NSE 7 – Zero Trust Access 7.2 — Question 15

What happens when FortiClient EMS is configured as an MDM connector on FortiNAC?

Answer options

• A. FortiNAC sends the host data to FortiClient EMS to update its host database.
• B. FortiClient EMS verifies with FortiNAC that the device is registered.
• C. FortiNAC polls FortiClient EMS periodically to update already registered hosts in FortiNAC.
• D. FortiNAC checks for device vulnerabilities and compliance with FortiClient.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because FortiNAC actively polls FortiClient EMS to ensure that the information on registered hosts is current. Option A is incorrect because it describes a data transfer that does not occur in this context. Option B is wrong since FortiClient EMS does not simply verify registration; it is not the main function in the MDM setup. Option D is also incorrect because the checking of vulnerabilities and compliance is not a direct function of FortiNAC in this scenario.
