Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Use the CLI operational command 'show user ip-user-mapping all' or check User-ID status in the Prisma Access monitoring dashboard.
Why this is correct
Viewing active IP-to-user mappings confirms whether User-ID agents or GlobalProtect has successfully resolved the user identity.
- ✗
Check the GlobalProtect Gateway tunnel status.
Why it's wrong here
Tunnel status confirms connectivity, but does not display user group membership or IP mappings.
- ✗
Run 'show system software status'.
Why it's wrong here
Software status shows daemon health, not user-to-IP mappings.
- ✗
Verify the SSL Decryption certificate expiration date.
Why it's wrong here
Certificates govern encryption trust, not User-ID resolution.
