sending NetFlow data, which is the primary data source for Cisco Secure Network Analytics.The Netflow_Send_Destination Object specifies the destination for NetFlow data. By adding the Netflow_Send_Destination object, the engineer directs the FMC to send traffic data to the Cisco Secure Network Analytics appliances.
An engineer is deploying failover capabilities for a pair of Cisco Secure Firewall devices. The core switch keeps the MAC address of the previously active unit in the ARP table. Which action must the engineer take to minimize downtime and ensure that network users keep access to the internet after a Cisco Secure Firewall failover?
Answer(s): A
When deploying failover capabilities for a pair of Cisco Secure Firewalls (often using the High Availability (HA) feature), it's important that the MAC address seen by the network doesn't change during a failover. Using a virtual MAC address ensures that the same MAC address is presented to the network, regardless of which firewall unit (active or standby) is in control. This minimizes downtime because the core switch will continue to route traffic to the correct unit, as the virtual MAC address remains constant.
DRAG DROPRefer to the exhibit. An engineer must configure a connection on a Cisco ASA 5500-X Series with a Cisco Secure Firewall Services Module to ensure that the secondary interface takes over all the functions of the primary interface if the primary interface fails. Drag and drop the code snippets from the bottom onto the boxes in the CLI commands to configure the failover. Not all options are used.Select and Place:
ASA(config)# interface Redundant1ASA(config-if)# member-interface GigabitEthernet1/5ASA(config-if)# member-interface GigabitEthernet1/4Redundant1 command creates the redundant interface that will combine the primary and secondary interfaces into a failover pair. After this, you define the member-interface for each physical interface (GigabitEthernet1/5 and GigabitEthernet1/4) under the redundant interface configuration.
