Secure Network Administrationintermediate
Match each firewall and VPN verification indicator to the condition it confirms: Indicators: 1. Green IKE status 2. Green IPsec status 3. Traffic log entry showing 'Allow' Conditions: A. Phase 2 Security Associations (SAs) are active to protect data transit B. Phase 1 authentication and key exchange negotiation are successfully established C. A security policy rule matched the traffic and permitted the session
Answer
1 - B, 2 - A, 3 - C
Explanation
### The pairs
| Item | Matches | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Green IKE status | IKE negotiation is established | IKE forms the negotiated relationship needed for the VPN peers to establish protection. |
| Green IPsec status | The IPsec tunnel security association is active | IPsec security associations represent the active protection parameters for tunnel traffic. |
| Traffic log with Allow and expected addresses | The firewall permitted the observed traffic under a matching rule | The log records the addresses and policy result for a session, helping confirm the rule decision. |
### Terms
- **IKE**: Internet Key Exchange, the protocol used to negotiate VPN settings.
- **IPsec**: Internet Protocol Security, used to protect traffic.
### Remember
IKE and IPsec statuses describe tunnel establishment; a traffic log describes handling of a session.
