Palo Alto Networks SD-WAN Engineer Sample Questions:
In a Data Center deployment, what is the key functional difference between configuring a BGP neighbor as a
"Core Peer" versus an "Edge Peer"?
- A. A Core Peer supports eBGP only, while an Edge Peer supports iBGP only.
- B. A Core Peer is used for LAN-side routing to learn DC prefixes, while an Edge Peer is used for WAN- side routing to the Service Provider.
- C. A Core Peer is used for connecting to the internet, while an Edge Peer connects to the MPLS provider.
- D. A Core Peer automatically redistributes learned routes into the SD-WAN fabric, whereas an Edge Peer does not.

An administrator has configured a Path Policy for "ERP_Traffic". The policy allows two public internet links,
"ISP-A" and "ISP-B", both marked as "Active". The Path Quality Profile (SLA) requires a latency of less than
150ms. Currently, both ISP-A and ISP-B have a latency of 40ms, well within the SLA.
How does the Prisma SD-WAN ION determine which link to use for a new flow of "ERP_Traffic" when both active paths meet the SLA requirements?
- A. It selects the path with the lowest numerical latency (e.g., if ISP-A drops to 39ms).
- B. It selects the path that appears first in the interface configuration list.
- C. It selects the path with the highest available bandwidth capacity.
- D. It duplicates the packets across both paths (Packet Duplication) to ensure delivery.

A network engineer is able to ping and traceroute from SD-WAN branch IP 192.168.1.123 to servers in primary data center - DC1, but is unable to ping or traceroute to a server 10.2.2.22 in the newly configured secondary data center, DC2.
The DC2 ION device is advertising the branch IP subnet 192.168.1.0/24 to the DC2 core via eBGP Core Peer.
The DC2 data center site has site prefix 10.2.2.0/23 configured.
Which configuration will resolve the issue in this scenario?
- A. Reconfigure eBGP Core Peer as Edge Peer type.
- B. Reconfigure eBGP Core Peer to iBGP Core Peer.
- C. Remove site prefix 10.2.2.0/23 from DC2 site configuration.
- D. The default 0.0.0.0/0 static route to the DC2 ION pointing to the DC2 next hop.

How can a network administrator detect a site outage or a service-level agreement (SLA) violation using controller-generated incidents?
- A. Device logs, alerts, and incidents
- B. Incidents, SNMP traps, and audits
- C. Priority alerts, informational alerts, and audit logs
- D. Incidents, alerts, statistics, and audit logs

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 (ION- to-ION) tunnel over the internet?
- 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.
