Palo Alto Networks Firewall 10.0: Essentials – Configuration and Management (EDU-210)

Security Engineers, Security Administrators, Security Operations Specialists, Security Analysts, and Support Staff

Successful completion of this five-day, instructor-led course should enhance the student’s understanding of how to configure and manage Palo Alto Networks NextGeneration Firewalls. The course includes hands-on experience configuring, managing, and monitoring a firewall in a lab environment. 

Students must have a basic familiarity with networking concepts including routing, switching, and IP addressing. Students should also be familiar with basic port-based security concepts. Experience with other security technologies (IPS, proxy, and content filtering) is a plus.
