Fortinet NSE6_FAC-6.4 Fortinet NSE 6 - FortiAuthenticator 6.4 Exam Practice Test

Answer : A, C, D

FortiAuthenticator is a user and identity management solution that provides strong authentication, wireless 802.1X authentication, certificate management, RADIUS AAA (authentication, authorization, and accounting), and Fortinet Single Sign-On (FSSO). It also offers portal services for guest management, self-service password reset, and device registration. It is not a log server or an RSSO server.

Answer : B, C

HTTPS and SSH are the default management access protocols for administrative access for FortiAuthenticator. HTTPS allows administrators to access the web-based GUI of FortiAuthenticator using a web browser and a secure connection. SSH allows administrators to access the CLI of FortiAuthenticator using an SSH client and an encrypted connection. Both protocols require the administrator to enter a valid username and password to log in.

Answer : A

Online activation of the tokens through the FortiGuard network is the most secure way of delivering FortiToken data once the token has been seeded because it eliminates the risk of seed files being compromised during transit or storage. The other methods involve physical or manual delivery of seed files which can be intercepted, lost, or stolen.

Answer : B, D

FortiAuthenticator can act as a self-signed or local CA that can issue certificates to users, devices, or other CAs. It can also import other CA certificates and CRLs to trust them and validate their certificates. It can also create, sign, and revoke X.509 certificates for various purposes, such as VPN authentication, web server encryption, or wireless security. It cannot validate other CA CRLs using OCSP or merge local and remote CRLs using SCEP because these are protocols that require communication with external CAs.

Answer : C

REST API is a feature that allows FortiAuthenticator to integrate with an existing identity management system with the goal of authenticating and deauthenticating users into FSSO. REST API stands for Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interface, which is a method of exchanging data between different systems using HTTP requests and responses. FortiAuthenticator provides a REST API that can be used by external systems to perform various actions, such as creating, updating, deleting, or querying users and groups, or sending FSSO logon or logoff events.

Answer : B, D

Two statements about the RADIUS service on FortiAuthenticator are true:

RADIUS users can be migrated to LDAP users using the RADIUS learning mode feature. This feature allows FortiAuthenticator to learn user credentials from an existing RADIUS server and store them locally as LDAP users for future authentication requests.

FortiAuthenticator answers only to RADIUS clients that are registered with FortiAuthenticator. A RADIUS client is a device that sends RADIUS authentication or accounting requests to FortiAuthenticator. A RADIUS client must be added and configured on FortiAuthenticator before it can communicate with it.

Answer : D

Both sponsor and administrator account permissions are assigned using admin profiles. An admin profile is a set of permissions that defines what actions an administrator or a sponsor can perform on FortiAuthenticator. An admin profile can be assigned to an admin group or an individual admin user. A sponsor is a special type of admin user who can create and manage guest accounts on behalf of other users.
