Free and Premium Fortinet FCP_FGT_AD-7.4 Dumps Questions Answers

To bring Phase 1 up, the following changes can be made:

A. On HQ-FortiGate, disable Diffie-Helman group 2: This is incorrect because Diffie-Hellman group 2 is already selected on both devices. Disabling it would not help.

B. On Remote-FortiGate, set port2 as Interface: This is incorrect as both sides should be consistent in their interface settings for the IPsec tunnel, and the interface is correctly set to port1 on both FortiGates in the IPsec configuration.

C. On both FortiGate devices, set Dead Peer Detection to On Demand: This is a valid option. Setting Dead Peer Detection (DPD) to "On Demand" helps maintain the IPsec connection by checking if the peer is still available, which can help in some cases where the connection fails due to timeouts.

D. On HQ-FortiGate, set IKE mode to Main (ID protection): This is also a valid option because the Remote-FortiGate is already set to Main mode (ID protection). Ensuring that both ends use the same mode is crucial for successful phase 1 negotiation.

Thus, the correct answers are:C. On both FortiGate devices, set Dead Peer Detection to On Demand.D. On HQ-FortiGate, set IKE mode to Main (ID protection).

The firewall policy list in the exhibit is arranged in the "Interface Pair View," where policies are grouped by their incoming (ingress) and outgoing (egress) interface pairs. Each section (LAN to WAN, WAN to LAN, etc.) groups policies based on these interface pairings. This view helps administrators quickly identify which policies apply to specific traffic flows between network interfaces. Options A and D are incorrect because the Implicit group typically does not include more than one deny policy, and there is no "sequence grouping view" in FortiGate. Option B is incorrect as the list is not displayed strictly by ID sequence.

In NetAPI polling mode, the FSSO (Fortinet Single Sign-On) collector agent uses the NetAPI (Windows API) to query the Domain Controllers (DCs) for user login sessions. This method allows the collector agent to retrieve information about active user sessions without directly scanning event logs.

To configure redundant IPsec VPN tunnels on FortiGate with failover capability, the following two key configuration changes are required:

A. Enable Dead Peer Detection (DPD): Dead Peer Detection is crucial for detecting if the remote peer is unreachable. By enabling DPD, FortiGate can quickly detect a dead tunnel, ensuring a faster failover to the secondary tunnel when the primary tunnel goes down.

C. Configure a lower distance on the static route for the primary tunnel and a higher distance on the static route for the secondary tunnel: The static route with the lower distance (higher priority) will be used when both tunnels are operational. If the primary tunnel fails, the higher distance (lower priority) route for the secondary tunnel will take over, ensuring traffic is routed correctly.

The other options are not suitable:

B. Enable Auto-negotiate and Autokey Keep Alive on the phase 2 configuration of both tunnels: This option is not directly related to the requirements of failover between two IPsec VPN tunnels.

D. Configure a higher distance on the static route for the primary tunnel and a lower distance on the static route for the secondary tunnel: This would prioritize the secondary tunnel over the primary tunnel, which is opposite to the desired configuration.

When the HA override setting is disabled, FortiGate uses the primary election process based on the following criteria:

Connected monitored ports: The unit with the most monitored ports up is preferred.

Priority: The unit with the highest priority is preferred.

System uptime: The unit with the longest uptime is preferred.

FortiGate serial number: Used as the final criterion to break any remaining ties.

NGFW (Next Generation Firewall) profile-based mode in FortiGate allows policies to use both flow-based and proxy-based inspection modes, providing flexibility depending on security and performance requirements. Additionally, profile-based mode supports applying applications and web filtering profiles directly in a firewall policy, allowing granular control over the traffic.

The On Demand mode for Dead Peer Detection (DPD) on FortiGate sends DPD probes only when there is outbound traffic and no response from the peer. This mode is used to detect if the peer is still available without continuously sending DPD probes, reducing unnecessary traffic.

An SSL VPN tunnel allows remote users to securely connect to the organization's network and transmit all traffic, including external application data and FTP resources, through an encrypted SSL/TLS connection. This ensures secure access to the network while supporting various protocols such as FTP and other application-specific traffic from the user's PC.

The current setting for the root FortiGate (Local-FortiGate) is fabric-object-unification local, which means that new address objects are not shared across the security fabric. Changing this setting to fabric-object-unification default will allow address objects to be synchronized and shared with downstream devices like the ISFW.

The "d-wan" zone in FortiGate SD-WAN configuration is the default SD-WAN zone created when SD-WAN is enabled. This zone contains all the interfaces assigned to SD-WAN and is essential for the functionality of the SD-WAN feature. The "d-wan" zone cannot be deleted because it is required for SD-WAN operations. Option A is incorrect because the underlay zone does not contain port1. Options B and D are incorrect because they incorrectly describe the configuration of zones.

FGCP elects the primary FortiGate device

FGCP is responsible for electing the primary (active) device in a FortiGate HA (High Availability) cluster, ensuring proper role assignment between the primary and secondary devices.

FGCP runs only over the heartbeat links

FGCP runs over the dedicated heartbeat links between FortiGate devices in the HA cluster, ensuring synchronization and communication between the devices for failover and redundancy purposes.

