NSE 5 – FortiAnalyzer 6.4 — Question 8

An administrator has configured the following settings:
config system global
set log-checksum md5-auth
end
What is the significance of executing this command?

Answer options

• A. This command records the log file MD5 hash value.
• B. This command records passwords in log files and encrypts them.
• C. This command encrypts log transfer between FortiAnalyzer and other devices.
• D. This command records the log file MD5 hash value and authentication code.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the command specifies the use of MD5 for log checksum, which helps in recording both the MD5 hash value of the log file and the authentication code. Option A is incorrect as it does not mention the authentication code, while options B and C are irrelevant to the command's purpose.
