You must configure an environment with dual-homed servers connected to a pair of FortiSwitch units using an MCLAG.

Multicast traffic is expected in this environment, and you should ensure unnecessary traffic is pruned from links that do not have a multicast listener.

In which two ways must you configure the igmps-f lood-traffic and igmps-flood-report settings? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

To ensure that unnecessary multicast traffic is pruned from links that do not have a multicast listener, you must disable IGMP flood traffic on the ICL trunks and enable IGMP flood reports on the ISL and FortiLink trunks.

Disabling IGMP flood traffic will prevent the FortiSwitch units from flooding multicast traffic to all ports on the ICL trunks. This will help to reduce unnecessary multicast traffic on the network.

Enabling IGMP flood reports will allow the FortiSwitch units to learn which ports are interested in receiving multicast traffic. This will help the FortiSwitch units to prune multicast traffic from links that do not have a multicast listener.

Just disable on ICL trunks, makes sense!

I thought we needed to enable on FortiLink trunks?

I feel like we might need to disable igmps-flood-report on the ISL to prevent flooding, but I can't remember the exact details.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to configure multicast settings, and I recall that enabling on the ISL might be necessary for proper traffic flow.

I'm a bit unsure about the ISL and FortiLink settings. Did we decide if those should be enabled or disabled for multicast?

I remember we discussed how disabling igmps-flood-traffic on ICL trunks could help reduce unnecessary multicast traffic.

Okay, let's see. I think I can handle this. First, I'll need to install the RHEL system roles package, then create the timesync.yml playbook and configure it as per the instructions.

Hmm, the question mentions issues with dynamic tunnels between branches, so I'll focus on checking the VPN profile settings first. Looks like option B might be the culprit.

I'm not sure about this one. The bottom-up approach seems like it could also be really time-consuming, with all the individual pieces needing to be built up. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I've got it! The answer is a subscription for each department. That way, they can all have their own payment options.
