Palo Alto Networks EDU-210 Firewall Essentials – Configuration and Management

Designed to help students configure and manage the essential features of Palo Alto networks next generation firewalls.
Course Duration

5 Days

Target Audience

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

Course Overview

  • Configure and manage the essential features of Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls
  • Configure and manage Security and NAT policies
  • Configure and manage Threat Prevention strategies to block known and unknown threats
  • Monitor network traffic using the interactive web interface and firewall reports

This training is the most important course as it covers all the fundamentals to understand the Next-Generation FireWall from the ground up. Even experienced firewall engineers take a lot out of this course as it includes, besides the architecture and management essentials, topics like Application Identification, Content ID (IPS, Anti-Virus/-Spyware, URL Filtering, File Blocking), SSL Decryption and User Identification which are all features usually not supported by legacy firewalls. In addition to the official content, we also teach security best practices that will enable students to fully leverage the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall’s potential as we not only explain the theory but how to use every feature in real life.
