A company uses a custom application that uses TCP port 3000. The administrator needs to create an application override for this traffic. The security team wants to ensure that the override only applies to traffic from a specific source subnet. How should the administrator configure this?

Create the application override and apply it to a security rule that specifies the source subnet.

Create a separate application override for each source IP in the subnet.

Specify the source subnet in the application override configuration.

Use a service object with the source subnet and apply it to the override.

What is the primary purpose of an application override policy on a Palo Alto Networks firewall?

To force the firewall to identify traffic as a specific application based on port and protocol, bypassing App-ID inspection.

To block all traffic that does not match a known application signature.

To allow traffic only when the application signature matches the configured port.

To decrypt SSL traffic so the firewall can inspect the application inside the tunnel.

In which scenario is an application override policy most appropriate?

When you need to decrypt traffic to identify the application inside an SSL tunnel.

When you want to allow all traffic from a specific IP address without inspection.

When a custom application uses a non-standard port and App-ID cannot identify it.

When you need to block all social media applications during business hours.

After configuring an application override for a custom ERP system on TCP port 8080, the administrator wants to confirm that the override is working correctly. Where should the administrator look to verify that traffic is being classified as the custom application?

Review the application override policy list to ensure the rule is enabled.

Run a packet capture on the firewall interface to inspect the payload.

Check the traffic logs for the session and review the 'Application' column.

Check the system logs for application override errors.

Which step is required to create an application override policy in the Palo Alto Networks firewall?

Set the security rule's action to 'override' in the rule's general tab.

Enable application override in the firewall's global settings.

Create an application override object and reference it in a security rule.

Create a custom application signature and attach it to a security rule.
