Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Panorama > Prisma Access > Service Setup > Mobile Users > GlobalProtect Client Settings > Client Config > DNS and-or WINS.

    Why this is correct

    The DNS server IPs and primary/secondary suffixes assigned to GlobalProtect clients are configured and pushed via the Client Settings in Panorama.

  • Panorama > Prisma Access > Monitoring > ACC.

    Why it's wrong here

    ACC displays application traffic visualization, not the configured DNS push list for GlobalProtect clients.

  • Panorama > Cloud Services > Status > Traffic Log.

    Why it's wrong here

    Traffic logs show session creation and teardown, not client-side DNS configuration assignments.

  • Panorama > Firewall > Network Profiles > Interface.

    Why it's wrong here

    Prisma Access configuration is managed centrally under Cloud Services or Prisma Access tabs in Panorama, not direct firewall network profile templates for cloud locations.
