If SD-WAN is disabled, you configure the load balancing algorithm in config system settings. If SD-WAN is enabled, you control the load balancing algorithm with the parameter load-balance-mode.

You have created a web filter profile named restrict_media-profile with a daily category usage quota. When you are adding the profile to the firewall policy, the restrict_media-profile is not listed in the available web profile drop down. What could be the reason?. The firewall policy is in no-inspection mode instead of deep-inspection. The inspection mode in the firewall policy is not matching with web filter profile feature set. The web filter profile is already referenced in another firewall policy. The naming convention used in the web filter profile is restricting it in the firewall policy.

As an administrator you have created an IPS profile, but it is not performing as expected. While testing you got the output as shown in the exhibit. What could be the possible reason of the diagnose output shown in the exhibit?. There is a no firewall policy configured with an IPS security profile. FortiGate entered into IPS fail open state. Administrator entered the command diagnose test application ipsmonitor 5. Administrator entered the command diagnose test application ipsmonitor 99.

The predefined deep-inspection and custom-deep-inspection profiles exclude some web categories from SSL inspection, as shown in the exhibit. For which two reasons are these web categories exempted? (Choose two.). The FortiGate temporary certificate denies the browser’s access to websites that use HTTP Strict Transport Security.

A new administrator is configuring FSSO authentication on FortiGate using DC Agent Mode. Which step is NOT part of the expected process?. The DC agent sends login event data directly to FortiGate. The user logs into the windows domain. The collector agent forwards login event data to FortiGate. FortiGate determines user identity based on the IP address in the FSSO list.

A network administrator is reviewing firewall policies in both Interface Pair View and By Sequence View. The policies appear in a different order in each view. Why is the policy order different in these two views?. Policies in Interface Pair View are prioritized by security levels, while By Sequence View strictly follows the administrator’s manual ordering. By Sequence View groups policies based on rule priority, while Interface Pair View always follows the order of traffic logs. The firewall dynamically reorders policies in Interface Pair View based on recent traffic patterns, but By Sequence View remains static. Interface Pair View sorts policies based on matching interfaces, while By Sequence View shows the actual processing order of rules.
