Fortinet EMEA Advanced Support Exam Questions and Answers
Question 13
What does the below route indicate?
Options:
A.
The destination network can be reached via any gates
B.
It is a dummy route in the routing table
C.
The destination network is locally connected on that interface
D.
The device does not know the destination
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A route with a directly connected interface (no gateway) indicates the destination network is locally attached to that interface on the FortiGate. This is common for networks directly connected to the device’s interfaces. Option A is vague, B is incorrect as it’s not a dummy route, and D suggests an unknown route, which isn’t the case. Exact extract: "A directly connected route indicates that the destination network is locally attached to the interface specified in the routing table... No gateway is required for such routes as the FortiGate is directly connected to the network."
Question 14
Which Router in an OSPF Domain sends a Type-4 Summary LSA
Options:
A.
ABR
B.
ASBR
C.
All OSPF Routers
D.
Stub Routers only
Answer:
A
Explanation:
In OSPF, the Area Border Router (ABR) generates Type-4 Summary LSAs to advertise the location of an Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) to other areas. This LSA informs routers in different areas how to reach the ASBR for external routes. ASBR generates Type-5 LSAs for external routes, but ABR summarizes them with Type-4. Not all routers or stub routers do this. Exact extract: This article describes the basic steps to configure FortiGates in an OSPF scenario where the FortiGates will be ABR and ASBR OSPF routers across 3 areas. Router3 is the Autonomous System Border Router (ASBR). It routes all traffic to the ISP BGP router for internet access. It redistributes routes from BGP and ... Type 4 LSAs exist to let the area know the router-id of the ASBR, so the routers can look at the type 5 route, find advertising-router, and map ... An ASBR summary LSA is generated by an ABR and describes the location of an ASBR (Autonomous System Boundary Router) that connects to an external network. The FortiGate in the middle shall be a ABR between the two areas. But I don't want R2 in area 0.0.0.0 to have every /32 route for every VPN client. So I tried ...
Question 15
Which of the following is a network monitoring protocol?
Options:
A.
RDP
B.
Telnet
C.
SNMP
D.
SSH
Answer:
C
Explanation:
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is specifically designed for monitoring and managing network devices, allowing administrators to query device status, performance metrics, and configure alerts for issues. It operates by using agents on devices that report to a central manager. In contrast, RDP is for remote desktop access, Telnet for unsecure remote command-line access, and SSH for secure remote access. SNMP is the standard protocol for network monitoring in Fortinet products like FortiGate, FortiSwitch, etc. Exact extract: SNMP enables administrators to monitor how devices are performing and make changes to network devices so that data moves through the network more efficiently. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) enables you to monitor hardware on your network. The FortiSwitch SNMP implementation is read-only. Monitoring FortiAP with SNMP. You can enable SNMP directly on FortiAP by implementing a SNMPD daemon/subagent on the FortiAP side. The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows you to monitor hardware on your network. You can configure the hardware, such as the FortiProxy SNMP agent.
