FCP – FortiGate Administrator 7.6 — Question 13

What is the primary FortiGate election process when the HA override setting is enabled?

Answer options

• A. Connected monitored ports > Priority > HA uptime > FortiGate serial number
• B. Connected monitored ports > Priority > System uptime > FortiGate serial number
• C. Connected monitored ports > HA uptime > Priority > FortiGate serial number
• D. Connected monitored ports > System uptime > Priority > FortiGate serial number

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because when HA override is enabled, the FortiGate units prioritize connected monitored ports first, followed by priority, HA uptime, and finally the FortiGate serial number. The other options incorrectly list system uptime instead of HA uptime, which is crucial for determining the primary unit in this scenario.
