QuestionQ2

Authentication

See the exhibit.

Question Image

Port2 on the FortiSwitch is configured with an 802.1X authentication security policy, but a device connected to port2 cannot access the network. The administrator collected the displayed diagnose output to investigate the problem.

Which two scenarios could explain why the device is unable to obtain network access?

Choose two
  • A The device is not configured for 802.1X authentication.
  • B The device has been quarantined for 3600 seconds.
  • C The device does not support 802.1X authentication.
  • D The device has been assigned the guest VLAN.
Explanation

An 802.1X-controlled port grants normal network access only after the connected supplicant completes EAP authentication. With zero EAP exchanges recorded and MAC Authentication Bypass disabled, a device that either lacks an enabled 802.1X configuration or does not support 802.1X cannot authenticate and remains unauthorized. The reAuth=3600 setting is a reauthentication timer, and no guest VLAN is configured or assigned.
