Juniper MX and SRX series devices support the integration of Seclntel feeds, which provide information about known command and control servers, for the purpose of blocking access to them. These devices can be configured to use the Seclntel feeds without the need for Security Director to manage the feeds.

EX series and QFX series devices are not capable of working in this situation, as they do not support the integration of Seclntel feeds.

According to the Juniper documentation, the two Juniper devices that work in this situation are MX Series devices and SRX Series devices. These devices can use the Juniper SecIntel feeds to block access to known command and control servers without using Security Director to manage the feeds. The Juniper SecIntel feeds are curated and verified threat intelligence data that are continuously collected from Juniper ATP Cloud, Juniper Threat Labs, and other sources. The SecIntel feeds include command and control IPs, URLs, certificate hashes, and domains that are used by attackers to control malware or maintain their connection to the network1.

The MX Series devices and the SRX Series devices can subscribe to the SecIntel feeds by using the following steps:

• Configure the SecIntel service on the device by specifying the SecIntel URL, the SecIntel policy, and the SecIntel license2.
• Configure the SecIntel policy on the device by specifying the SecIntel feeds, the SecIntel actions, and the SecIntel logging3.
• Apply the SecIntel policy to the security zones or the firewall policies on the device by using the secintel-policy option4.

Once the SecIntel service is configured and applied, the MX Series devices and the SRX Series devices will receive the SecIntel feeds from Juniper ATP Cloud and use them to block the traffic from or to the command and control servers. The SecIntel service will also send the SecIntel logs to Juniper ATP Cloud or a third-party SIEM solution for further analysis and reporting.

The following devices are not suitable or incorrect for this situation:

• EX Series devices: EX Series devices are Ethernet switches that can integrate with SecIntel to block infected hosts at the switch port. However, they cannot use the SecIntel feeds to block command and control servers, as they do not support the SecIntel service or policy.
• QFX Series devices: QFX Series devices are Ethernet switches that can integrate with SecIntel to block infected hosts at the switch port. However, they cannot use the SecIntel feeds to block command and control servers, as they do not support the SecIntel service or policy.

• The source address is translated because the traceoptions output shows that the source IP address 192.168.5.2 is translated to 192.168.100.1 and the source port 0 is translated to 14777. The traceoptions output also shows the flag flow_first_src_xlate, which indicates that this is the first time that source NAT is applied to this session.
• The packet is an SSH packet because the traceoptions output shows that the application protocol is tcp/22, which is the default port for SSH. The traceoptions output also shows the flag flow_tcp_syn, which indicates that this is the first packet of a TCP connection.

The three profiles that are configurable in a threat prevention policy are infected host profile, C&C profile, and malware profile. A threat prevention policy is a feature of Juniper ATP Cloud that provides protection and monitoring for selected threat profiles, including command and control servers, infected hosts, and malware. Using feeds from Juniper ATP Cloud and optional custom feeds that you configure, ingress and egress traffic is monitored for suspicious content and behavior. Based on a threat score, detected threats are evaluated and action may be taken once a verdict is reached. You can create a threat prevention policy by selecting one or more of the following profiles:

• Infected host profile: This profile detects and blocks traffic from hosts that are infected with malware or compromised by attackers. You can configure the threat score thresholds and the actions for different levels of severity. You can also enable Geo IP filtering to block traffic from or to specific countries or regions.
• C&C profile: This profile detects and blocks traffic to or from command and control servers that are used by attackers to control malware or botnets. You can configure the threat score thresholds and the actions for different levels of severity. You can also enable Geo IP filtering to block traffic from or to specific countries or regions.
• Malware profile: This profile detects and blocks traffic that contains malware or malicious content. You can configure the threat score thresholds and the actions for different levels of severity. You can also enable protocol-specific settings for HTTP and SMTP traffic, such as file type filtering, file size filtering, and file name filtering.

The other two profiles, device profile and SSL proxy profile, are not configurable in a threat prevention policy. A device profile is a feature of Policy Enforcer that defines the device type, the device group, and the device settings for the SRX Series devices that are enrolled with Juniper ATP Cloud. An SSL proxy profile is a feature of SRX Series devices that enables SSL proxy to decrypt and inspect SSL/TLS traffic for threats and policy violations.

An IKE security association (SA) is a set of parameters that define how the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol will authenticate and establish the secure channel between the IPsec VPN peers. When you configure an IPsec VPN, one IKE SA is created between the peers, regardless of how many CoS forwarding classes are used to separate the traffic. The SA will be used to negotiate the IPsec SA parameters, such as encryption algorithms and keys.

