FCP – FortiWAN and Cloud Security Administrator 7.4 — Question 3

A customer has implemented GWLB between the partner and application VPCs. FortiGate appliances are deployed in the partner VPC with multiple AZs to inspect traffic transparently.
Which two things will happen to application traffic based on the GWLB deployment? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Inbound and outbound traffic will go to multiple devices, which will perform load balancing.
• B. Inbound and outbound traffic will go to the same device, which will perform stateful processing.
• C. The content of the original traffic exchanged between the GWLB and FortiGate will be preserved.
• D. The original traffic exchanged between the GWLB and FortiGate will be hashed for data integrity.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answer, B, indicates that both inbound and outbound traffic is processed by a single device, allowing for stateful session management. Answer C is also correct because GWLB maintains the original content of the traffic when it communicates with FortiGate. Options A and D are incorrect as they misrepresent the traffic handling and data integrity processes involved with GWLB and FortiGate.
