Fortinet NSE8_812 Dumps

C. The antivirus database queries FortiGuard with the hash of a scanned file. This is how the FortiGuard VOS service works. The FortiGate queries FortiGuardwith the hash of a scanned file, and FortiGuard returns a list of known malware signatures that match the hash.

E. The hash signatures are obtained from the FortiGuard Global Threat Intelligence database. This is where the FortiGuard VOS service gets its hash signatures from. The FortiGuard Global Threat Intelligence database is updated regularly with new malware signatures.

The diagnose command shown in the output is used to display information about NP6 packet descriptor queues. The output shows that there are 16 NP6 units in total, and each unit has four XAUI ports (XA0-XA3). The output also shows that there are some non-zero values in the columns PDQ ACCU (packet descriptor queue accumulated counter) and PDQ DROP (packet descriptor queue drop counter). These values indicate that there are some packet descriptor queues that have reached their maximum capacity and have dropped some packets at the XAUI ports. This could be caused by congestion or misconfiguration of the XAUI ports or the ISF (Internal Switch Fabric). References:

The output is showing a packet descriptor queue accumulated counter, which is a measure of the number of packets that have been dropped by the NP6 due to congestion. The counter will increase if there are more packets than the NP6 can handle, which can happen if the bandwidth between the ISF and the NP is not sufficient or if the HPE shaper is enabled.

The output also shows that there are packet drops at the XAUI, which is the interface between the NP6 and the FortiGate's backplane. This means that the NP6 is not able to keep up with the traffic and is dropping packets.

The other statements are not true. Host-shortcut mode is not enabled, and enabling bandwidth control between the ISF and the NP will not change the output. HPE shaper is a feature that can be enabled to improve performance, but it will not change the output of the diagnose command.

Graceful-restart is a feature that allows BGP neighbors to maintain their routing information during a BGP restart or failover event, without disrupting traffic forwarding or causing route flaps. Graceful-restart works by allowing a BGP speaker (the restarting router) to notify its neighbors (the helper routers) that it is about to restart or failover, and request them to preserve their routing information and forwarding state for a certain period of time (the restart time). The helper routers then mark the routes learned from the restarting router as stale, but keep them in their routing table and continue forwarding traffic based on them until they receive an end-of-RIB marker from the restarting router or until the restart time expires. This way, graceful-restart can minimize traffic disruption and routing instability during a BGP restart or failover event. References:

The OSPF configuration shown in the exhibit is using the default priority value of 1 for the interface port1. This means that FGT_3 will participate in the DR/BDR election process with the other OSPF routers on the same LAN segment. However, this is not desirable because FGT_3 is a new device that needs to be added to the OSPF network without affecting the existing DR/BDR election. Therefore, to make sure FGT_3 will establish OSPF neighbors without affecting the DR/BDR election, the priority value of the interface port1 should be changed to 0. This will prevent FGT_3 from becoming a DR or BDR and allow it to form OSPF adjacencies with the current DR and BDR. Option B shows the correct configuration that changes the priority value to 0. Option A is incorrect because it does not change the priority value. Option C is incorrect because it changes the network type to point-to-point, which is not suitable for a LAN segment with multiple OSPF routers. Option D is incorrect because it changes the area ID to 0.0.0.1, which does not match the area ID of the other OSPF routers on the same LAN segment. References:

FortiGate NAC LAN Segments are a feature that allows users to assign different VLANs to different LAN segments without changing the IP address of hosts or bouncing the switch port. This provides physical isolation while maintaining firewall sessions and avoiding DHCP issues. One benefit of using FortiGate NAC LAN Segments is that it allows for assignment of dynamic address objects matching NAC policy. This means that users can create firewall policies based on dynamic address objects that match the NAC policy criteria, such as device type, OS type, MAC address, etc. This simplifies firewall policy management and enhances security by applying different security profiles to different types of devices.References:

The FEC configuration in the exhibit specifies that if the packet loss is greater than 10%, then the FEC mapping will be 8 base packets and 2 redundant packets. The download bandwidth of 500 Mbps is not greater than 950 Mbps, so the FEC mapping is not overridden by the bandwidth setting. Therefore, the FEC behavior will be 2 redundant packets for every 8 base packets.

Here is the explanation of the FEC mappings in the exhibit:

Packet loss greater than 10%: 8 base packets and 2 redundant packets.

Upload bandwidth greater than 950 Mbps: 9 base packets and 3 redundant packets.

The mappings are matched from top to bottom, so the first mapping that matches the conditions will be used. In this case, the first mapping matches because the packet loss is greater than 10%. Therefore, the FEC behavior will be 2 redundant packets for every 8 base packets.

