Policy Enforcer is a Junos Space Security Director component that allows updated security policies to be deployed across Juniper SRX Series firewalls, MX Series 5G Universal Routing Platforms, EX Series Ethernet Switches, QFX Series Switches, and third-party network devices1. Policy Enforcer can leverage the DDoS protection feature of Juniper devices to detect and mitigate DDoS attacks on the network. The DDoS protection feature is based on two main components: the classification of host-bound control plane traffic and a hierarchical set of individual- and aggregate-level policers that cap the volume of control plane traffic that each protocol type is able to send to the Routing Engine (RE) for processing2. The DDoS protection feature is supported on MX Series routers and QFX Series switches, among other devices3. Therefore, the correct devices to use for DDoS protection with Policy Enforcer are MX and QFX.

The other options are not correct for the following reasons:

• vQFX is a virtual switch that emulates the QFX Series switches for testing and development purposes. It does not support the DDoS protection feature4.
• vMX is a virtual router that emulates the MX Series routers for testing and development purposes. It does not support the DDoS protection feature.

• Referring to the SRX Series flow module diagram shown in the exhibit, application security is processed at the Services ALGs stage. Application Layer Gateways (ALGs) are software components that enable the SRX Series device to provide application-level security for specific protocols and applications1.
• ALGs inspect the application layer payload of packets and perform various actions, such as modifying the payload, opening pinholes, creating sessions, applying security policies, and enforcing application-specific behavior12.
• ALGs are required for protocols and applications that embed IP address information or port numbers in the application layer data, that open secondary connections, or that are dynamically assigned ports1. Some examples of protocols and applications that require ALGs are FTP, SIP, H.323, RTSP, PPTP, and DNS2.
• ALGs are configured as part of the security policy and are applied to the traffic that matches the policy criteria. ALGs can also be enabled or disabled globally or per zone12.

 This is because the error message indicates that the client device does not trust the certificate authority that issued the certificate for the external server. Therefore, you need to import the root CA certificate from the SRX Series device to the client device and add it to the trusted certificate store. This will allow the client device to verify the identity of the SRX Series device and accept the certificates it generates for the external servers3.

The other options are not correct because:

• A. Load a known good, but expired. CA certificate onto the SRX Series device. This will not solve the problem because the client device will still reject the certificates from the SRX Series device if they are signed by an expired CA certificate. The expiration date of the CA certificate is one of the factors that the client device checks when validating the certificate2.
• B. Install a new SRX Series device to act as the client proxy. This will not solve the problem because the new SRX Series device will still need to have a root CA certificate configured and imported to the client devices. The problem is not with the SRX Series device itself, but with the trust relationship between the SRX Series device and the client devices2.
• C. Reboot the SRX Series device. This will not solve the problem because rebooting the SRX Series device will not change the configuration or the certificates on the SRX Series device or the client devices. The problem is not caused by a temporary glitch or a malfunction, but by a mismatch between the certificates on the SRX Series device and the client devices2.
