NSE 5 – FortiAnalyzer 6.2 — Question 21

You need to upgrade your FortiAnalyzer firmware.
What happens to the logs being sent to FortiAnalyzer from FortiGate during the time FortiAnalyzer is temporarily unavailable?

Answer options

• A. FortiAnalyzer uses log fetching to retrieve the logs when back online
• B. FortiGate uses the miglogd process to cache the logs
• C. The logfiled process stores logs in offline mode
• D. Logs are dropped

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the miglogd process in FortiGate is responsible for caching logs when FortiAnalyzer is not available. Options A and C are incorrect as they refer to processes that do not apply in this scenario, and option D is incorrect because logs are not simply dropped during this time.
