After configuring a PBF policy, how can you verify that traffic is being forwarded according to the policy?

Check the security policy hit count

Check the routing table to see if the PBF route is present

Check the session table and traffic logs for the matched sessions

Check the ARP table for the next hop

A firewall has a PBF policy that sends traffic from the finance subnet to a banking application over a dedicated link. After deploying the policy, the admin wants to confirm that the traffic is actually egressing the correct interface. Which command or log should be used to verify this?

Use the 'show routing route' command to check the routing table

Use the 'show system resources' command to check CPU usage

Use the 'show session all' command and check the egress interface for the relevant sessions

Use the 'show interface' command to check the interface status

What is the primary purpose of Policy Based Forwarding (PBF) on a Palo Alto Networks firewall?

To override the routing table and forward specific traffic based on criteria such as source, destination, or application

To provide redundancy for the firewall's management plane

To automatically load-balance traffic across all available interfaces

To filter traffic based on security policy rules before it is routed
