1.Which two statements about antivirus scanning mode are true? (Choose two.)
A. In proxy-based inspection mode, files bigger than the buffer size are scanned.
B. In flow-based inspection mode, FortiGate buffers the file, but also simultaneously
transmits it to the client.
C. In proxy-based inspection mode, antivirus scanning buffers the whole file for
scanning, before sending it to the client.
D. In flow-based inspection mode, files bigger than the buffer size are scanned.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
An antivirus profile in full scan mode buffers up to your specified file size limit. The
default is 10 MB. That is large enough for most files, except video files. If your
FortiGate model has more RAM, you may be able to increase this threshold. Without
a limit, very large files could exhaust the scan memory. So, this threshold balances

m
risk and performance. Is this tradeoff unique to FortiGate, or to a specific model? No.

xa
E
Regardless of vendor or model, you must make a choice. This is because of the

.0
-7
difference between scans in theory, that have no limits, and scans on real-world

T
FG
devices, that have finite RAM. In order to detect 100% of malware regardless of file

4_
E
S
size, a firewall would need infinitely large RAM―something that no device has in the

N
et
real world. Most viruses are very small. This table shows a typical tradeoff. You can
in
rt
see that with the default 10 MB threshold, only 0.01% of viruses pass through.

FortiGate_Security_6.4 page 384

When using FortiGuard category filtering to allow or block access to a website, one
option is to make a web rating override and define the website in a different category.
Web ratings are only for host names― "no URLs or wildcard characters are allowed".

E

lN

D. Enable Auto-negotiate and Autokey Keep Alive on the phase 2 configuration of

ea

both tunnels.
R

Answer: B,C
Explanation:
B - because the customer requires the tunnels to notify when a tunnel goes down.
DPD is designed for that purpose. To send a packet over a firewall to determine a
failover for the next tunnel after a specific amount of time of not receiving a response
from its peer.
C - remember when it comes to choosing a route with regards to Administrative
Distance. The route with the lowest distance for that particular route will be chosen.
So, by configuring a lower routing distance on the primary tunnel, means that the
primary tunnel
will be chosen to route packets towards their destination.

Which statement is correct if a user is unable to receive a block replacement
message when downloading an infected file for the first time?
A. The firewall policy performs the full content inspection on the file.
B. The flow-based inspection is used, which resets the last packet to the user.
C. The volume of traffic being inspected is too high for this model of FortiGate.
D. The intrusion prevention security profile needs to be enabled when using flow-
based inspection mode.
Answer: B
Explanation:
• "ONLY" If the virus is detected at the "START" of the connection, the IPS engine
sends the block replacement message immediately
• When a virus is detected on a TCP session (FIRST TIME), but where "SOME

m
PACKETS" have been already forwarded to the receiver, FortiGate "resets the

xa
E
connection" and does not send the last piece of the file. Although the receiver got

.0
-7
most of the file content, the file has been truncated and therefore, can’t be opened.

T
FG
The IPS engine also caches the URL of the infected file, so that if a "SECOND

4_
E
S
ATTEMPT" to transmit the file is made, the IPS engine will then send a block

N
et
replacement message to the client instead of scanning the file again.
in
rt
In flow mode, the FortiGate drops the last packet killing the file. But because of that
Fo
s

the block replacement message cannot be displayed. If the file is attempted to

as
P

download again the block message will be shown.
