NSE 5 – FortiManager 7.2 — Question 10

An administrator enabled workspace mode and now wants to delete an address object that is currently referenced in a firewall policy.
Which two results can the administrator expect to happen? (Choose two.)

Answer options

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

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The correct answer is C and D because when an address object referenced in a policy is deleted, FortiManager substitutes it with the none address object to maintain policy integrity. Additionally, the system safeguards against deleting referenced objects by requiring the ADOM to be locked first, ensuring policy stability.
