   A retail company has deployed Prisma SD-WAN across 50 branch sites. The network team needs to identify which specific branch-to-branch path is causing latency for a critical inventory application before users complain. They want a single pane of glass that correlates WAN path metrics with application-level experience. Which ADEM capability should they use to meet this requirement?

   • ADeploy an ADEM agent on the inventory application server to collect server-side CPU and memory metrics
   • BView the ADEM portal's application path visualization showing per-hop latency between the two branches
   • CConfigure SNMP traps on the WAN links to alert when interface utilization exceeds 80%
   • DEnable NetFlow export on the branch routers and analyze traffic flows in a third-party tool

   A government agency has a hybrid workforce: 60% of users are in offices connected via Prisma SD-WAN, and 40% work remotely using VPN clients. ADEM is deployed with sensors on branch appliances. Remote users report slow access to a critical case-management application, but the ADEM portal shows healthy performance for the same application from the offices. What is the most likely gap in the ADEM deployment?

   • AThe case-management application is not supported by ADEM's application signatures
   • BThe VPN concentrator is not configured to forward ADEM telemetry to the portal
   • CThe remote users are not covered by ADEM because endpoint agents are not installed on their devices
   • DThe remote users' ISP paths are not monitored because ADEM only tracks the last mile from the branch

   A media company uses Prisma SD-WAN with ADEM. Users at a branch report that a large file-transfer application is slow. ADEM shows: latency 20ms, jitter 2ms, packet loss 0% on the primary path, but throughput is only 5 Mbps on a 100 Mbps link. The backup path shows throughput of 50 Mbps with similar latency and loss. What is the most likely cause of the slow file transfer?

   • AHigh latency on the primary path causing TCP windowing issues
   • BA throughput bottleneck on the primary path, which ADEM reveals despite healthy latency, jitter, and loss
   • CPacket loss on the primary path causing retransmissions
   • DThe application is not supported by ADEM and the data is unreliable

   A global logistics company is configuring ADEM for the first time. They have already deployed Prisma SD-WAN at all sites and identified the critical applications to monitor. The ADEM portal is accessible, but no application performance data is appearing. The team has verified that the Prisma SD-WAN appliances are online and reporting. What is the most likely missing configuration step?

   • AConfiguring a site-to-site VPN between the branch appliances and the ADEM portal
   • BCreating a new ADEM portal administrator account for each branch site
   • CAssigning the ADEM sensor role to the Prisma SD-WAN branch appliances
   • DInstalling the ADEM agent on every end-user workstation at all branches
