Which two statements about metadata variables are true? (Choose two.)
Answer : C, D
Metadata variables in FortiGate are created to store metadata associated with different FortiGate features. These variables can be used in various configurations and scripts to dynamically replace the variable with its actual value during processing. A: You create metadata variables on FortiGate. They are used to store metadata for FortiGate features and can be called upon in different configurations. D: They can be used as variables in scripts. Metadata variables are utilized within the scripts to dynamically insert values as per the context when the script runs.

What can you conclude about the Spoke-1 and Spoke-2 configurations with respect to the information cond: Modified (recent auto-updated)?

ISFW is installed in the access layer NGFW is performing SNAT and web tittering DCFW is running IPS Which two statements are true regarding the Security Fabric logging? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, B
Refer to the exhibit, which contains a partial OSPF configuration.
What can you conclude from this output?
Answer : C
From the partial OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) configuration output:
B . The router sends grace LSAs before it restarts: This is implied by the command 'set restart-mode graceful-restart'. When OSPF is configured with graceful restart, the router sends grace LSAs (Link State Advertisements) to inform its neighbors that it is restarting, allowing for a seamless transition without recalculating routes.
Fortinet documentation on OSPF configuration clearly states that enabling graceful restart mode allows the router to maintain its adjacencies and routes during a brief restart period.
An administrator configured the following command on FortiGate
config router ospf
sec reszart-mode graceful-restart
Which two statements correctly describe the result of the above command? (Choose two.)
Answer : B, C
What are two functions of automation stitches? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, D
An administrator has configured two fortiGate devices for an HA cluster. While testing HA failover, the administrator notices that some of the switches in the network continue to send traffic to the former primary device What can the administrator do to fix this problem?
Answer : D
Virtual MAC Address and Failover
- The new primary broadcasts Gratuitous ARP packets to notify the network that each virtual MAC is now reachable through a different switch port.
- Some high-end switches might not clear their MAC table correctly after a failover - Solution: Force former primary to shut down all its interfaces for one second when the failover happens (excluding heartbeat and reserved management interfaces):
#Config system ha
set link-failed-signal enable
end
- This simulates a link failure that clears the related entries from MAC table of the switches.
