Fortinet NSE8_812 Exam - Topic 2 Question 41 Discussion

Posted by Frankie on Jan 27, 2025 at 06:27 PM

Refer to the exhibit.

You need to create a base SD-WAN configuration that includes SD-WAN rules and Performance SLAs for spoke sites with various connectivity types. It needs to be done in a way that can be easily applied to new sites with a minimum amount of change. How should you create the SD-WAN zones?

Suggested Answer: A

A is correct because using network-overlay id allows you to configure multiple ADVPN tunnels on a single interface with a single IP address on the DC FortiGate. This is explained in the FortiGate Administration Guide under ADVPN > Configuring ADVPN > Configuring ADVPN on the hub.

B could work too, but it might limit some configurations.

Definitely A, overlay interfaces are key for performance.

Surprised that C is even an option, that doesn't make sense!

I disagree, B might be simpler for new sites.

Option A seems like the best choice for flexibility.

I feel like option D could be a valid approach too, especially if we want to keep things flexible for future site additions.

I recall that having no members configured could lead to issues, but I can't remember if that was specifically for SD-WAN zones.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to decide on interface assignments. I feel like option A might be the right choice, but I’m a bit uncertain.

I remember we discussed the importance of having members assigned to the SD-WAN zones, but I'm not sure if we need to specify overlay interfaces.

Hmm, I'm not sure if leaving the interfaces unspecified is the best approach. Wouldn't it be better to assign the overlay interfaces to the zones so that the configuration is more complete and easier to deploy?

Based on the question, I'd say the best approach is to create the zones with members but without assigning specific interfaces. That way we can easily apply the zones to new sites without having to change a lot of the configuration.
GL

I'm a little confused about the difference between the options. Do we need to assign overlay interfaces to the zones, or can we leave them unspecified?

This looks like a pretty straightforward SD-WAN configuration question. I think the key is to create the zones in a way that can be easily applied to new sites without a lot of changes.

You know, if they really want to test our SD-WAN skills, they should throw in a few questions about troubleshooting the WiFi at the remote office. That's where the real challenges lie!

Yeah, setting up SD-WAN zones with overlay interfaces seems like the best approach for easy application to new sites.

Option B it is! Keep it simple, stupid. That's my motto. Although, I do wonder if the exam writers are trying to trick us with these 'easy' questions. Better double-check my work just in case.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards Option A. Assigning the overlay interfaces upfront might be a bit more work, but it could help ensure a consistent configuration across all sites. Either way, I'm glad I don't have to deal with this on a daily basis. My job is to just take the test and pass!

User 2: Yeah, I agree. It might take a bit more work upfront, but it will definitely help maintain consistency.

User 1: I think Option A is the way to go. It will make it easier to apply the configuration to new sites.
SA

I agree with Lera. Option B is the best choice here. It's all about making the configuration scalable and easy to maintain. Who wants to deal with a bunch of manual changes every time a new site is added?
LE
Lera 2 years ago
Option B seems the way to go. Creating zones without interface assignments allows for more flexibility when applying the configuration to new sites. The key is to keep things simple and modular.
