Course Highlights
The Palo Alto Firewall Training course provides an extensive introduction to Palo Alto firewall technologies. It begins with common network security terms and malware definitions, leading into the fundamentals of Palo Alto Networks and their certifications like PCNSE. Students will explore the installation of Palo Alto Firewalls on different platforms such as VMware Workstation, GNS3, and EVE-NG, setting the stage for deeper configuration lessons.
The course continues by examining key aspects such as DNS and NTP configuration, firewall interfaces, zones, routing protocols like RIPV2 and OSPF, and security policy rules. Learners will also configure Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT), as well as various security profiles, including antivirus, anti-spyware, and vulnerability protection. Advanced topics such as SSL forward proxy, App-ID configuration, and VPN setup will also be covered.
Through structured lessons and step-by-step lab work, participants will gain thorough knowledge of Palo Alto Firewalls, from installation to advanced deployment modes. The course also includes content on firewall high availability, backup and restoration procedures, and Syslog configurations, ensuring learners are well-prepared to manage and troubleshoot firewalls in any environment.
