NSE 4 – FortiGate 6.0 — Question 93

An administrator wants to configure a FortiGate as a DNS server. FotiGate must use a DNS database first, and then relay all irresolvable queries to an external
DNS server. Which of the following DNS methods must you use?

Answer options

• A. Recursive
• B. Non-recursive
• C. Forward to primary and secondary DNS
• D. Forward to system DNS

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Recursive, because it allows the FortiGate to first search its local DNS database and then relay unresolved queries to an external server. Options B (Non-recursive) would not allow the FortiGate to resolve queries by querying external servers, while C (Forward to primary and secondary DNS) and D (Forward to system DNS) do not indicate checking the local database first.
