ATo prevent source and destination checks on network interfaces

BTo disable network security group (NSG) rules

CTo block incoming and outgoing network traffic

DTo enable the VM to act as a router

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Enabling the IP forwarding setting on FortiGate (or any NVA) in Azure allows the VM to route traffic that is not destined for itself, effectively enabling it to act as a router or firewall. This is essential for scenarios where FortiGate inspects or filters traffic between subnets or from on-premises to Azure.

I'm going with option D. Routing traffic is what FortiGate is all about, right? Anything else would be like a fish trying to climb a tree.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I guess option D makes the most sense, but I'd have to double-check the documentation to be certain.

Option D is clearly the correct answer. Enabling IP forwarding on the FortiGate in Azure allows the VM to act as a router, which is the primary purpose of this setting.
