How does FortiSwitch perform actions on ingress and egress traffic using the access control list (ACL)?
In FortiSwitch, Access Control Lists (ACLs) are used to enforce security rules on both ingress and egress traffic:
ACL Evaluation Order (D):
Operational Function: FortiSwitch processes ACL entries from top to bottom, similar to how firewall rules are processed. The first match in the ACL determines the action taken on the packet, whether to allow or deny it, making the order of rules critical.
Configuration Advice: Careful planning of the order of ACL rules is necessary to ensure that more specific rules precede more general ones to avoid unintentional access or blocks.
Which interfaces on FortiSwitch send out FortiLink discovery frames by default in order to detect a FortiGate with an enabled FortiLink interface?
Fortinet FortiLink Protocol: The FortiLink protocol is Fortinet's proprietary mechanism for managing FortiSwitch units from a FortiGate firewall. It simplifies configuration and security policy enforcement across the connected network devices.
Auto-Discovery: FortiLink's auto-discovery feature means that by default, all ports on a FortiSwitch will actively send out discovery frames. This allows them to locate a FortiGate device that has a FortiLink interface enabled, streamlining the device management process.
No Configuration Needed: You don't have to manually configure individual ports for FortiLink discovery on FortiSwitch devices.
Reference
Exhibit.
Two routes are not installed in the forwarding information base (FIB) as shown in the exnibit. Which two statements about these two route entries are true? (Choose two.)
From the exhibit and the details given about the routes not installed in the FIB:
These two routes have a higher administrative distance value available to the destination networks (Option A): Administrative distance is a measure used by routers to select the best path when there are two or more different routes to the same destination from two different routing protocols. A higher administrative distance means that the route is considered less trustworthy, thus not selected for the FIB unless the more preferred routes fail.
These two routes will become primary, if the best routes are removed (Option B): In routing, if the currently installed routes (which are considered the best due to reasons like lower administrative distance) are removed or become unavailable, the next best routes based on administrative distance will be used. This behavior ensures redundancy and maintains network connectivity in diverse scenarios.
This approach is aligned with standard routing protocol behavior as documented in networking protocols and Fortinet's routing mechanisms which prioritize routes based on administrative distance and other metrics to maintain efficient and reliable network routing.
Which statement about 802.1X security profiles using MAC-based authentication mode is true?
Pag 232, FortiSwitch_7.2_Study_Guide-Online 'However, if you want to authenticate each device behind a port, and optionally, grant each device a different access level based on the credentials provided, then MAC-based is required.'
Refer to the exhibit.
What two conclusions can be made regarding DHCP snooping configuration? (Choose two.)
Based on the DHCP snooping configuration details provided in the exhibit:
B . FortiSwitch is configured to trust DHCP replies coming on FortiLink interface. The configuration segment shows 'trusted ports : port2 FlInK1 MLAG0,' indicating that the FortiSwitch is configured to trust DHCP replies coming from the specified ports, including the FortiLink interface labeled FlInK1. This setup is critical in environments where the FortiLink interface connects directly to a trusted device, such as a FortiGate appliance, ensuring that DHCP traffic on these ports is considered legitimate.
D . Global configuration for DHCP snooping is set to forward DHCP client requests on all ports in the VLAN. The 'DHCP Broadcast Mode' set to 'All' under the DHCP Global Configuration indicates that DHCP client requests are allowed to broadcast across all ports within the VLAN. This setting is essential for environments needing broad DHCP client servicing across multiple access ports without restriction, facilitating network connectivity and management.
