An administrator has a FortiSwitch with a 40G QSFP+ port that is connected to a server with four 10G SFP+ ports. The administrator wants to use all four server ports to increase bandwidth and redundancy. What should the administrator do on the FortiSwitch?

Enable split port on the QSFP+ port to create four 10G ports, then connect each to a server SFP+ port.

Use a QSFP+ to SFP+ breakout cable and connect it to one server port, leaving the others unused.

Replace the QSFP+ module with an SFP+ module and connect it to one server port.

Configure the QSFP+ port as a trunk port and connect it to one of the server's SFP+ ports.

A network administrator needs to change a FortiSwitch port from its default auto-negotiation behavior to a fixed speed and duplex setting for a legacy device. Which FortiSwitch CLI command correctly sets the port speed to 100 Mbps and duplex to full?

config switch physical-port edit port1 set speed 100 set duplex full end

config switch port edit port1 set speed 100 set duplex full end

config system interface edit port1 set speed 100 set duplex full end

config switch interface edit port1 set speed 100 set duplex full end

An administrator is considering splitting a 40G port on a FortiSwitch to increase port density. The switch model supports split port. What is the primary benefit of using split port?

It provides more ports for connecting devices, each with lower speed.

It allows the port to support multiple transceiver types.

It increases the total bandwidth of the switch.

It enables the port to be used as a trunk port.
