Refer to the exhibit.

You configure SD-WAN on a standalone FortiGate device. You want to create an SD-WAN rule that steers Facebook and Linkedin traffic through the less costly internet link. The FortiGate GUI page appears as shown in the exhibit.

What should you do to set Facebook and LinkedIn as destinations?

AInstall a license to allow applications as destinations of SD-WAN rules.

BIn the Internet service field, select Facebook and LinkedIn.

CEnable the applications as destinations of the SD-WAN rule feature visibility.

DYou cannot configure applications as destinations of an SD-WAN rule on a standalone FortiGate device.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

In an SD-WAN rule, you can steer application traffic by using Internet Service Database (ISDB) entries. Facebook and LinkedIn are predefined ISDB objects in FortiGate, so the correct way is to select them in the Internet service field under Destination. This ensures that all traffic to these applications is matched and routed through the chosen (less costly) link.

I remember something about needing a license for application steering, but I'm not sure if that's the only step needed.