To enable application detection on plain-text traffic that has been decrypted by FortiADC, the administrator must perform two configuration tasks on CL-1:

Enable SSL offloading in the firewall policy and select the SSL-Offload protocol options profile.

Enable application control in the firewall policy and select the SSL-Offload-App-Detect application list. References:

The exhibited playbook requires intervention, which means that the playbook has reached a point where it needs a human operator to take action. The next step should be to go to the Incident Response tasks dashboard and run the pending actions. This will allow you to see the pending actions that need to be taken and to take those actions.

The other options are not correct. Option B will only show you the notification icon, but it will not allow you to run the pending input action. Option C will run the Mark Drive by Download playbook action, but this is not the correct action to take in this case. Option D is not a valid option.

Here are some additional details about pending actions in FortiSOAR:

Pending actions are actions that need to be taken by a human operator.

Pending actions are displayed in the Incident Response tasks dashboard.

Pending actions can be run by clicking on the action in the dashboard.

The FortiGate VM is a virtual firewall appliance that can run on various hypervisors, such as ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM, etc. The adapter type for NICs on a FortiGate VM determines the performance and compatibility of the network interface cards with the hypervisor and the physical network. There are different adapter types available for NICs on a FortiGate VM, such as E1000, VMXNET3, SR-IOV, etc. If performance is the main concern and cost is not a factor, one option is to use native ESXi networking with VMXNET3 adapter type for NICs on a FortiGate VM that will run on an ESXi hypervisor. VMXNET3 is a paravirtualized network interface card that is optimized for performance in virtual machines and supports features such as multiqueue support, Receive Side Scaling (RSS), Large Receive Offload (LRO), IPv6 offloads, and MSI/MSI-X interrupt delivery. Native ESXi networking means that the FortiGate VM uses the standard virtual switch (vSwitch) or distributed virtual switch (dvSwitch) provided by the ESXi hypervisor to connect to the physical network. This option can provide high performance and compatibility for NICs on a FortiGate VM without requiring additional hardware or software components. References:

C. The IP address of the FortiSwitch is 10.12.240.2:This statement is correct based on the exhibit and your clarification. The exhibit lists the "IP Address" as 10.12.240.2 across multiple entries, including ports and VLANs associated with the device "sup-fgt-hw" (FortiSwitch). Your reasoning indicates that this IP is the management address of the FortiSwitch, as it is consistently shown as the IP for the device containing the ports. In Fortinet’s architecture, as described in the NSE 8 study guide, the management IP of a FortiSwitch is typically configured and visible in such configurations, especially when integrated with FortiGate and FortiNAC. The "Device" column labeling "sup-fgt-hw" further supports that this is the FortiSwitch, and the IP 10.12.240.2 is its management address. This aligns with FortiSwitch management and integration details in the NSE 8 study guide.

D. An unknown host is connected to port3:This statement is correct as the exhibit highlights port3 under the "Name" column for the device "sup-fgt-hw" with a "Rogue Host" status in the "Connection" column, an IP address of 10.12.240.2, a Default VLAN of 100, and an Operational Status of "Link Up." In FortiNAC, a "Rogue Host" indicates an unknown or unauthorized device connected to the network, which FortiNAC identifies for further action or isolation. This is consistent with FortiNAC’s capabilities for detecting and classifying unknown devices, as detailed in the NSE 8 study guide under network access control and rogue device detection.

Why A and B are incorrect:

A. A device that is modeled in FortiNAC is connected on VLAN_4093: This is incorrect based on your clarification that there is no device connected on that port—it is simply the default VLAN (4093) for that entry. The exhibit shows VLAN_4093 with a "Not Connected" status and "Link Up" operational status, but no active device connection is indicated. The NSE 8 study guide emphasizes that FortiNAC requires an active connection and device profiling for a device to be considered "connected," which is not evident here for VLAN_4093.

B. Port8 is connected to a FortiGate in FortiLink mode: This is incorrect because the exhibit shows port8 with a "Learned Uplink" status, which, as you noted, refers to any kind of uplink and does not specifically indicate FortiLink mode. FortiLink mode is a specific configuration between FortiGate and FortiSwitch requiring explicit settings, which are not mentioned or implied in the exhibit. The NSE 8 study guide clarifies that FortiLink mode involves distinct configuration details (e.g., FortiLink interfaces), which are absent here.

FortiSIEM supports two methods for importing user defined Lookup Table Data:

Report: You can import lookup table data from a report. This is the most common method for importing lookup table data.

API: You can also import lookup table data using the FortiSIEM API. This is a more advanced method that allows you to import lookup table data programmatically.

FTP, SCP, and other file transfer protocols are not supported for importing lookup table data into FortiSIEM.
