Fortinet NSE 7 - Secure Networking 7.6 Architect Questions 41–45 (page: 10)

Updated On: 30-Sep-2026

Refer to the exhibit, which shows partial outputs from two routing debug commands.

Which change must an administrator make on FortiGate to route web traffic from internal users to the internet, using ECMP?

  1. Set snat-route-change to enable.
  2. Set the priority of the static default route using port2 to 1.
  3. Set preserve-session-route to enable.
  4. Set the priority of the static default route using port1 to 10.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The 7.6 study guide explains the route selection order:
''Route Selection Process
Most specific route
Lowest distance
Lowest metric (dynamic routes)
Lowest priority (static routes)
ECMP (static, BGP, and OSPF routes)''**
It then states:
''If there are multiple routes with the same netmask, distance, metric, and priority, FortiGate shares the traffic among all of them. This is called equal-cost multi-path (ECMP).''
The FortiOS administration guide confirms the ECMP prerequisite:
''Routes must have the same destination and costs. In the case of static routes costs include distance and priority.''
In the exhibit, the kernel/FIB output shows the two default routes as:
gwy=100.64.1.254 dev=3 (port1) prio=0
gwy=100.64.2.254 dev=6 (port2) prio=10
So although both are default routes, their priorities are different. Since FortiGate uses the FIB/kernel for forwarding traffic, ECMP will not happen until the static-route priorities are the same. The study guide also notes that the FIB is the table used to perform standard routing
Therefore, to make the two default routes eligible for ECMP, the administrator must make the priorities equal. Since port2 is already 10, the needed change is to set the port1 default route priority to 10.
Why the other options are wrong:
A is wrong because snat-route-change affects how existing SNAT sessions react to routing changes, not whether static routes qualify for ECMP
B is wrong because changing port2 to priority 1 still would not match port1 at 0, so the routes still would not have equal cost for ECMP
C is wrong because preserve-session-route affects existing-session route persistence after routing changes, not ECMP qualification



MULTIPLE CHOICE
What are two reasons you might see iprope_in_check() check failed, drop when using the debug flow? (Choose two.)

  1. Packet was dropped because of policy route misconfiguration.
  2. Packet was dropped because of traffic shaping.
  3. Trusted host list misconfiguration.
  4. VIP or IP pool misconfiguration.

Answer(s): C,D

Explanation:

The Network Security Support Engineer 7.6 Study Guide explicitly explains this debug message:
''iprope_in_check() check failed, drop'' means the packet is destined to a FortiGate IP address and one of these conditions applies:
The service is not enabled
The service is using a different TCP port
The source IP address is not included in the trusted host list
The packet matches a local-in policy with action deny
That directly confirms C. Trusted host list misconfiguration.
Why D is the second valid choice:
The FortiOS administration guide explains that:
''IP pools and VIPs are considered local IP addresses if responding to ARP requests on these external IP addresses is enabled ... the FortiGate is considered a destination for those IP addresses ... once an IP pool or VIP has been configured ... the FortiGate considers it as a local address and will not forward traffic based on the routing table.''
Because iprope_in_check() is a local-in/local-destination type failure, a VIP or IP pool misconfiguration can cause traffic to be treated as destined for the FortiGate itself, which can then trigger this drop condition if the matching local service/local-in handling is not valid. So D is the closest supported second answer from the available choices.
Why the other options are wrong:
A is wrong because policy route problems are not the documented meaning of this specific debug message. The study guide instead ties iprope_in_check() check failed, drop to management/local-in conditions.
B is wrong because the study guide says traffic shaping drops appear as: ''Denied by quota check''



MULTIPLE CHOICE
Exhibit.

Refer to the exhibit, which shows the output of a session.
Which two statements are true? (Choose Iwo.)

  1. The TCP session has been successfully established.
  2. The session was initiated from an authenticated user.
  3. The session is being inspected using flow inspection.
  4. The session is being offloaded.

Answer(s): A,B

Explanation:

The exhibit showing the session output is not provided. Session information in FortiGate typically displays active connections, including source/destination IPs, protocols, ports, session duration, bytes transferred, and policy applied. Two true statements would depend on the specific data shown in the exhibit.



Refer to the exhibit, which shows the output of get router info ospf neighbor.

What can you conclude from the command output?

  1. The network type connecting the local Fortigate and OSPF neighbor 0.0.0.10 is point-to-point.
  2. All neighbors are in area 0.0.0.0.
  3. The local FortiGate is the BDR.
  4. The local FortiGate is not a DROther.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The exhibit with the output of get router info ospf neighbor is not visible. This command displays OSPF neighbor relationships, which typically includes neighbor IP addresses, state (Full, 2-Way, etc.), dead timer values, and interface information. Conclusions might relate to OSPF adjacency status, network connectivity, or neighbor stability.



MULTIPLE CHOICE
Exhibit.

Refer to the exhibit, which shows two entries that were generated in the FSSO collector agent logs.eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
What three conclusions can you draw from these log entries? {Choose three.)

  1. Remote registry is not running on the workstation.
  2. The user's status shows as 'not verified' in the collector agent.
  3. DNS resolution is unable to resolve the workstation name.
  4. The FortiGate firmware version is not compatible with that of the collector agent.
  5. A firewall is blocking traffic to port 139 and 445.

Answer(s): A,B,E

Explanation:

The exhibit showing FSSO collector agent log entries is not provided. FSSO log entries typically contain information about authentication events, user logon/logoff activities, IP-to-username mappings, or communication issues. Three conclusions would depend on analyzing the specific log entries shown.
