NSE 4 – FortiGate 7.2 — Question 14

What are two benefits of flow-based inspection compared to proxy-based inspection? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. FortiGate uses fewer resources.
• B. FortiGate performs a more exhaustive inspection on traffic.
• C. FortiGate adds less latency to traffic.
• D. FortiGate allocates two sessions per connection.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The correct answers, A and C, highlight that flow-based inspection is more resource-efficient and contributes to lower latency compared to proxy-based inspection. Options B and D are incorrect as flow-based inspection does not necessarily provide a more exhaustive traffic analysis, nor does it allocate multiple sessions per connection.
