PaloAlto Firewall & VPN Specialist

A single, end-to-end Palo Alto Networks firewall and VPN program that combines the full PCNSA (Network Security Administrator) and PCNSE (Network Security Engineer) blueprints. You start by mastering day-to-day administration of Palo Alto next-generation firewalls: device management, objects, security and NAT policy, and App-ID, Content-ID and User-ID based traffic security. You then move into engineer-level skills: core architecture, deploying and configuring features and subscriptions, IPsec site-to-site and GlobalProtect VPNs, centralized management with Panorama, operations and deep troubleshooting. Every topic is taught hands-on on real Palo Alto firewalls and Panorama, so you finish ready to design, secure and operate enterprise Palo Alto deployments and to clear both the PCNSA and PCNSE examinations.

What you learn

Overview of topics covered in this course

This module teaches you how to manage and configure Palo Alto firewalls in real-world environments. You’ll learn how to use management interfaces, set up secure access methods, and enforce restrictions. Identity management, authentication profiles, and role-based access ensure only the right people manage devices. You’ll practice working with firewall configurations: understanding running vs. candidate configs, saving, exporting, and backing up settings. Panorama management is introduced, showing how to push policies and updates across multiple firewalls in a hierarchy. You’ll also schedule dynamic updates, configure security zones, and set up firewall interfaces to ensure secure and efficient traffic flow.
