John Adams is an HR partner in the ACME organization. ACME IT wants to limit access to HR servers
to designated IP addresses to minimize malware infection and unauthorized access risks. Thus, the
gateway policy permits access only from John’s desktop which is assigned a static IP address
10.0.0.19.
John received a laptop and wants to access the HR Web Server from anywhere in the organization.
The IT department gave the laptop a static IP address, but that limits him to operating it only from
his desk. The current Rule Base contains a rule that lets John Adams access the HR Web Server from
his laptop with a static IP (10.0.0.19). He wants to move around the organization and continue to
have access to the HR Web Server.
To make this scenario work, the IT administrator:
1) Enables Identity Awareness on a gateway, selects AD Query as one of the Identity Sources installs
the policy.
2) Adds an access role object to the Firewall Rule Base that lets John Adams PC access the HR Web
Server from any machine and from any location.
John plugged in his laptop to the network on a different network segment and he is not able to
connect. How does he solve this problem?
A.
John should lock and unlock the computer
B.
Investigate this as a network connectivity issue
C.
John should install the Identity Awareness Agent
D.
The firewall admin should install the Security Policy
