20+ practice questions focused on Configuration — one of the most tested topics on the Cisco Securing Networks with Cisco Firewalls (300-710 SNCF, CCNP Security) (300-710 SNCF) exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation so you learn why the right answer is correct.
Start Configuration PracticeAn administrator is configuring a network object in the FMC to represent a range of IP addresses from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200. Which object type should be created?
Explanation: The Range object type allows defining a contiguous sequence of IP addresses from a start IP to an end IP.
An administrator needs to configure manual NAT on an FTD device to translate both the source IP and source port of outbound packets originating from 192.168.2.50 to a specific public IP 198.51.100.10 and port 50000. Which manual NAT rule element achieves this?
Explanation: Manual NAT allows full control over both source and destination translation, including port-level translation. Setting the Translated Source to an IP object and enabling dynamic port translation (PAT) rewrites the source IP to 198.51.100.10 and the source port to 50000, satisfying the requirement. This is the only option that supports translating both IP and port simultaneously in a manual NAT rule.
An engineer needs to prioritize voice traffic (DSCP EF) over a constrained WAN interface on an FTD device. Where must the QoS policy be configured and applied?
Explanation: QoS policies are created under Objects > QoS > QoS and then applied to an Access Control Policy, specifically assigned to desired egress or ingress interfaces.
An administrator wants to decrypt inbound HTTPS traffic destined for a public web server behind a Firepower Threat Defense device. Which type of SSL/TLS decryption policy must be configured on the FMC?
Explanation: To decrypt inbound HTTPS traffic destined for a public web server behind an FTD, the administrator must configure a Decrypt - Inbound policy. This policy type is specifically designed to handle traffic entering the network from external sources and destined for internal servers. It allows the FTD to act as a reverse proxy, decrypting the traffic for inspection before re-encrypting and forwarding it to the server.
An administrator is configuring manual NAT and needs to ensure that the original source port is preserved during translation without port overloading. Which feature should be selected in the manual NAT rule?
Explanation: Port translation settings in manual NAT include 'Round Robin' or preserving source ports when doing source NAT translations.

Practice all Configuration questions1. Baseline your knowledge
Start with 10 questions to gauge your current understanding of Configuration. This tells you whether you need a concept refresher or just practice.
2. Review every explanation
For each question — right or wrong — read the full explanation. Understanding why an answer is correct is more valuable than knowing the answer itself.
3. Focus on exam traps
Configuration questions on the 300-710 SNCF frequently use trap wording. Look for subtle differences in answers that test your precision, not just general knowledge.
4. Reach 80% consistently
Do repeated sessions until you score 80%+ three times in a row. Then move to mixed-mode practice to test cross-topic recall under realistic conditions.
The exact number varies per candidate. Configuration is tested as part of the Cisco Securing Networks with Cisco Firewalls (300-710 SNCF, CCNP Security) (300-710 SNCF) blueprint. Practicing with targeted Configuration questions ensures you can handle any format or difficulty that appears.
