A company is considering moving from an on-premises Prisma SD-WAN deployment to a cloud-hosted one. They have a branch in a remote location with very limited bandwidth. What is the primary trade-off they should consider?

Cloud-hosted deployments require more bandwidth for control traffic, which could strain the limited link

On-premises deployments cannot be managed remotely

Cloud-hosted deployments do not support path selection policies

On-premises deployments are less secure than cloud-hosted ones

An administrator is onboarding a new branch site. The site has a single WAN link, and the administrator has already created the site object and added the WAN interface. However, the branch is not appearing as online in the Prisma SD-WAN dashboard. What is the most likely cause?

The branch device is not powered on

The WAN link type and bandwidth have not been configured

The LAN interface has not been configured

The security policy is blocking the branch's connection to the controller

In Prisma SD-WAN, what is the primary purpose of a security policy?

To define which applications are allowed and how traffic is forwarded

To assign IP addresses to branch devices

To configure the physical WAN links

During initial setup of a Prisma SD-WAN branch, what information is typically required when configuring a WAN link?

The DHCP server scope for the branch

The type of link (e.g., MPLS, broadband) and its bandwidth

The VLAN ID for the branch network

The IP address and subnet mask of the LAN interface
