NSE 7 – Network Security Architect — Question 32

The logs in a FSSO collector agent (CA) are showing the following error: failed to connect to registry: PIKA1026 (192.168.12.232)
What can be the reason for this error?

Answer options

• A. The CA cannot resolve the name of the workstation.
• B. The FortiGate cannot resolve the name of the workstation.
• C. The remote registry service is not running in the workstation 192.168.12.232.
• D. The CA cannot reach the FortiGate with the IP address 192.168.12.232.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the error specifically indicates a failure to connect to the registry, which usually means that the registry service must be running on the target workstation. Options A and B are incorrect as they pertain to name resolution issues, which are not indicated by the error message. Option D is also incorrect since the IP address in question is for the workstation, not the FortiGate.
