The safer , easier way to help you pass any IT exams.
Which two key configuration changes are needed on FortiGate to meet the design requirements?
(Choose two,)
A. Configure a high distance on the static route for the primary tunnel, and a lower distance on the static
route for the secondary tunnel.
B. Enable Dead Peer Detection.
C. Configure a lower distance on the static route for the primary tunnel, and a higher distance on the
static route for the secondary tunnel.
D. Enable Auto-negotiate and Autokey Keep Alive on the phase 2 configuration of both tunnels.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
Study Guide – IPsec VPN – IPsec configuration – Phase 1 Network.
When Dead Peer Detection (DPD) is enabled, DPD probes are sent to detect a failed tunnel and bring it
down before its IPsec SAs expire. This failure detection mechanism is very useful when you have
redundant paths to the same destination, and you want to failover to a backup connection when the
primary connection fails to keep the connectivity between the sites up.
There are three DPD modes. On demand is the default mode.
Study Guide – IPsec VPN – Redundant VPNs.
Add one phase 1 configuration for each tunnel. DPD should be enabled on both ends.
Add at least one phase 2 definition for each phase 1.
Add one static route for each path. Use distance or priority to select primary routes over backup routes
(routes for the primary VPN must have a lower distance or lower priority than the backup). Alternatively,
use dynamic routing.
Configure FW policies for each IPsec interface.
33.What is the limitation of using a URL list and application control on the same firewall policy, in NGFW
policy-based mode?
A. It limits the scanning of application traffic to the DNS protocol only.
B. It limits the scanning of application traffic to use parent signatures only.
C. It limits the scanning of application traffic to the browser-based technology category only.
D. It limits the scanning of application traffic to the application category only.
Answer: D
Explanation:
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/5.6.0/cookbook/38324/ngfw-policy-based-mode
In policy-based mode on a next-generation firewall (NGFW), you can use a URL list and application
control in the same firewall policy to control traffic to and from specific websites or applications. However,
there is a limitation to consider when using these features together:
It limits the scanning of application traffic to the application category only: The URL list and application
control both rely on the firewall to inspect traffic and make decisions about what to allow or block.
However, the URL list is limited to inspecting traffic at the URL level, while the application control can
inspect traffic at a deeper level, such as at the application layer. This means that the application control
is more comprehensive and can provide more granular control over specific applications, while the URL
list is limited to controlling traffic at the URL level.

Answer: A,C
41.Which two statements about FortiGate FSSO agentless polling mode are true? (Choose two.)
A. FortiGate uses the AD server as the collector agent.
B. FortiGate uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs from the DCs.
C. FortiGate does not support workstation check .
D. FortiGate directs the collector agent to use a remote LDAP server.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
You can deploy FSSO w/o installing an agent. FG polls the DCs directly, instead of receiving logon info
indirectly from a collector agent.
Because FG collects all of the data itself, agentless polling mode requires greater system resources, and
it doesn't scale as easily.
Agentless polling mode operates in a similar way to WinSecLog, but with only two event IDs: 4768 and
4769. Because there's no collector agent, FG uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs from
the DCs.
FG acts as a collector. It 's responsible for polling on top of its normal FSSO tasks but does not have all
the extra features, such as workstation checks, that are available with the external collector agent.

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 PACKETS" have been
already forwarded to the receiver, FortiGate "resets the connection" and does not send the last piece of
the file. Although the receiver got most of the file content, the file has been truncated and therefore, can't
26 / 69
The safer , easier way to help you pass any IT exams.
be opened. The IPS engine also caches the URL of the infected file, so that if a "SECOND ATTEMPT" to
transmit the file is made, the IPS engine will then send a block replacement message to the client
instead of scanning the file again.
In flow mode, the FortiGate drops the last packet killing the file. But because of that the block
replacement message cannot be displayed. If the file is attempted to download again the block message
will be shown.
55.The HTTP inspection process in web filtering follows a specific order when multiple features are

Explanation:
On a FortiGate device, reliable logging is a feature that helps to prevent the loss of log messages when
the local disk is full. When reliable logging is enabled, the FortiGate will store log messages in a buffer
until they can be written to the local disk. This helps to ensure that log messages are not lost due to a full
disk, allowing administrators to maintain an accurate record of activity on the network. Reliable logging is
not enabled by default in all configuration scenarios, and it does not encrypt the transmission of logs or
require the use of the CLI to be configured. However, it is a useful feature to enable in order to maintain
a comprehensive record of activity on the network and help with troubleshooting and security analysis.

Answer: C
Explanation:
44 / 69
The safer , easier way to help you pass any IT exams.
For an IPsec VPN between site A and site B, the administrator has configured the local quick mode
selector for site A as 192.168.1.0/24 and the remote quick mode selector as 192.168.2.0/24. This means
that the VPN will allow traffic to and from the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet at site A to reach the 192.168.2.0/24
subnet at site B.
To complete the configuration, the administrator must configure the local quick mode selector for site B.
To do this, the administrator must use the same subnet as the remote quick mode selector for site A,
which is 192.168.2.0/24. This will allow traffic to and from the 192.168.2.0/24 subnet at site B to reach
the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet at site A.
Therefore, the administrator must configure the local quick mode selector for site B as 192.168.2.0/24.

A. FGCP elects the primary FortiGate device.
B. FGCP is not used when FortiGate is in transparent mode.
C. FGCP runs only over the heartbeat links.
D. FGCP is used to discover FortiGate devices in different HA groups.
Answer: A,C
Explanation:
The FGCP (FortiGate Clustering Protocol) is a protocol that is used to manage high availability (HA)
clusters of FortiGate devices.
It performs several functions, including the following:
FGCP elects the primary FortiGate device: In an HA cluster, FGCP is used to determine which FortiGate
device will be the primary device, responsible for handling traffic and making decisions about what to
allow or block. FGCP uses a variety of factors, such as the device's priority, to determine which device
should be the primary.
FGCP runs only over the heartbeat links: FGCP communicates between FortiGate devices in the HA
cluster using the heartbeat links. These are dedicated links that are used to exchange status and control
information between the devices. FGCP does not run over other types of links, such as data links.

Explanation:
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.0.9/administration-guide/508779/fortigate-as-ssl-vpn-client
To establish an SSL VPN connection between two FortiGate devices, the following two settings are
required:
The server FortiGate requires a CA certificate to verify the client FortiGate certificate: The server
FortiGate will use a CA (Certificate Authority) certificate to verify the client FortiGate certificate, ensuring
that the client device is trusted and allowed to establish an SSL VPN connection.
The client FortiGate requires the SSL VPN tunnel interface type to connect SSL VPN: The client
FortiGate must have an SSL VPN tunnel interface type configured in order to establish an SSL VPN
connection. This interface type will be used to connect to the server FortiGate over the SSL VPN.

Explanation:
Strict Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) is a security feature that is used to detect and prevent IP spoofing
attacks on a network. It works by checking the routing information for incoming packets to ensure that
they are coming from the source address that is indicated in the packet's header. In strict RPF mode, the
firewall will check the best route back to the source of the incoming packet using the incoming interface.
If the packet's source address does not match the route back to the source, the packet is dropped. This
helps to prevent attackers from spoofing their IP address and attempting to access the network.

The SSL VPN idle-timeout setting determines how long an SSL VPN session can be inactive before it is
terminated. When an SSL VPN session becomes inactive (for example, if the user closes the VPN client
or disconnects from the network), the session timer begins to count down. If the timer reaches the idle-
timeout value before the user reconnects or sends any new traffic, the session will be terminated and the
associated resources (such as VPN tunnels and virtual interfaces) will be deleted.
