NSE 5 – FortiManager 5.4 — Question 6

Which of the following statements are true regarding an FGFM keepalive message? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. It includes the configuration checksum of FortiGate.
• B. The keepalive interval for keepalive messages is configured on FortiGate.
• C. It is sent only by FortiGate.
• D. It is used between FortiManager HA cluster members to make sure cluster members are in sync.

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

The correct answers are B and D. The keepalive interval is indeed configurable on FortiGate, which is stated in option B. Option D is also correct as the keepalive message is utilized by FortiManager HA cluster members to ensure they are synchronized. Options A and C are incorrect because the keepalive message does not include a configuration checksum and is not exclusively sent by FortiGate.
