NSE 5 – FortiAnalyzer 6.4 — Question 12

Which two statements are true regarding log fetching on FortiAnalyzer? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A FortiAnalyzer device can perform either the fetch server or client role, and it can perform two roles at the same time with the same FortiAnalyzer devices at the other end.
• B. Log fetching can be done only on two FortiAnalyzer devices that are running the same firmware version.
• C. Log fetching allows the administrator to fetch analytics logs from another FortiAnalyzer for redundancy.
• D. Log fetching allows the administrator to run queries and reports against historical data by retrieving archived logs from one FortiAnalyzer device and sending them to another FortiAnalyzer device.

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

The correct answers are B and D because log fetching does indeed require matching firmware versions between FortiAnalyzer devices, as differences can lead to compatibility issues. Additionally, D is correct as it describes the function of log fetching in terms of retrieving archived logs for analysis, while A and C are incorrect as they misrepresent the roles and purpose of log fetching.