By default, SD-WAN members are skipped if they do not have a valid route to the destination

SD-WAN ensures that only members with valid routes to the destination are considered during routing decisions.

By default, SD-WAN rules are skipped if the best route to the destination is not an SD-WAN member

If the best route is not an SD-WAN member, SD-WAN rules are bypassed and standard routing takes over.

SD-WAN rules have precedence over any other type of routes

SD-WAN rules are evaluated first, meaning they take precedence over other routing mechanisms, such as static routes or policy-based routes.

To block access specifically to download.com while allowing other sites in the "Freeware and Software Downloads" category, you can create a separate firewall policy with a deny action specifically for the FQDN *.download.com. This approach allows blocking this particular site without affecting the other sites in the same category. Alternatively, configuring a static URL filter entry with the type set to Wildcard and action set to Block will also achieve the desired effect by directly blocking the specific URL without impacting other sites in the category.

The selected SSL inspection profile has certificate inspection enabled

If the SSL inspection profile is set to certificate inspection instead of full SSL inspection, FortiGate will only inspect the certificate of the HTTPS connection but will not decrypt and inspect the actual traffic content, leading to a failure in virus detection.

The website is exempted from SSL inspection

If the website hosting the EICAR test file is exempt from SSL inspection, FortiGate will not decrypt the traffic, meaning it cannot inspect the file content for viruses, resulting in the file being downloaded without detection.

FortiGate uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs from the DCs.

In agentless polling mode, FortiGate directly connects to the Domain Controllers (DCs) using the SMB protocol to read event logs and detect user login events.

FortiGate does not support workstation check.

In agentless polling mode, FortiGate does not perform workstation checks. It relies on polling the event logs from the Domain Controllers to identify user logins.

The serial console method allows management access to the FortiGate CLI without relying on network connectivity. This method involves directly connecting a computer to the FortiGate device using a serial cable (such as a DB-9 to RJ-45 cable or USB to RJ-45 cable) and using terminal emulation software to interact with the FortiGate CLI. This method is essential for situations where network-based access methods (such as SSH or Telnet) are not available or feasible.

In the security profile, there are application overrides for specific Facebook-related features, such as "Facebook" and "Facebook_Video.Play." However, the absence of specific signatures for actions like "Facebook_Like.Button" might be preventing reactions. You need to ensure that the necessary application signatures for all desired Facebook features, including reactions (like buttons), are included in the security policy. Therefore, retrieving or adding those signatures would resolve the issue.

When SD-WAN is enabled on FortiGate, the load balancing algorithm for Equal-Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) is configured using the load-balance-mode parameter under SD-WAN settings. However, if SD-WAN is disabled, the ECMP load balancing algorithm can be configured under config system settings. This flexibility allows FortiGate to control traffic routing behavior based on the network configuration and requirements.

For site B, the local quick mode selector should match the remote quick mode selector of site A, and vice versa. Since site A's remote quick mode selector is 192.168.2.0/24 (which is the subnet of site B), site B's local quick mode selector must be 192.168.1.0/24, which is the subnet of site A.

The SSL VPN is configured to listen on port 11443 on the FortiGate device, as shown in the SSL VPN settings in the exhibit. However, the user is attempting to connect to the server using port 1443, as displayed in the VPN connection status. The mismatch between the ports is causing the connection failure. To resolve this, the user should change the client configuration to use port 11443 to match the FortiGate SSL VPN configuration.

The Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) check is run on the first sent packet of any new session to ensure that the packet arrives on a legitimate interface. This check protects the network from IP spoofing attacks by verifying that a return route exists from the receiving interface back to the source IP address. If the route is invalid or not found, the packet is discarded. Options B and C are incorrect because RPF checks are performed on the first sent packet, not the reply packet.

FortiGate supports both pre-shared key and certificate signature methods for IKEv1 authentication. These methods provide flexibility depending on the security requirements of the network. Additionally, FortiGate supports Extended Authentication (XAuth), which requests a username and password from the remote peer, enhancing security by adding an extra layer of authentication. The XAuth method does not necessarily make the authentication faster; it is an additional security measure.

By selecting the "Include in every user group" option in the RADIUS configuration, FortiGate automatically includes this RADIUS server as an authentication source for all user groups. This means any user group configured on the FortiGate will authenticate using this RADIUS server, allowing users to authenticate against the server for any group they belong to.

FortiGate's application control can differentiate between parent and child applications and allows administrators to configure distinct actions for each. For example, it can identify Facebook (parent application) and specific functions within it (child applications) like Facebook video or chat, enabling more granular control over application traffic.

The IPS sensor configuration shows that:

The Microsoft.Windows.iSCSI.Target.DoS signature is set to "Monitor" with packet logging enabled, meaning that while traffic matching this signature will be allowed, it will also be logged for further analysis.

The generic Windows filter is set to "Block," meaning that all other attacks matching this filter will be blocked. However, the sensor will not reset connections or log packets unless specified.

Therefore, the sensor will allow attackers matching the specific DoS signature while blocking other attacks against Windows.
