You need to create an HTTP-proxy policy to a specific domain for software updates (example.com).
The update site has multiple subdomains and dynamic IP addresses on a content delivery network.
Which of these options is the best way to define the destination in your HTTP-proxy policy? (Select

C. Add IP addresses that correspond to each software update server in the domain.
D. Create an alias for all subdomains and known IP addresses for example.com. ANSW✅✅B
FQDN in a Policy:
In this exercise, you learn how to use FQDN in a policy to make an exception for destination domains
that can comprise many different subdomains and resolved IP addresses because the destinations
may be hosted on content delivery networks (CDN).

Verified by configuring SMTP-Proxy and a Proxy Action Configuration. Worth noting that this
question was a little tough to review.
To prevent certificate error warnings in your browser when you use deep content inspection with
the HTTPS proxy, you can export the proxy authority certificate
from the Firebox and import that certificate to all client devices.
A. True
B. False ANSW✅✅A. True
Default Proxy Authority Certificate
You can use the default self-signed Proxy Authority CA certificate on the Firebox or XTM device for
use with the HTTPS Proxy content inspection features. Your device re-encrypts the content it has
inspected with this Proxy Authority self-signed certificate. When you use this default certificate, end
users without a copy of this certificate see a warning in their web browser when they connect to a
secure web site with HTTPS. To avoid these warnings, you can export the Proxy Authority certificate
from the XTM device and import the certificate on your client devices.
