Exam NGFW-Engineer Topic 1 Question 102 Discussion

Actual exam question for Palo Alto Networks's NGFW-Engineer exam
Question #: 102
Topic #: 1
An administrator enables SSL Forward Proxy decryption using a self-signed certificate on a Palo Alto Networks firewall as the forward trust certificate. Shortly after, users report receiving "Your connection is not private" browser errors for all external websites.
What is the most likely cause of these widespread certificate errors?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

SSL Forward Proxy relies on the firewall acting as a trusted certificate authority. If the self-signed forward trust certificate is not installed in the trusted root certificate store of client devices, browsers will not trust the certificates generated by the firewall, resulting in widespread
"connection not private" warnings for all decrypted HTTPS sites.
