NSE 5 – FortiManager 7.0 — Question 26

An administrator enabled workspace mode and now wants to delete an address object that is currently referenced in a firewall policy.
What can the administrator expect to happen?

Answer options

• A. FortiManager will replace the deleted address object with the none address object in the referenced firewall policy.
• B. FortiManager will not allow the administrator to delete a referenced address object until the ADOM is locked.
• C. FortiManager will leave the address object empty.
• D. FortiManager will temporary disable the status of the referenced firewall policy.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because FortiManager has safeguards that prevent the deletion of referenced objects unless the ADOM is locked, ensuring that firewall policies remain intact. Answers A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the behavior of FortiManager when attempting to delete a referenced address object.
