NSE 8 – Network Security Expert (812) — Question 11

You are designing a setup where the FortiGate device is connected to two upstream ISPs using BGP. Part of the requirement is that you must be able to refresh the route advertisements manually without disconnecting the BGP neighborships.
Which feature must you enable on the BGP neighbors to accomplish this goal?

Answer options

• A. Graceful-restart
• B. Deterministic-med
• C. Synchronization
• D. Soft-reconfiguration

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Soft-reconfiguration, which allows for the refreshing of BGP route advertisements without terminating the existing neighborships. The other options, such as Graceful-restart and Synchronization, do not provide the ability to manually refresh route advertisements, while Deterministic-med is unrelated to the ability to refresh BGP routes.
