2V0-41.24 Question 415
Single answerAn organization has deployed NSX Intelligence to gain deeper insights into their network traffic and security posture. The network administrator wants to identify potential security risks by analyzing flows that are currently not protected by any firewall rules. Which specific feature or capability in NSX Intelligence should the administrator use to achieve this?
- A
Security Planning view to visualize unprotected flows
- B
Policy Recommendations to automatically create firewall rules for unprotected flows
- C
Topology Visualization to map traffic patterns across the network
- D
Flow Search to manually identify unprotected traffic flows
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The Security Planning view in NSX Intelligence provides a comprehensive visualization of unprotected flows, making it the most suitable feature for identifying potential security risks. This capability allows administrators to proactively analyze traffic and ensure it is properly secured, which aligns with the objective of using NSX Intelligence to enhance network security.
- A. Correct.
The Security Planning view in NSX Intelligence is specifically designed to help administrators visualize unprotected flows and analyze traffic patterns that require additional security measures.
- B. Incorrect.
Policy Recommendations suggest firewall rules based on observed traffic but do not directly provide a visual analysis of unprotected flows. This is not the initial step for identifying security risks.
- C. Incorrect.
Topology Visualization focuses on mapping the network topology and showing the relationships between nodes, but it does not specifically identify unprotected flows.
- D. Incorrect.
Flow Search allows for manual searching of specific flows, but it is not the most efficient or targeted feature for identifying unprotected traffic at a broader level.
