A network administrator deploys a new firewall with a base license that allows for basic packet filtering and VPN capabilities. The organization requires advanced malware protection and intrusion prevention services, so an additional license for these services was purchased and applied. After configuring the necessary policies for these advanced services, the administrator notices that the firewall is still not inspecting traffic for malware or intrusions. Which of the following actions should the administrator take FIRST to address the issue?
Consult with the ISP/MSP to ensure they support advanced security services.
Check if the firewall's software version supports the advanced features.
Reset the firewall configurations to their default settings.
Verify the license activation status on the firewall.
