nse8_812 Exam - Question 14

Refer to the exhibit.

You are deploying a FortiGate 6000F. The device should be directly connected to a switch. In the future, a new hardware module providing higher speed will be installed in the switch, and the connection to the FortiGate must be moved to this higher-speed port.

You must ensure that the initial FortiGate interface connected to the switch does not affect any other port when the new module is installed and the new port speed is defined.

How should the initial connection be made?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AB

To ensure that the initial FortiGate interface connected to the switch does not affect any other port when the new module is installed and the new port speed is defined, you should connect the switch on an interface that is not part of an interface group. Ports 25 to 28 on the FortiGate 6000F are 40/100GigE QSFP28 data network interfaces and can be set independently of each other, making them the best choice to avoid affecting other ports.

6000F has 6 interface groups: 1 to 4 - 5 to 8 - 9 to 12 - 13 to 16 - 17 to 20 - 21 to 24. This means the only way to be sure the initial connection does not affect the rest is 25-28. B

The port25 to port28 interfaces are not part of an interface group. You can set the speed of each of these interfaces independently of the other three. B is correct.
