Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.The translation rule automatically authorizes it
  2. B.The pool creates a permit at Policy 0
  3. C.Traffic still needs a matching firewall permit
  4. D.Only logged traffic requires authorization
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Traffic still needs a matching firewall permit

Central SNAT defines translation and does not grant access. All forwarded sessions still require applicable authorization; logging and pool existence do not create implicit permission.
