Fortinet NSE7_ZTA-7.2 Fortinet NSE 7 - Zero Trust Access 7.2 Exam Practice Test

Answer : B

FortiNAC uses a variety of methods to identify devices on the network, such as Vendor OUI, DHCP fingerprinting, and device profiling12.One of the supported communication methods that FortiNAC uses for initial device identification during discovery is SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)3.SNMP is a protocol that allows network devices to exchange information and monitor their status4.FortiNAC can use SNMP to read information from switches and routers, such as MAC addresses, IP addresses, VLANs, and port status3.SNMP can also be used to configure network devices and enforce policies4.Reference:1: Identification | FortiNAC 9.4.0 - Fortinet Documentation2: Device profiling process | FortiNAC 8.3.0 | Fortinet Document Library3: Using FortiNAC to identify medical devices - James Pratt4: How does FortiNAC identify a new device on the network?

Answer : C

The exhibit shows the EMS Settings where various configurations related to network security are displayed. Option C is correct because, in the settings, it is indicated that HTTPS port is used (which operates over TCP) and SSL certificates are involved in securing the connection, implying the use of TLS for encryption and secure communication between FortiClient and FortiClient EMS.

Option A is incorrect because the domain that FortiClient is connecting to does not have to match the domain to which the certificate is issued. The certificate is issued by the ZTNA CA, which is a separate entity from the domain. The certificate only contains the device ID, ZTNA tags, and other information that are used to identify and authenticate the device.

Option B is incorrect because if the FortiClient EMS server certificate is invalid, FortiClient does not connect silently. Instead, it performs the Invalid Certificate Action that is configured in the settings. The Invalid Certificate Action can be set to block, warn, or allow the connection.

Option D is incorrect because default_ZTNARoot CA does not sign the FortiClient certificate for the SSL connectivity to FortiClient EMS. The FortiClient certificate is signed by the ZTNA CA, which is a different certificate authority from default_ZTNARoot CA. default_ZTNARoot CA is the EMS CA Certificate that is used to verify the identity of the EMS server.

Answer : B, C

Based on the exhibit, the true statements about the hr endpoint are:

B) The endpoint is marked as a rogue device: The 'w' symbol typically indicates a warning or an at-risk status, which can be associated with an endpoint being marked as rogue due to failing to meet the security compliance requirements or other reasons.

C) The endpoint has failed the compliance scan: The 'w' symbol can also signify that the endpoint has failed a compliance scan, which is a common reason for an endpoint to be marked as at risk.

Answer : A

In a ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) deployment, FortiClient EMS:

A) Uses endpoint information to grant or deny access to the network: FortiClient EMS plays a critical role in ZTNA by using information about the endpoint, such as its security posture and compliance status, to determine whether to grant or deny network access.

The other options do not accurately represent the role of FortiClient EMS in ZTNA:

B) Provides network and user identity authentication services: While it contributes to the overall ZTNA strategy, FortiClient EMS itself does not directly provide authentication services.

C) Generates and installs client certificates on managed endpoints: Certificate management is typically handled by other components in the ZTNA framework.

D) Acts as ZTNA access proxy for managed endpoints: FortiClient EMS does not function as an access proxy; its role is more aligned with endpoint management and policy enforcement.

Answer : D

FortiNAC uses SNMP or CLI to communicate with network devices such as routers and switches. To add a Layer 3 router to its inventory, FortiNAC needs to have SNMP or CLI access to the router to perform remote tasks such as polling, VLAN assignment, and port shutdown. Without SNMP or CLI access, FortiNAC cannot manage the router or its ports.Therefore, SNMP or CLI access is a prerequisite for adding a Layer 3 router to FortiNAC's inventory.Reference:= https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortinac/9.4.0/administration-guide/105927/inventory

Answer : A

For FortiNAC to perform automated incident response based on FortiGate traffic, the required configuration is:

A) FortiNAC should be added as a participant in the Security Fabric: By integrating FortiNAC into the Fortinet Security Fabric, it can respond to incidents based on traffic analysis performed by FortiGate. This allows for coordinated and automated responses to security events.

The other options are not specifically required for automated incident response in this context:

B) FortiNAC requires read-write SNMP access to FortiGate: While SNMP access is important for certain functions, it is not the key requirement for this

specific use case.

C) FortiNAC should be configured as a syslog server on FortiGate: Configuring FortiNAC as a syslog server is useful for log collection but not specifically for automated incident response based on traffic.

D) FortiNAC requires HTTPS access to FortiGate for API calls: HTTPS access for API calls is important for integration, but it is not the primary requirement for automated incident response based on FortiGate traffic analysis.

Answer : D

Based on the exhibit showing the status of the hr endpoint, the true statement about this endpoint is:

D) The endpoint has been marked at risk: The 'w' next to the host status for the 'hr' endpoint typically denotes a warning, indicating that the system has marked it as at risk due to some security policy violations or other concerns that need to be addressed.

The other options do not align with

the provided symbol 'w' in the context of FortiNAC:

A) The endpoint is a rogue device: If the endpoint were rogue, we might expect a different symbol, often indicating a critical status or alarm.

B) The endpoint is disabled: A disabled status is typically indicated by a different icon or status indicator.

C) The endpoint is unauthenticated: An unauthenticated status would also be represented by a different symbol or status indication, not a 'w'.
