Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Enable HIP data collection on the GlobalProtect agent settings.
Why this is correct
The GlobalProtect agent must be configured to gather endpoint security posture data (patches, antivirus, disk encryption).
- ✗
Configure static ARP entries on the GlobalProtect gateway.
Why it's wrong here
ARP entries are unrelated to endpoint security posture profiling.
- ✓
Reference the created HIP Object or Profile within Security policy rules.
Why this is correct
Security rules evaluate the collected HIP data against defined profiles to allow or block traffic.
- ✗
Deploy WildFire appliance hardware at every branch location.
Why it's wrong here
WildFire is a cloud-based threat analysis service, not a local endpoint inspection tool.
- ✗
Install a local proxy server on every mobile device.
Why it's wrong here
Proxy servers are not required for HIP data collection.
