B is interesting, but I need to double-check that about Flow mode.

Wait, can FortiOS really not accept SIP if both are disabled? That sounds odd.

A is definitely wrong, you can restrict SIP without the helper.

I think D is correct, VoIP uses the SIP Session Helper by default.

I vaguely remember that by default, VoIP traffic uses the SIP Session Helper, but I’m not confident if that’s the case for all configurations.

I feel like I read that if both the SIP Session Helper and ALG are disabled, SIP traffic wouldn't be accepted at all. That seems like a key point.

I think I practiced a question similar to this where the ALG settings were crucial for SIP traffic. I just can't recall if Flow mode is necessary for rate tracking.

I remember something about the SIP Session Helper being important for handling SIP requests, but I'm not sure if it's the only way to restrict them.

This is a good question to test our knowledge of VoIP configuration on the FortiGate. I'm feeling confident I can work through this and select the right answer.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding when the SIP Session Helper and ALG are required for processing SIP traffic. I'll make sure to review those details in my notes.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording here. I'll need to make sure I understand the differences between the SIP Session Helper and the ALG before I can decide on the correct answer.