In this scenario, only 1 IKE security association is required between the IPsec peers, no matter how many CoS forwarding classes are used to separate the voice and data traffic.

 You are connecting two remote sites to your corporate headquarters site. You must ensure that traffic passes through the corporate headquarters. In this scenario, the VPN that should be used is:

• D. Hub-and-spoke IPsec VPN with the corporate firewall acting as the hub device. A hub-and-spoke IPsec VPN is a type of VPN that connects multiple remote sites to a central site, or hub, over a public network. The hub site acts as a gateway for the remote sites and provides security and routing services. The remote sites, or spokes, communicate with each other through the hub site. The hub site and the spoke sites use IPsec tunnels to encrypt and authenticate the traffic between them. A hub-and-spoke IPsec VPN is suitable for connecting two remote sites to your corporate headquarters site, because it allows you to control the traffic flow and enforce security policies at the hub site. The corporate firewall can act as the hub device and provide IPsec VPN services to the remote sites1.

The other options are incorrect because:

• A. Full mesh IPsec VPNs with tunnels between all sites. A full mesh IPsec VPN is a type of VPN that connects every site to every other site over a public network. Each site has an IPsec tunnel with every other site, forming a mesh topology. A full mesh IPsec VPN provides direct and secure communication between any pair of sites, but it also requires a large number of IPsec tunnels and complex configuration. A full mesh IPsec VPN is not suitable for connecting two remote sites to your corporate headquarters site, because it does not ensure that traffic passes through the corporate headquarters site, and it may introduce unnecessary overhead and complexity2.
• B. A full mesh Layer 3 VPN with the BGP route reflector behind the corporate firewall device. A full mesh Layer 3 VPN is a type of VPN that uses MPLS and BGP to provide Layer 3 connectivity and routing between multiple sites over a service provider’s network. Each site has a BGP session with every other site, forming a full mesh topology. A BGP route reflector is a device that reduces the number of BGP sessions required in a full mesh topology by reflecting routes between its clients. A full mesh Layer 3 VPN with the BGP route reflector behind the corporate firewall device is not suitable for connecting two remote sites to your corporate headquarters site, because it does not ensure that traffic passes through the corporate firewall device, and it may require additional configuration and coordination with the service provider3.
• C. A Layer 3 VPN with the corporate firewall acting as the hub device. A Layer 3 VPN is a type of VPN that uses MPLS and BGP to provide Layer 3 connectivity and routing between multiple sites over a service provider’s network. A Layer 3 VPN can have different topologies, such as full mesh, hub-and-spoke, or partial mesh. A Layer 3 VPN with the corporate firewall acting as the hub device is not suitable for connecting two remote sites to your corporate headquarters site, because the corporate firewall may not support MPLS and BGP, and it may require additional configuration and coordination with the service provider3.

Source NAT is a type of NAT that is used to translate the source IP address and port number of a packet. This is typically used to allow multiple devices on a private network to access the internet using a single public IP address. In the exhibit, we can see that the source IP address and port number of the packet are being translated from 10.10.10.2/61606 to 203.0.113.100/179. This is a clear indication that Source NAT is being performed. References:

The security feature that bypasses routing or switching lookup is transparent mode. The other options are incorrect because:

• B. Secure wire is a feature that allows you to connect two interfaces on the same device and forward traffic between them without any processing. Secure wire does not bypass routing or switching lookup, but rather eliminates them altogether1.
• C. Mixed mode is a mode of operation for SRX Series devices that allows you to configure both transparent mode and switching mode on the same device. Mixed mode does not bypass routing or switching lookup, but rather uses them depending on the interface type2.
• D. MACsec (Media Access Control Security) is a feature that provides encryption and authentication for Layer 2 traffic. MACsec does not bypass routing or switching lookup, but rather operates at a lower layer3.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. Transparent mode is a mode of operation for SRX Series devices that provides Layer 2 bridging capabilities with full security services. In transparent mode, the SRX Series device acts as a bridge between two network segments and inspects the packets without modifying the source or destination information in the IP packet header. The SRX Series device does not have an IP address in transparent mode, except for the management interface. Transparent mode bypasses routing or switching lookup, because the SRX Series device does not perform any routing or switching functions, but rather forwards the packets based on the MAC addresses4.
