What you’ll learn

The Palo Alto Networks Firewall Configuration and Management (EDU-210) course is an instructor-led training that will help you to:

  • Configure and manage the essential features of Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation FireWalls
  • Configure and manage Security and NAT policies
  • Configure and manage Threat Prevention strategies to block known and unknown threats
  • Monitor network traffic using the interactive web interface and firewall reports

This training is the most important course as it covers all the fundamentals to understand the Next-Generation FireWall from the ground up. Even experienced firewall engineers take a lot out of this course as it includes, besides the architecture and management essentials, topics like Application Identification, Content ID (IPS, Anti-Virus/-Spyware, URL Filtering, File Blocking), SSL Decryption and User Identification which are all features usually not supported by legacy firewalls. In addition to the official content, we also teach security best practices that will enable students to fully leverage the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall’s potential as we not only explain the theory but how to use every feature in real life. Please see the course content for the detailed agenda.

Best Practices & Real Life Experience

​Let the Experience and Passion of our instructor guide you – Consigas is an Authorized Global Training Partner and was recognised with the “Excellence in Training Award” in 2019 and 2016 by Palo Alto Networks. The difference is made by our instructors who have many years of field experience which they bring with them into the classroom.

All of our instructors are security consultants that design, implement, migrate, manage and support Palo Alto Networks solutions all day, every day. It’s this experience that they bring into the classroom to explain not only the theory but how to use the FireWall in real-life. Customers tell us that this is most valuable for them and what differentiates our Palo Alto 210 training from most other training partners.

Certification

The Firewall Configuration and Management (PAN EDU 210) course covers all the content required for the PCNSA “Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Administrator” certification.

The recommended enablement path for the PCNSE certification is first to take the “Firewall: Configuration and Management” (EDU-210) course, followed by the Panorama: Managing Firewalls at Scale (EDU-220) and the “Firewall Troubleshooting” (EDU-330) in either order.

Video Recordings

It’s impossible to remember everything in live training, which is why we are recording the online class and share the video with you. If you like to start studying right away, we can share the videos of a previous course and lab access immediately once your booking is confirmed.

Lab Access for 3 month

You will have access to your own dedicated lab which you can use not only during the class but for a full three months without any time or usage limit. Your virtual lab consists of a Client Workstation, a FireWall and an Extranet Server for practical exercises as described in the lab guide. As a bonus, which is not officially part of the course, your lab features the Expedition Migration Tool.
