An administrator is configuring SD-WAN on a FortiGate with three member interfaces (wan1, wan2, and wan3) in a single zone. They want to simplify routing by creating one route that covers all members instead of three separate routes. What should they configure?

A single static route with the device set to wan1 and rely on SD-WAN to failover to the others.

A static route with the destination 0.0.0.0/0 and the device set to the SD-WAN zone.

Three static routes, one for each member interface, each with the same destination.

A policy route that matches all traffic and sets the SD-WAN zone as the outgoing interface.

An administrator has configured a new SD-WAN zone static route in FortiManager and wants to deploy it to a specific group of FortiGates. What is the correct workflow?

Use FortiManager's CLI to configure each FortiGate individually.

Install the policy package that contains the SD-WAN configuration to the target FortiGates.

Create a new template and assign it to the FortiGates, then wait for them to pull the configuration.

Export the configuration from FortiManager and manually import it on each FortiGate.

What happens if a probe route is not configured for an SD-WAN member?

All traffic through the member is blocked

The member is automatically excluded from SD-WAN

Health checks for that member may fail or use the wrong interface, leading to inaccurate link quality assessment

The member's static route is deleted

Why does FortiOS maintain session tables in SD-WAN?

To ensure that all packets of a connection are forwarded consistently on the same path and to apply stateful firewall rules

To replace the need for routing tables

To store the entire routing table for faster lookup

To log all traffic for compliance purposes

What is the primary role of FortiManager in an SD-WAN deployment?

To centrally manage and deploy SD-WAN configurations and policies across multiple FortiGate devices

To act as a VPN concentrator for SD-WAN tunnels

To provide real-time traffic analytics only

To replace the need for FortiGate firewalls
