Fortinet NSE6_FSM_AN-7.4 Exam - Topic 5 Question 3 Discussion

Posted by Mila on Jul 20, 2026 at 03:37 AM

Refer to the exhibit.

If you group the events by Reporting Device, Reporting IP, and Application Category, how many results will FortiSIEM display?

Suggested Answer: B

FortiSIEM grouping works by combining events that have the same values for all selected Group By attributes. The Study Guide's rule and subpattern example states that when multiple events have the same Group By values, ''they are grouped together in one row, and the count column tracks the number of events for each of those rows.'' In the exhibit, the selected grouping fields are Reporting Device, Reporting IP, and Application Category. The table contains six raw rows, but two rows share the same grouped combination: FW01 / 10.1.1.1 / DB. Those two rows are collapsed into one grouped result. The other combinations are unique: FW02 / 10.1.1.2 / WebApp, FW01 / 10.1.1.1 / SSH, FW03 / 10.1.1.3 / DB, and FW04 / 10.1.1.4 / SSH. That creates five grouped rows in total. FortiSIEM does not display six because grouping removes duplicate combinations, and it does not display four because only one duplicate combination exists.

I recall that grouping can sometimes reduce the number of results, but I can't remember if it applies here. I’m leaning towards four or six.

I’m a bit confused about how the grouping affects the total count. I thought it might just be one result since they’re all related.

This question feels similar to one we practiced where we had to count unique entries. I want to say it might be five, but I could be mixing it up.

I think I remember that grouping by those categories usually leads to a higher number of results, but I'm not sure how many exactly.
