  1. Correct Answer A
    CCSE Guide

    Packets attempting to establish a new TCP connection, or a comparable UDP connection table
    entry in the Firewall, are handled in the slow path because they require more processing. Once
    the first packet is seen by the Firewall and suitable connection information is offloaded to an
    appliance operating system, further packets are handled at the operating system’s interruptlevel code.

  2. Correct is a
    it is the first packet
    traffic from Source to Google.com , the first packet because you didn´t know the destination ip

  3. This is tricky question.
    First packet will go Slow Path, but all others Medium Path.
    Is this question asking about first packet or other packets?

  4. Medium path (PXL) – Packet flow when the packet is handled by the SecureXL device, except for IPS (some protections) / VPN (in some configurations) / Application Control / Content Awareness / Anti-Virus / Anti-Bot / HTTPS Inspection / Proxy mode / Mobile Access / VoIP / Web Portals. The CoreXL layer passes the packet to one of the CoreXL FW instances to perform the processing (even when CoreXL is disabled, the CoreXL infrastructure is used by SecureXL device to send the packet to the single FW instance that still functions).
