    B. inline

    “When configured in a passive deployment, the system cannot take certain actions such as blocking or shaping traffic. Passive interfaces receive all traffic unconditionally and no traffic received on these interfaces is retransmitted.”
    (FPMC Config Guide v621)

      Just came here to provide feedback because I took and passed the exam today. I answered this. My result was 1000. It is “inline” only. No other answer is valid.

      Good luck for the next test takers.

    No sure either B or D.
    D seem’s stupid but from config guide:
    When you view intrusion events, workflows can include the inline result, which indicates whether traffic was actually dropped, or whether it only would have dropped. When a packet matches a drop rule, the inline result is:
    • Dropped , for packets dropped by a correctly configured inline deployment with drop behavior enabled
    • Would have dropped, for packets that were not dropped either because your device is deployed passively or because drop behavior is disabled. Note that the inline result is always Would have dropped for packets seen while the system is pruning, regardless of deployment.

    In addition to custom policies that you create, the system provides two custom policies: Initial Inline Policy and Initial Passive Policy. These two intrusion policies use the Balanced Security and Connectivity intrusion policy as their base. The only difference between them is their Drop When Inline setting, which enables drop behavior in the inline policy and disables it in the passive policy
