Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Device > Setup > Operations > Routing
Why it's wrong here
Device Setup is for administrative settings and maintenance operations, not routing table configuration.
- ✗
Network > Interfaces > Ethernet > Static Route
Why it's wrong here
Interfaces configure physical and logical port parameters, not routing tables.
- ✓
Network > Virtual Routers > [Virtual Router Name] > Static Routes
Why this is correct
Static routes are managed directly inside the configuration of the specific Virtual Router.
- ✗
Policies > Routing > Static
Why it's wrong here
Palo Alto Networks uses Virtual Routers for routing configuration, not a dedicated Policies tab for static routes.
