QuestionQ1

Policy and Objects in Installation

Refer to the exhibit.

Question Image

Based on the configuration shown, what can be concluded from the installation targets in the Install On column?

Choose two
  • A Policy 3 will be installed on all FortiGate devices and vdom belongs to the ADOM.
  • B Policy seq.# 3 will be skipped because no installation targets are specified.
  • C Policy seq.# 3 will be installed on all managed devices and VDOMs that are listed under Installation Targets.
  • D Policy seq.# 2 will not be installed on the Local-FortiGate root VDOM because there is no root VDOM in the Installation Target.
  • E Policy seq # 1 will be installed on the Remote-FortiGate root[NAT] and Student[NAT] VDOMs only.
Explanation

In FortiManager, a policy marked Installation Targets is installed to the installation targets configured for its policy package. A policy with individually listed targets is installed only to those specified targets. Thus, policy 3 applies to all managed devices and VDOMs listed as installation targets, while policy 1 applies only to the Remote-FortiGate root[NAT] and Student[NAT] VDOMs.

QuestionQ2

Device Management

What is the purpose of ADOM revisions?

  • A To save the FortiManager configuration in the System Checkpoints
  • B To revert individual policy packages and device-level settings for a managed FortiGate
  • C To save the current state of the whole ADOM
  • D To save the current state of all policy packages and objects for an ADOM
Explanation

ADOM revisions preserve a revision history of an ADOM’s policy packages and objects, allowing those policy-level configurations to be compared or restored. They do not serve as system checkpoints or as revisions of individual managed FortiGate device-level settings.

QuestionQ3

Policy and Objects in Installation

What does a Conflict policy package status signify?

  • A The policy configuration has never been imported after a device was registered on FortiManager.
  • B The policy package does not have FortiGate as the installation target.
  • C The policy package configuration has been changed on both FortiManager and the managed device independently.
  • D The policy package reports inconsistencies and conflicts during a Policy Consistency Check.
Explanation

A Conflict status indicates that the configuration was changed independently on both FortiManager and the managed device and is not automatically synchronized. Fortinet: Policy package installation targets

QuestionQ4

Policy Objects

An administrator has assigned a global policy package to a newly created ADOM named ADOM1.

What happens if the administrator attempts to create a new policy package in ADOM1?

  • A When a new policy package is created, the administrator must import the global policy package to ADOM1.
  • B When the new policy package is created, FortiManager automatically assigns the global policy package to the new policy package.
  • C When a new policy package is created, the administrator must assign the global policy package from the global ADOM.
  • D When creating a new policy package, the administrator can select the option to assign the global policy package to the new policy package.
Explanation

FortiManager can assign a global policy package to all policy packages in an ADOM. A policy package created in an ADOM that has that global package assigned is automatically associated with the global policy package, so the administrator does not need to import or manually reassign it.

QuestionQ5

Deployment and System Configuration

Refer to the exhibit.

Question Image

On FortiManager, an administrator creates a new system template named Training with two new DNS addresses. During the installation-preview stage, the administrator notices that central-management settings must be purged.

What is the primary reason for the central-management purge command?

  • A The Remote-FortiGate device does not have any DNS server-list configured in the central-management settings.
  • B The DNS addresses in the default system settings are the same as the Training system template.
  • C The ADOM is locked by another administrator.
  • D The Training system template has a default FortiGuard widget.
Explanation

The server-list under config system central-management contains additional FortiGuard update and rating servers, not DNS servers. A newly created system template includes default FortiGuard settings, so FortiManager purges an existing central-management server list to apply that default FortiGuard configuration.
