nse8_812 Exam - Question 54


A remote IT Team is in the process of deploying a FortiGate in their lab. The closed environment has been configured to support zero-touch provisioning from the FortiManager, on the same network, via DHCP options. After waiting 15 minutes, they are reporting that the FortiGate received an IP address, but the zero-touch process failed.

The exhibit below shows what the IT Team provided while troubleshooting this issue:

Which statement explains why the FortiGate did not install its configuration from the FortiManager?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

The issue lies in the DHCP server configuration, specifically with the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the FortiManager. The diagnosis output shows that the FortiManager IP address is correctly assigned to the FortiGate (fmg-ip=172.18.60.115), and there is no mention of an incorrect option type being used for the IP address. However, the fmg-domain-name is shown as an empty string, which indicates that the DHCP server did not provide the necessary FQDN for the FortiManager. This could prevent the zero-touch provisioning process from completing successfully.

Correct C C is correct because the DHCP server used the incorrect option type for the FortiManager IP address. The option type should be 43 instead of 15, as shown in the FortiManager Administration Guide under Zero-Touch Provisioning > Configuring DHCP options for ZTP.
