Choose the single best answer.

  2. B.All URL rules require proxy inspection
  3. C.Subdomains inherit only the AV action
  4. D.The simple hostname entry does not cover other subdomains
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • The simple hostname entry does not cover other subdomains

Simple matching does not automatically include every hostname variant. Authentication, proxy-only behavior and AV inheritance are not the rule described.
