It was mentioned the product strives to "Allow applications but secure them, rather than just block them". This comment seems to refer to the ability to allow applications but denying file transfers within them. How exactly does it distinguish?
Yes, that is correct. We can see the application functions within many applications and we can see the file types, so depending on your policy you can allow IM use, but block the file xfer functions or the file itself.
The PA-7050 can be deployed in a number of modes: L2, L3, or what’s called ‘virtual wire’, which allows it to be deployed as a ‘bump in the wire’. Other than that, it’s deployed like any other firewall… #pa7050
