NSE 7 – SD-WAN 6.4 — Question 44

What are two benefits of using FortiManager to organize and manage the network for a group of FortiGate devices? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. It simplifies the deployment and administration of SD-WAN on managed FortiGate devices.
• B. It improves SD-WAN performance on the managed FortiGate devices.
• C. It sends probe signals as health checks to the beacon servers on behalf of FortiGate.
• D. It acts as a policy compliance entity to review all managed FortiGate devices.
• E. It reduces WAN usage on FortiGate devices by acting as a local FortiGuard server.

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct options A and E highlight the capabilities of FortiManager in facilitating SD-WAN deployment and reducing WAN usage through local FortiGuard features. Options B and C do not correctly represent the benefits of FortiManager, as it does not directly enhance SD-WAN performance or send health check probes. Option D, while relevant to policy compliance, is not specifically a benefit of FortiManager regarding network management for FortiGate devices.
