Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
The firewall_timeout is the time in seconds to wait for a verdict from the Guardium system if timed out. Look at firewall_fail_close value to know whether to block or allow the connection. The value can be any integer value.
The firewall_fail_close: If the verdict does not come back from the Guardium system and the firewall_timeout is passed, then if firewall_close = 0 the connection will go through; if firewall_close=1 the connection will be blocked.

Correct Answer should be B. Because the session run an sql and stap went to check Collector for policy for that sql and found that collector is down so it will wait for 10 sec and then block the session ifself.
