About this course

Course DescriptionWelcome to the ultimate, hands-on masterclass for mastering Palo Alto Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW). Whether you are a network engineer looking to transition into security, or a security professional aiming to master the industry's leading firewall platform, this course provides the deep architectural knowledge and practical lab experience you need.This course doesn't just show you how to click buttons in a GUI. You will build a live lab from scratch, implement complex advanced routing protocols (OSPF, BGP, MP-BGP), deploy multiple variations of Network Address Translation (NAT), and architect robust VPN tunnels—including cross-vendor integrations with Cisco, Fortinet, CheckPoint, and Juniper.By the end of this course, you will have enterprise-grade, real-world skills required to configure, manage, and troubleshoot Palo Alto firewalls in complex corporate environments.Course Content & SyllabusSection 1: Security Platform and ArchitectureIntroduction to Next-Generation FirewallsPalo Alto Firewall Architecture OverviewSection 2: Initial Configuration & Lab SetupStep-by-Step Palo Alto Lab Environment SetupNavigating the Basics: GUI vs. CLICore Concepts: Zone ImplementationSection 3: Interface Configuration & Basic RoutingIPv4 Static Routing via GUI/CLIIPv4 Default Routing ConfigurationsConfiguring IPv4 Path Monitoring for FailoverSection 4: Advanced Routing (IPv4 & IPv6)IPv4 RIP Implementation & Advanced TroubleshootingIPv4 OSPF Implementation & Multi-Area TroubleshootingIPv4 BGP Implementation & Enterprise TroubleshootingIPv6 Routing: Static, Default, and Path MonitoringIPv6 OSPFv3 Implementation & Troubleshooting
