When configuring firewall policies which of the following is true regarding the policy ID?
Answer : D
Once a firewall policy is created, its policy ID is fixed and cannot be changed; this ID uniquely identifies the policy within the FortiGate configuration.
A FortiGate firewall policy is configured with active authentication, however, the user cannot authenticate when accessing a website.
Which protocol must FortiGate allow even though the user cannot authenticate?
Answer : D
DNS traffic must be allowed so the user can resolve domain names and reach the authentication server or web resources, even if authentication initially fails.
Refer to the exhibits.
The exhibits show a diagram of a FortiGate device connected to the network, and the firewall configuration.
An administrator created a Deny policy with default settings to deny Webserver access for Remote-User2.
The policy should work such that Remote-User1 must be able to access the Webserver while preventing Remote-User2 from accessing the Webserver.
Which additional configuration can the administrator add to a deny firewall policy, beyond the default behavior, to block Remote-User2 from accessing the Webserver?
Answer : C
To block Remote-User2's access to the Webserver, the deny policy must explicitly specify the Webserver as the destination address; otherwise, it denies traffic to all destinations, which is not the desired behavior.
When configuring a FortiGate in a multi-WAN setup, why would an administrator enable session preservation on an interface?
Answer : D
Session preservation keeps active sessions, such as SSL VPNs, tied to the original interface to prevent disruption when WAN routes change.
Refer to the exhibits.
The exhibits show the system performance output and default configuration of high memory usage thresholds on a FortiGate device.
Based on the system performance output, what are the two possible outcomes? (Choose two.)
Answer : C, D
Since memory usage is at 90%, exceeding the red threshold (88%), FortiGate enters a state where configuration changes are still allowed.
In this state, FortiGate drops new sessions to preserve resources and maintain stability.
A remote user reports slow SSL VPN performance and frequent disconnections. The user is located in an area with poor internet connectivity.
What setting should the administrator adjust to improve the user's experience?
Answer : D
Adjusting the DTLS timeout helps maintain SSL VPN stability and performance in environments with poor or high-latency internet connectivity by allowing more time for packet retransmissions before dropping the connection.
You have configured the FortiGate device for FSSO. A user is successful in log-in to windows, but their access to the internet is denied.
What should the administrator check first?
Answer : C
Checking the active users list verifies if FortiGate correctly associates the user with their IP address, ensuring proper policy enforcement for internet access.
