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.
Question 2
Which two features of IPsec IKEv1 authentication are supported by FortiGate? (Choose two.)
Options:
A.
Pre-shared key and certificate signature as authentication methods
B.
Extended authentication (XAuth)to request the remote peer to provide a username and password
C.
Extended authentication (XAuth) for faster authentication because fewer packets are exchanged
D.
No certificate is required on the remote peer when you set the certificate signature as the authentication method
Answer:
A, B
Explanation:
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.
