NSE 7 – SD-WAN 6.4 — Question 65

Which statement defines how a per-IP traffic shaper of 10 Mbps is applied to the entire network?

Answer options

• A. The 10 Mbps bandwidth is shared equally among the IP addresses.
• B. Each IP is guaranteed a minimum 10 Mbps of bandwidth.
• C. FortiGate allocates each IP address a maximum 10 Mbps of bandwidth.
• D. A single user uses the allocated bandwidth divided by total number of users.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a per-IP traffic shaper allocates a maximum limit of 10 Mbps for each individual IP address, ensuring that no single IP can exceed this threshold. Option A is incorrect because the bandwidth is not shared equally but rather capped per IP. Option B is false as it implies a minimum guarantee that does not apply here, and option D misrepresents how bandwidth allocation works in this context.
