NSE 5 – FortiManager 6.2 — Question 25

An administrator has enabled Service Access on FortiManager.
What is the purpose of Service Access on the FortiManager interface?

Answer options

• A. Allows FortiManager to download IPS packages
• B. Allows FortiManager to respond to request for FortiGuard services from FortiGate devices
• C. Allows FortiManager to run real-time debugs on the managed devices
• D. Allows FortiManager to automatically configure a default route

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, indicates that Service Access allows FortiManager to handle requests from FortiGate devices for FortiGuard services, which is essential for maintaining security updates. Option A is incorrect because it refers to downloading IPS packages, which is not the primary role of Service Access. Option C is wrong as real-time debugs are not a function of Service Access. Option D is incorrect since automatic configuration of a default route is unrelated to Service Access functionality.
