The answer is B. Log forwarding in the right is shown "None", Log forwarding profile should be selected.

Not sure why everyone is picking B. That's config for one rule, not the entire firewall, and there's a URL-Filtering profile added. URL-Filtering logs are different than "only Traffic logs". Look at at the post above which mentioned C and also notice Panorama is checked.

it is definitely B. Security Profiles are not set, so no threat logs can be sent. And there is not log forwarding profile, so no traffic log either

If the traffic log checkbox was not checked when creating the log forwarding profile, other logs will be sent but traffic log. I vote for B.

I think it should be B. There is no need to select a certificate, you can just use predefined, so I think that rules out D.

I vote for option B, if the log forwarding profile is None, any logs will be sent to Panorama.

B & D both showing incorrect configuration, as in B we see log forwarding profiles set to none which means no syslog traffic will be sent, while in D we can no cert file selected for Panorama communication, but B may be better as it "would stop only Traffic logs"

B does make the most sense. A Log Forwarding profile can be configured to filter out certain logs using the Filter Builder.

Consider option C. This question is still on the PCNSE exam. I've seen it come up twice. I don't know that I'm getting it correct by choosing B. The question specifically says only Traffic logs are missing. If the Log Forwarding Profile is missing, this would affect Threat logs as well. In option C, there is a Syslog server. If you see the "Custom Log Format," you can change just the format for Traffic logs and this could break how Panorama ingests those logs. I couldn't find anything on Palo Alto networks sites, but here's forum where a Palo Alto user was having a similar issue with Splunk. https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/Custom-Log-Format-Parsing-issues/m-p/548818

I get the question, but syslog are normally for external monitoring like Splunk or Solarwinds. The Logging forwarding profile must be configured and it is set to none right now. Under log forwarding you can set different profiles for each log type - threat, traffic etc. This is where the answer really should be.
