When using Adaptive Threat Profiling, which two deployment modes are available on SRX Series devices?
(Choose two.)
Correct Answer: B,C
The correct answers are B and C. Adaptive Threat Profiling allows SRX Series Firewalls to act either as inline enforcement devices or as tap-based sensors. In an inline deployment, the SRX is directly in the traffic path and can enforce policy actions such as blocking, denying, or adding threat indicators to Security Intelligence feeds for real-time mitigation. In a tap deployment, the SRX observes copied traffic from a TAP/SPAN-style feed and contributes intelligence without being the active forwarding device. Juniper's ATP Cloud documentation states that Adaptive Threat Profiling enables SRX devices to be deployed as sensors on Tap ports, identifying and sharing intelligence to inline devices for real-time enforcement. It also describes a "Tap- based SRX Series Firewall sensor" and contrasts it with an inline device.
Option A, bridge, is not the deployment mode being tested here. Bridge/transparent forwarding is a firewall deployment style, not the named Adaptive Threat Profiling mode. Option D, promiscuous, is also wrong; promiscuous mode is an interface behavior, not the ATP Adaptive Threat Profiling deployment model.
