NSE 6 – FortiSwitch 7.2 — Question 16

An administrator needs to deploy managed FortiSwitch devices in a remote location where multiple VLANs must be utilized to segment devices. No Layer 3 switch or router is present. The only WAN connectivity is the router provided by the ISP connected to the public internet.
Which two items will the administrator need to use? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A FortiSwitch interface connected to the ISP router configured with fortilink-13-mode enabled.
• B. FortiSwitch and FortiGate devices configured with VXLAN interfaces.
• C. FortiSwitch devices configured with NAT disabled.
• D. FortiSwitch devices that have the required internal hardware for this configuration.
• E. FortiSwitch and FortiGate devices configured with IPsec interfaces.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The correct answers are A and C because a FortiSwitch interface connected to the ISP router with fortilink-13-mode enabled is essential for managing the FortiSwitch in this setup, while having NAT disabled on the FortiSwitch devices allows for proper VLAN segmentation without interference from NAT. Options B, D, and E are not applicable as they involve configurations or hardware that are not necessary for this specific scenario.
