Haha, this question is a real brain-teaser! I'm going to go with C. The administrator should have to manually restore the static routes if port2 comes back up. That's just good old-fashioned troubleshooting, you know?

In that case, host 8.8.8.8 should be reachable through both port1 and port2 according to the options provided.

But what if the administrator manually restores the static routes for port2 when it becomes alive?

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Option D seems like a reasonable answer too, since the exhibits show that the host 8.8.8.8 is reachable through both port1 and port2.

I think the correct answer is B. If port2 is detected as dead, FortiGate should remove all static routes for that port. It's a logical response to ensure the network continues to function properly.
