NSE 8 – Network Security Expert (811) — Question 16

You want to manage a FortiGate with the FortiCloud service. The FortiGate shows up in your list of devices on the FortiCloud Web site, but all management functions are either missing or grayed out.
Which statement is correct in this scenario?

Answer options

• A. The management tunnel mode on the managed FortiGate must be changed to normal.
• B. The managed FortiGate is running a version of FortiOS that is either too new or too old for FortiCloud.
• C. The managed FortiGate requires that a FortiCloud management license be purchased and applied.
• D. You must manually configure system central-management on the FortiGate CLI and set the management type to fortiguard.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the FortiGate requires a specific FortiCloud management license to enable management functionalities. Options A, B, and D do not address the licensing requirement, which is the key issue preventing the management functions from being available.
