They can certainly help you prepare for the exam; however, they are not considered a 100% validated or fully corrected dump and passing cannot be guaranteed, for this reason, we are offering this material at a lower price, please note that this clarification applies only to the Palo Alto Networks SD-WAN Engineer (SD-WAN-Engineer) Exam, All other dumps available on our website are fully guaranteed, once the dump is fully prepared and validated, we will write another comment, Good luck with your exam preparation.
Question #1
Question #2
In a Prisma SD-WAN deployment, what is the defining characteristic of a "Standard VPN" compared to a "Secure Fabric Link"? (Choose one answer)
- A. Standard VPNs use GRE encapsulation, while Secure Fabric Links use VXLAN.
- B. Standard VPNs are automatically built between ION devices, while Secure Fabric Links require manual configuration.
- C. Standard VPNs are manually configured IPSec tunnels to non-ION endpoints, while Secure Fabric Links are automated tunnels between ION devices.
- D. Standard VPNs support BGP, whereas Secure Fabric Links only support static routing.
Question #3
When configuring a Path Policy rule for a "Real-Time Video" application, the administrator wants to ensure the traffic uses the path with the lowest packet loss.
How does the Prisma SD-WAN ION determine the "Packet Loss" metric for a given path when there is no active user traffic flowing on that link?
(Choose one answer)
- A. It sends Active Probes (synthetic UDP packets) across the Secure Fabric to measure path quality continuously.
- B. It relies solely on Passive Monitoring of TCP retransmissions from other user traffic on that link.
- C. It queries the ISP's router via SNMP to retrieve interface error counters.
- D. It defaults to a static value of 0% loss until user traffic begins.
Question #4
An administrator needs to ensure that critical VoIP traffic is not dropped even when the branch's primary internet link is fully saturated with bulk file transfers.
Which QoS mechanism does Prisma SD-WAN automatically apply to the "Platinum" priority class to prevent starvation by lower-priority classes?
(Choose one answer)
- A. Strict Priority Queuing (SPQ)
- B. Weighted Round Robin (WRR)
- C. Hierarchical Token Bucket (HTB) with guaranteed bandwidth
- D. First-In, First-Out (FIFO)
Question #5
A network installer is at a remote branch site to deploy a new ION 3000 device. The device has been racked, cabled to the internet, and powered on. The installer has the "Claim Code" displayed on the email sent by the administrator.
When the administrator enters this Claim Code into the Prisma SD-WAN portal, what is the immediate status of the device before the configuration is fully pushed?
(Choose one answer)
- A. Online
- B. Claimed
- C. Provisioned
- D. Active
Question #6
Two branch sites, "Branch-A" and "Branch-B", are both behind active NAT devices (Source NAT) on their local internet circuits.
What requirement must be met for these two branches to successfully establish a direct Dynamic VPN (IONto-ION) tunnel over the internet?
(Choose one answer)
- A. One of the sites must have a Static Public IP (1:1 NAT) to act as the initiator.
- B. Both sites must disable NAT and use public IPs on the ION interface.
- C. The ION devices automatically use STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT) to discover their public IPs and negotiate the connection.
- D. Dynamic VPNs are not supported if both sides are behind NAT
Question #7
Which statement is valid when integrating Prisma SD-WAN with Prisma Access remote networks? (Choose one answer)
- A. Security policies for remote networks are configured in Prisma Access and pushed to Prisma SD-WAN for enforcement on the branch ION devices.
- B. Easy onboarding automatically recommends the closest preconfigured remote network security processing nodes and can be overridden manually.
- C. A branch with multiple internet circuits will automatically connect to Prisma Access on each circuit and will be used in an active/standby manner for internet-bound traffic.
- D. Bandwidth must be allocated to each Prisma Access remote network compute location, and this bandwidth is shared between all branches that terminate on this remote network node.
Question #8
A multinational company is deploying Prisma SD-WAN across North America, Europe, and Asia. The data centers in the North America region have served all regions, but regional policies are now being enforced that
mandate each of the regions to build their own data centers and branch sites to only connect to their respective regional data centers.
How can this regionalization be achieved so that new or existing branch sites only build tunnels to the regional DC IONs?
(Choose one answer)
- A. Create a new cluster for each regional DC ION and move the sites from the existing cluster to the new cluster.
- B. Disable the auto-tunnel feature globally on the Prisma SD-WAN portal and manually create all necessary tunnels exclusively between IONs within their designated regions.
- C. Remove the circuit labels and apply new circuit labels for in-region circuits only.
- D. Assign WAN interfaces to distinct Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instances for each region on the DC IONs, ensuring that branches only connect to the WAN interfaces/VRFs designated for their region.
Question #9
A network operator receives a critical SITE_CONNECTIVITY_DOWN alarm for a branch site in the Prisma SD-WAN portal.
What specific condition triggers this alarm type?
(Choose one answer)
- A. The device has lost power and rebooted.
- B. One of the two internet circuits at the site has gone down.
- C. All Secure Fabric Links (VPNs) to all remote peers are down, isolating the site from the overlay.
- D. The site has exceeded its licensed bandwidth capacity.
Question #10
Which configuration requirement must be met to allow two branch ION devices to automatically establish a direct Dynamic VPN (branch-to-branch) connection for traffic flow, bypassing the Data Center? (Choose one answer)
- A. Both ION devices must be members of the same VPN Cluster.
- B. A static "Gre Tunnel" must be manually configured between the two sites.
- C. The Data Center ION must be offline to trigger the dynamic failover.
- D. The "Standard VPN" path policy must be selected.
When defining a Path Quality Profile (SLA) for a "Transactional" application group (e.g., Citrix, Oracle), the administrator sets the "Packet Loss" threshold to 1%.
What happens to the traffic for this application if all active paths currently exceed this 1% loss threshold? (Choose one answer)
