This is the correct answer because it describes the security policy installation flow for a Maestro Security Group. The SMO Master is the Security Group Member that acts as the leader and the single point of contact for the Management Server. The SMO Master verifies the policy and installs it first, then notifies the other SGMs that a new policy is available. The other SGMs fetch the policy from the SMO Master and install it in parallel.

Question 7
What is the default Distribution mode?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation Auto-topology is the default distribution mode for Maestro Security Groups. In this mode, the Orchestrator assigns packets to a Security Group Member based on the topology of the port defined in the gateway object. Each port is either in user mode or network mode depending on the topology. User mode means that the port is connected to the internal network and network mode means that the port is connected to the external network. The Orchestrator uses a hash function to map each source IP or destination IP to a specific SGM, depending on the mode of the port. This mode ensures that all packets with the same source IP or destination IP are processed by the same SGM, regardless of the port or protocol.
