NSE 7 – LAN Edge 7.0 — Question 6

Which two statements about FortiSwitch manager are true? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Per-device management is the default management mode on FortiManager.
• B. FortiManager obtains the FortiSwitch status information by querying the FortiGate REST API every three minutes.
• C. If the administrator makes any changes on FortiSwitch manager, they must also install those changes on FortiGate so that those changes are applied on the managed switches.
• D. Any switch discovered or authorized on FortiGate must be added manually on FortiSwitch manager.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because FortiManager does indeed retrieve status information from FortiSwitch using the FortiGate REST API every three minutes, and any changes made in FortiSwitch manager must also be applied to FortiGate to take effect. Option A is incorrect as per-device management is not the default, and option D is incorrect since switches can be automatically managed without manual addition.
