True or False: Policy Inheritance allows child scope policies to be automatically inherited from parent scope policies.

The statement is true because policy inheritance is a fundamental feature in many firewall management systems, including SonicWall. This mechanism enables configurations defined at a parent policy level to be automatically passed down to child policies.

By implementing policy inheritance, administrators can streamline management processes and ensure consistency across different security policies. For instance, if a parent policy is established to restrict certain types of traffic, any child scope policies that inherit from this parent will automatically apply those restrictions unless explicitly overridden. This simplifies the configuration of security settings at various organizational levels or in different network segments, promoting efficiency and reducing the chance of misconfigurations.

The other answer choices highlight conditions or exceptions that do not apply to the fundamental principle of policy inheritance itself, which is generally a straightforward process across multiple types of firewall configurations. Thus, the mechanics of inheritance are consistent and are not limited by factors such as specific types of policies or variations between firewalls.
