Answer: A,C

NO.2 A network administrator is configuring a new IPsec VPN tunnel on FortiGate. The remote peer
IP address is dynamic. In addition, the remote peer does not support a dynamic DNS update service.

Which statement is correct if a user is unable to receive a block replacement message when
downloading an infected file for the first time?
(A). The firewall policy performs the full content inspection on the file.
(B). The flow-based inspection is used, which resets the last packet to the user.
(C). The volume of traffic being inspected is too high for this model of FortiGate.
(D). The intrusion prevention security profile needs to be enabled when using flow-based inspection
mode.
Answer: B
* "ONLY" If the virus is detected at the "START" of the connection, the IPS engine sends the block
replacement message immediately
* When a virus is detected on a TCP session (FIRST TIME), but where "SOME PACKETS" have been
already forwarded to the receiver, FortiGate "resets the connection" and does not send the last piece
of the file. Although the receiver got most of the file content, the file has been truncated and
therefore, can't be opened. The IPS engine also caches the URL of the infected file, so that if a

IT Certification Guaranteed, The Easy Way!

"SECOND ATTEMPT" to transmit the file is made, the IPS engine will then send a block replacement
message to the client instead of scanning the file again.
In flow mode, the FortiGate drops the last packet killing the file. But because of that the block
replacement message cannot be displayed. If the file is attempted to download again the block
message will be shown.

NO.86 Which two statements explain antivirus scanning modes? (Choose two.)
(A). In proxy-based inspection mode, files bigger than the buffer size are scanned.
(B). In flow-based inspection mode, FortiGate buffers the file, but also simultaneously transmits it to
the client.
(C). In proxy-based inspection mode, antivirus scanning buffers the whole file for scanning, before
sending it to the client.
(D). In flow-based inspection mode, files bigger than the buffer size are scanned.
Answer: B,C
An antivirus profile in full scan mode buffers up to your specified file size limit. The default is 10 MB.
That is large enough for most files, except video files. If your FortiGate model has more RAM, you
may be able to increase this threshold. Without a limit, very large files could exhaust the scan
memory. So, this threshold balances risk and performance. Is this tradeoff unique to FortiGate, or to
a specific model? No. Regardless of vendor or model, you must make a choice. This is because of the
difference between scans in theory, that have no limits, and scans on real-world devices, that have
finite RAM. In order to detect 100% of malware regardless of file size, a firewall would need infinitely
large RAM--something that no device has in the real world. Most viruses are very small. This table
shows a typical tradeoff. You can see that with the default 10 MB threshold, only 0.01% of viruses
pass through.

two IPsec VPN tunnels and static routes.
* All traffic must be routed through the primary tunnel when both tunnels are up
* The secondary tunnel must be used only if the primary tunnel goes down
* In addition, FortiGate should be able to detect a dead tunnel to speed up tunnel failover Which two
key configuration changes are needed on FortiGate to meet the design requirements? (Choose two,)
(A). Configure a high distance on the static route for the primary tunnel, and a lower distance on the
static route for the secondary tunnel.
(B). Enable Dead Peer Detection.
(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.
(D). Enable Auto-negotiate and Autokey Keep Alive on the phase 2 configuration of both tunnels.
Answer: B,C
Study Guide - IPsec VPN - IPsec configuration - Phase 1 Network.
When Dead Peer Detection (DPD) is enabled, DPD probes are sent to detect a failed tunnel and bring
it down before its IPsec SAs expire. This failure detection mechanism is very useful when you have
redundant paths to the same destination, and you want to failover to a backup connection when the
primary connection fails to keep the connectivity between the sites up.
There are three DPD modes. On demand is the default mode.
Study Guide - IPsec VPN - Redundant VPNs.
Add one phase 1 configuration for each tunnel. DPD should be enabled on both ends.
Add at least one phase 2 definition for each phase 1.
Add one static route for each path. Use distance or priority to select primary routes over backup
routes (routes for the primary VPN must have a lower distance or lower priority than the backup).
Alternatively, use dynamic routing.
Configure FW policies for each IPsec interface.

NO.118 By default, FortiGate is configured to use HTTPS when performing live web filtering with
FortiGuard servers.
Which CLI command will cause FortiGate to use an unreliable protocol to communicate with
FortiGuard servers for live web filtering?
(A). set fortiguard-anycast disable
(B). set webfilter-force-off disable
(C). set webfilter-cache disable
(D). set protocol tcp
Answer: A
y default, "fortiguard-anycast" is enabled, and this setting only works with "set protocol https". To
use udp (ie. "set protocol udp"), "fortiguard-anycast" must be disabled.
Reference:
"By default, FortiGate is configured to enforce the use of HTTPS port 443 to perform live filtering with
FortiGuard or FortiManager. Other ports and protocols are available by disabling the FortiGuard
anycast setting on the CLI."

NO.122 Which two statements about FortiGate FSSO agentless polling mode are true? (Choose two.

50
IT Certification Guaranteed, The Easy Way!

)
(A). FortiGate uses the AD server as the collector agent.
(B). FortiGate uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs from the DCs.
(C). FortiGate does not support workstation check .
(D). FortiGate directs the collector agent to use a remote LDAP server.
Answer: B,C
You can deploy FSSO w/o installing an agent. FG polls the DCs directly, instead of receiving logon info
indirectly from a collector agent.
Because FG collects all of the data itself, agentless polling mode requires greater system resources,
and it doesn't scale as easily.
Agentless polling mode operates in a similar way to WinSecLog, but with only two event IDs: 4768
and 4769. Because there's no collector agent, FG uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs
from the DCs.
FG acts as a collector. It 's responsible for polling on top of its normal FSSO tasks but does not have all
the extra features, such as workstation checks, that are available with the external collector agent.

FortiGate's reliable logging feature prevents log loss when the local disk is full by ensuring logs are retained, rather than overwritten, until they can be safely transmitted or handled .

If web proxy traffic does not match any authentication rule, FortiGate uses the active and passive SSO schemes defined under the authentication settings, with the traffic being authenticated using SCHEME1 if specified .

When multiple features are enabled in a web filter profile, FortiGate follows the order of Static URL filter first, then FortiGuard category filter, and finally the advanced filters .

The valid actions available for FortiGuard category-based filters in a web filter profile when using proxy-based inspection mode are 'Warning' and 'Allow' .

The network administrator should configure the remote gateway on FortiGate as 'Dialup User' to accommodate the dynamic nature of the remote peer IP address .

FortiGate may fail to detect a virus in an EICAR test file downloaded via HTTPS if the website is exempted from SSL inspection or if the browser does not trust the FortiGate's self-signed CA certificate .

The CLI command 'diagnose wad session list' displays sessions both from the client to the proxy and from the proxy to the servers .

Enabling auto-negotiate on HQ-FortiGate does not solve the phase 2 configuration issue if the encryption algorithms don't match. Instead, setting the encryption to AES256 will match the required parameters .
