FCSS - Enterprise Firewall 7.6 Administrator Questions 31–35 (page: 8)

Updated On: 26-Oct-2026

Refer to the exhibit, which shows the packet capture output of a three-way handshake between FortiGate and FortiManager Cloud.

What two conclusions can you draw from the exhibit? (Choose two.)

  1. FortiGate will receive a certificate that supports multiple domains because FortiManager operates in a cloud computing environment.
  2. FortiGate is connecting to the same IP server and will receive an independent certificate for its connection between FortiGate and FortiManager Cloud.
  3. If the TLS handshake contains 17 cipher suites it means the TLS version must be 1.0 on this three-way handshake.
  4. The wildcard for the domain *.fortinet-ca2.support.fortinet.com must be supported by FortiManager Cloud.

Answer(s): A,D



Refer to the exhibit, which shows a LAN interface connected from FortiGate to two FortiSwitch devices.

What two conclusions can you draw from the corresponding LAN interface? (Choose two.)

  1. You must enable STP or RSTP on FortiGate and FortiSwitch to avoid layer 2 loopbacks.
  2. The LAN interface must use a 802.3ad type interface.
  3. This connection is using a FortiLInk to manage VLANs on FortiGate.
  4. FortiGate is using an SD-WAN-type interface to connect to a FortiSwitch device with MCLAG.

Answer(s): B,C

Explanation:

The diagram shows a FortiGate connected to two FortiSwitches, which suggests the use of FortiLink, Fortinet's protocol for managing switches directly from a FortiGate. Since multiple connections are being used, the LAN interface must be set to 802.3ad (LAG) mode to aggregate the links for redundancy and load balancing.
This setup allows FortiGate to handle VLAN assignments dynamically, as seen with VLAN 10 (192.168.15.1/24). FortiLink ensures seamless integration between FortiGate and FortiSwitches, making STP unnecessary because Fortinet's MCLAG prevents loops at Layer 2. SD-WAN, on the other hand, is used for WAN interfaces and does not apply to switch connectivity in this scenario.



Refer to the exhibit, which shows the HA status of an active-passive cluster.

An administrator wants FortiGate_B to handle the Core2 VDOM traffic.
Which modification must the administrator apply to achieve this?

  1. The administrator must disable override on FortiGate_
  2. The administrator must change the priority from 100 to 160 for FortiGate_
  3. The administrator must change the load balancing method on FortiGate_B.
  4. The administrator must change the priority from 128 to 200 for FortiGate_B.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The exhibit shows an active-passive HA (high availability) cluster with two virtual clusters, where FortiGate_A is the primary device for both Core1 and Core2. If the goal is to have FortiGate_B take over Core2 traffic, its priority must be higher than FortiGate_A for Virtual Cluster 2.
Currently, FortiGate_A has a priority of 150 for Core2, while FortiGate_B has 128. Increasing FortiGate_B’s priority to 200 ensures it becomes the primary for Virtual Cluster 2, taking over the Core2 VDOM traffic while keeping Core1 traffic on FortiGate_A.
Disabling override would prevent forced failovers but wouldn’t change the role distribution. Adjusting the load-balancing method is irrelevant in an active-passive setup, as it only applies to active-active configurations.



During the maintenance window, an administrator must sniff all the traffic going through a specific firewall policy, which is handled by NP6 interfaces. The output of the sniffer trace provides just a few packets.
Why is the output of sniffer trace limited?

  1. The traffic corresponding to the firewall policy is encrypted.
  2. auto-asic-off load is set to enable in the firewall policy,
  3. inspection-mode is set to proxy in the firewall policy.
  4. The option npudbg is not added in the diagnose sniff packet command.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

FortiGate devices with NP6 (Network Processor 6) acceleration offload traffic directly to hardware, bypassing the CPU for improved performance.
When auto-asic-offload is enabled in a firewall policy, most of the traffic does not reach the CPU, which means it won't be captured by the standard sniffer trace command.
Since NP6-accelerated traffic is handled entirely in hardware, only a small portion of initial packets (such as session setup packets or exceptions) might be seen in the sniffer output. To capture all packets, the administrator must disable hardware offloading using:
config firewall policy edit <policy_ID>
set auto-asic-offload disable end
Disabling ASIC offload forces traffic to be processed by the CPU, allowing the sniffer tool to capture all packets.



Refer to the exhibit, which shows a network diagram.

An administrator would like to modify the MED value advertised from FortiGate_1 to a BGP neighbor in the autonomous system 30.
What must the administrator configure on FortiGate_1 to implement this?

  1. route-map-out
  2. network-import-check
  3. prefix-list-out
  4. distribute-list-out

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) is a BGP attribute used to influence the preferred path for incoming traffic from an external autonomous system (AS). The diagram shows that FortiGate_1 advertises MED 200, while FortiGate_2 advertises MED 300, meaning the ISP will prefer the route through FortiGate_1 because a lower MED is preferred in BGP.
To modify the MED value on FortiGate_1 for routes advertised to AS 30, the administrator must configure a route-map-out. A route map can match specific routes and set the MED value before sending them to the BGP neighbor.
