Selected Answer: A
I am not sure what you are all relating to, but .. AD groups are always gathered from LDAP(AD servers), so an LDAP profile must be distributed via template from Panorama. Each FW gets his groups then directly from LDAP. The MASTER DEVICE is ONLY used for User-ID information gathering! Please take a look in Panorama Device groups, label says "master device is the firewall which Panorama gathers user ID info for use in policies". Nothing to do with groups here! So answer CANNOT be D if the questrion is related to AD groups! Only A or B are possible.

Answer is C Direct from Panorama, when you select a User ID Master device the check option for it specifies to store groups too. "Store users and groups from Master Device if Reporting and Filtering on Groups is enabled in Panorama Settings"

It says "to retrieve groups from Panorama" so clearly panorama should act as user-id distributor for firewalls

"Configuring Group Mappings on Firewalls using Panorama without the master device." "Go to Device > User Identification > Group Mapping Settings and generate a new Group Mapping Profile. During the process, select the LDAP Server Profile that was pushed from Panorama."

Selected Answer: A
Configuring a master device within a device group in Panorama is not directly related to retrieving groups from an LDAP directory or solving issues with LDAP group retrieval. The concept of a "master device" in Panorama is more related to managing configurations and pushing them to other devices within the device group, rather than LDAP group retrieval.

Answer is D. To simplify the creation or modification of user- and group-based policies, you can use a Master Device to add the group names to drop-down lists in security policy rules. You need to designate a firewall as a Master Device for each device group. After you add a Master Device, the device group inherits all policies defined on the master device; for this reason, it should be a standalone, dedicated device to be used for that device group. Alternatively, you can enable username-to-user group mapping using an LDAP profile with a Group Include List.

This question is not formed right. It is asking about "retrieving groups from Panorama", but it should be about "Panorama retrieving groups from Firewall".

D is correct but you still need to get the group information on the master device (firewall) which I already configured as decried in A. Please note: You cannot configure A on Panorama. https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClFQCA0 I guess what I am trying to say: I don't like the question. But D seems to be the most correct answer, ignoring how the Group information is provided to the FW.
