Which action is only taken during slow path in the NGFW policy?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

In Palo Alto Networks' Single-Pass Parallel Processing (SP3) architecture, SSL/TLS decryption occurs only during the slow path when the firewall first encounters a new session.
SSL/TLS decryption, which requires CPU-intensive cryptographic operations, is performed during the slow path when establishing new sessions. Once decrypted, traffic is processed in the fast path for subsequent packets.
After the initial decryption in the slow path, decrypted traffic is handled by fast path for efficiency.
