FCSS_SDW_AR-7.6 Exam Dumps : FCSS - SD-WAN 7.6 Architect

Policy 3 points traffic To = HUB1-VPN1, which is an SD-WAN member interface. In SD-WAN you must reference the SD-WAN zone (the logical interface) in policies, not its member tunnels. Change the policy’s To interface to the zone HUB1, and the install will succeed.

With the Best Quality strategy, FortiGate first checks which links meet the SLA targets defined in the selected performance SLA (in this case, Custom-profile-1). Among those qualified links, FortiGate then uses the member configuration order to decide preference. If multiple links still qualify, it finally considers the member local cost to select the best path.

This configuration demonstrates a typical IPsec setup for SD-WAN overlays where the hub side requires a manually defined tunnel IP address, and the spoke can be flexibly configured, including interoperability with third-party IPsec devices. As described in the Fortinet SD-WAN Architect Guide: “For some overlays, the tunnel interface IP is configured statically on the hub side, which allows more control over overlay subnetting and facilitates the use of user-defined overlay IP addresses. This approach is also a requirement for compatibility with non-FortiGate endpoints, such as third-party IPsec devices that may not support dynamic address assignment via IKE or proprietary mechanisms.” This enables hybrid SD-WAN environments and advanced designs involving external partners or cloud services. Overlay IP flexibility is critical for route control and segmentation.
