300-710 Exam Dumps - Securing Networks with Cisco Firepower (300-710 SNCF)

To connect to a Secure Endpoint private cloud instance from Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC), the network engineer requires the SSL certificate for the Secure Endpoint private cloud instance. This SSL certificate is necessary to establish a secure, trusted connection between the FMC and the private cloud instance.

Steps:

Obtain the SSL certificate from the server administrator.

Import the SSL certificate into the FMC.

Configure the connection to the Secure Endpoint private cloud instance using the provided hostname and SSL certificate.

This ensures a secure and authenticated connection to the private cloud instance.

The default action setting in a Cisco FTD Access Control Policy determines how the system handles and logs traffic that is not handled by any other access control configuration. The default action can block or trust all traffic without further inspection, or inspect traffic for intrusions and discovery data3.

The Trust All Traffic option allows all traffic from an undefined application to pass without Snort inspection. This option also disables Security Intelligence filtering, file and malware inspection, and URL filtering for all traffic handled by the default action. This option is useful when you want to minimize the performance impact of access control on your network3.

The other options are incorrect because:

The Inherit from Base Policy option inherits the default action setting from the base policy. The base policy is the predefined access control policy that you use as a starting point for creating your own policies. Depending on which base policy you choose, the inherited default action setting can be different3.

The Network Discovery Only option inspects all traffic for discovery data only. This option enables Security Intelligence filtering for all traffic handled by the default action, but disables file and malware inspection, URL filtering, and intrusion inspection. This option is useful when you want to collect information about your network before you configure access control rules3.

The Intrusion Prevention option inspects all traffic for intrusions and discovery data. This option enables Security Intelligence filtering, file and malware inspection, URL filtering, and intrusion inspection for all traffic handled by the default action. This option provides the most comprehensive protection for your network, but also has the most performance impact3.

To support more than two interfaces per context and enable NAT configurations, the firewall must operate in routed mode. Since the firewall was previously in transparent mode, the network engineer needs to change it to routed mode.

Steps:

Access the CLI of the Secure FTD device.

Run the commandconfigure firewall routedto switch the firewall from transparent mode to routed mode.

Reregister the FTD device with the FMC by running theconfigure manager add command from the FTD device CLI.

This will ensure that the firewall can support the required NAT configurations and more than two interfaces per context.
