NSE 4 – FortiGate 6.0 — Question 16

What is the limitation of using a URL list and application control on the same firewall policy, in NGFW policy-based mode?

Answer options

• A. It limits the scope of application control to the browser-based technology category only.
• B. It limits the scope of application control to scan application traffic based on application category only.
• C. It limits the scope of application control to scan application traffic using parent signatures only
• D. It limits the scope of application control to scan application traffic on DNS protocol only.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, indicates that when a URL list is used alongside application control, the application traffic is limited to being scanned based on application categories. Options A, C, and D misrepresent the implications of combining these features, as they incorrectly suggest limitations to specific technologies or protocols that do not apply in this context.
