Fortinet NSE5_FWB_AD-8.0 Exam - Topic 1 Question 3 Discussion

Posted by Douglass on Jul 18, 2026 at 11:51 PM

You are setting up a FortiWeb policy to protect a customer login portal. Users connect to https://login.training.lab, and you want FortiWeb to forward those requests to a load-balanced pool of back-end servers.

Which three components must you configure to complete the server policy?

Suggested Answer: A

A FortiWeb server policy binds the listener, destination pool, and service handling required for traffic flow. The virtual server defines the public-facing listener where client traffic arrives. The server pool defines the real back-end servers or load-balanced pool where FortiWeb forwards accepted traffic. The service or port settings define whether FortiWeb handles HTTP, HTTPS, or another configured service. A WAF profile is important for security inspection, but the question asks for the three components needed to complete the forwarding policy. DNS resolver, URL rewrite, health checks, IPsec tunnels, and static routes may be useful in some deployments, but they are not the required core components of the server policy.

Wait, why would you need an IPsec tunnel for this? Seems off.

I definitely know we need a real server, but the IPsec tunnel and static route seem off for this specific setup.

I feel like the DNS resolver and URL rewrite rule might be important, but they don't seem to fit the main components we need for the server policy.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to configure a WAF profile, but I don't recall if it was necessary for this scenario.

I think we need to set up a virtual server and a server pool, but I'm not sure about the port settings.
