FCP_FGT_AD-7.4 Exam Dumps - FCP - FortiGate 7.4 Administrator

The current setting for the root FortiGate (Local-FortiGate) is fabric-object-unification local, which means that new address objects are not shared across the security fabric. Changing this setting to fabric-object-unification default will allow address objects to be synchronized and shared with downstream devices like the ISFW.

The Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) check is run on the first sent packet of any new session to ensure that the packet arrives on a legitimate interface. This check protects the network from IP spoofing attacks by verifying that a return route exists from the receiving interface back to the source IP address. If the route is invalid or not found, the packet is discarded. Options B and C are incorrect because RPF checks are performed on the first sent packet, not the reply packet.

NTurbo enhances performance for flow-based inspection by offloading traffic to the content processor​.

The IPS sensor configuration shows that:

The Microsoft.Windows.iSCSI.Target.DoS signature is set to "Monitor" with packet logging enabled, meaning that while traffic matching this signature will be allowed, it will also be logged for further analysis.

The generic Windows filter is set to "Block," meaning that all other attacks matching this filter will be blocked. However, the sensor will not reset connections or log packets unless specified.

Therefore, the sensor will allow attackers matching the specific DoS signature while blocking other attacks against Windows.

The selected SSL inspection profile has certificate inspection enabled

If the SSL inspection profile is set to certificate inspection instead of full SSL inspection, FortiGate will only inspect the certificate of the HTTPS connection but will not decrypt and inspect the actual traffic content, leading to a failure in virus detection.

The website is exempted from SSL inspection

If the website hosting the EICAR test file is exempt from SSL inspection, FortiGate will not decrypt the traffic, meaning it cannot inspect the file content for viruses, resulting in the file being downloaded without detection.

The firewall policy list in the exhibit is arranged in the "Interface Pair View," where policies are grouped by their incoming (ingress) and outgoing (egress) interface pairs. Each section (LAN to WAN, WAN to LAN, etc.) groups policies based on these interface pairings. This view helps administrators quickly identify which policies apply to specific traffic flows between network interfaces. Options A and D are incorrect because the Implicit group typically does not include more than one deny policy, and there is no "sequence grouping view" in FortiGate. Option B is incorrect as the list is not displayed strictly by ID sequence.

The SSL VPN http-request-header-timeout timer is used to mitigate denial of service (DoS) attacks by limiting the amount of time the FortiGate waits for the client to send an HTTP request header after a connection is established. This helps reduce the attack surface by preventing potential attacks that exploit prolonged connection times without fully completing requests.

Automation stitches on FortiGate can have one or more triggers, which are conditions or events that activate the automation stitch. The trigger defines when the automation stitch should execute the defined actions. Actions within a stitch can be executed sequentially or in parallel, depending on the configuration.
