NSE 4 – FortiGate 7.2 — Question 17

Which statement correctly describes the use of reliable logging on FortiGate?

Answer options

• A. Reliable logging is enabled by default in all configuration scenarios.
• B. Reliable logging is required to encrypt the transmission of logs.
• C. Reliable logging can be configured only using the CLI.
• D. Reliable logging prevents the loss of logs when the local disk is full.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because reliable logging ensures that logs are encrypted during transmission, enhancing their security. Option A is incorrect as reliable logging is not enabled by default in all scenarios; it may need to be configured. Option C is wrong because reliable logging can also be set through the GUI, not just the CLI. Option D is incorrect since reliable logging does not prevent loss of logs due to a full disk; it primarily focuses on secure transmission.
