Fortinet NSE8_812 Exam - Topic 1 Question 26 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's NSE8_812 exam

Question #: 26
Topic #: 1

Refer to the exhibit.

The exhibit shows two error messages from a FortiGate root Security Fabric device when you try to configure a new connection to a FortiClient EMS Server.

Referring to the exhibit, which two actions will fix these errors? (Choose two.)

AVerify that the CRL is accessible from the root FortiGate

BExport and import the FortiClient EMS server certificate to the root FortiGate.

CInstall a new known CA on the Win2K16-EMS server.

DAuthorize the root FortiGate on the FortiClient EMS

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, D

Ais correct because the error message 'The CRL is not accessible' indicates that the root FortiGate cannot access the CRL for the FortiClient EMS server. Verifying that the CRL is accessible will fix this error.

Dis correct because the error message 'The FortiClient EMS server is not authorized' indicates that the root FortiGate is not authorized to connect to the FortiClient EMS server. Authorizing the root FortiGate on the FortiClient EMS server will fix this error.

The other options are incorrect. Option B is incorrect because exporting and importing the FortiClient EMS server certificate to the root FortiGate will not fix the CRL error. Option C is incorrect because installing a new known CA on the Win2K16-EMS server will not fix the authorization error.

I thought the CRL was always accessible, weird!

I definitely remember that CRL accessibility is crucial, but I also think that the EMS server certificate needs to be handled properly. It feels like both options could be right.

I’m a bit confused about whether authorizing the root FortiGate is necessary. I feel like it might be related, but I can't recall the exact details.

I think exporting and importing the EMS server certificate could be a solution. I practiced a similar question where certificate issues were the main problem.

I remember something about checking the CRL accessibility, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the first step or if I should focus on the certificate import instead.

Authorizing the root FortiGate on the FortiClient EMS could be a good solution, but I want to make sure I understand the full context before selecting that option.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. I'm not sure if installing a new known CA on the Win2K16-EMS server is the right approach. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Hmm, the errors seem to be related to certificate issues. I think I'll start by trying to export and import the FortiClient EMS server certificate to the root FortiGate.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the error messages and the options to determine the best approach.

Okay, the first error mentions a CRL issue, so I'll definitely want to verify that the CRL is accessible from the root FortiGate. That seems like a good place to start.

I've got a hunch this is asking about the team's current focus or planning stage. The "outcomes" they're discussing makes me think it's related to their goals or initiatives, not a retrospective or testing phase.

This seems like a straightforward question about the benefits of a structured induction process. I'll carefully read through the options and think about which one best captures the key advantage.

I think option C sounds familiar from our studies, especially regarding service verification. But I'm not 100% confident.

I bet the folks at Fortinet wish they had named their products something more memorable, like 'Fortress-Gate' or 'Fortify-Client'. Would've saved us all a lot of headaches.
