Green River Community College Palo Alto Firewall Basic Setup Analysis

 

You are the network administrator for company ABC. Your new Palo Alto firewall has arrived and you are excited to get it setup and running. Your company has been experiencing strange activity (probes, etc.) coming from an IP address 58.218.199.147 on ports associated with DNS, email, web and remote desktop.

1. You are tasked with setting up your new Palo Alto firewall so that any traffic that originates from the offending IP address is blocked.

2. You are also tasked with locking down all unused ports. .

3. Your supervisor also wants you to make sure that DNS can only go between your LAN hosts and the DC1 & DC2 servers (192.168.1.10 & 192.168.1.11).

4. Furthermore he wants DC1 & DC2 to receive DNS updates ONLY from your ISP DNS servers (Comcast Business – you can find out what IP addresses they use).Note: this is hypothetical company and you don’t need actual palo alto firewall access.
