Palo alto application for practice.

Hi guys,

I am studying currently for PCNSE certification.  What palo alto application I should download if I want to practice? I am using an apple computer.  I would appreciated if someone can send me a link about it. Thanks in advance

Hi

 

Sign up or log in to https://beacon.paloaltonetworks.com/.

Once in, search for 'pcnse' and you'll get some results for including a 'study guide' and 'exam practice questions'. All of these are done through your browser.

 

If you are looking for hands-on your best option is a VM-series firewall with a lab license if you can buy one. You have several hypervisors to choose from (hyper-v, esx, kvm, etc).

Kindly note though that PCNSE also contains questions about Panorama which is another purchase if you want to hands-on study it.

 

Good luck,

Shai

Hi Shai,

Thank you for your replay. That meant there is nothing someone can have to  have hands on to practice without buying these applications!

@Dilton111,

Correct. You can use free credits in AWS/Azure to spin up the VM series, the VMs available though Beacon (although last I checked those weren't running the latest PAN-OS versions) or the VM trial that PAN offers. In general, PAN expects you to have been working with PAN already and already have hands-on experience prior to attempting to take this exam.
