NSE 7 – Public Cloud Security 6.4 — Question 29

A company deployed a FortiGate-VM with an on-demand license using Amazon Web Services (AWS) Market Place Cloud Formation template. After deployment, the administrator cannot remember the default admin password.
What is the default admin password for the FortiGate-VM instance?

Answer options

• A. The admin password cannot be recovered and the customer needs to deploy the FortiGate-VM again.
• B. <blank>
• C. admin
• D. The instance-ID value

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as the default admin password for the FortiGate-VM instance is the instance-ID value. Option A is incorrect because, while the password cannot be retrieved, it is not necessary to redeploy the VM. Option C is wrong since 'admin' is not the default password in this context, and option B is not applicable as it is blank.
