In a FortiManager HA pair, which data is synchronized from the primary unit to the secondary unit?

Only the FortiManager system configuration and admin accounts

Only the device configuration revisions and firmware images

Configuration database, device configuration revisions, and session tables

All data, including logs and reports, in real time

What happens when the primary FortiManager unit fails in an HA pair?

Management traffic is paused until the primary is restored

All FortiGate devices lose management connectivity permanently

The secondary unit automatically takes over as the new primary

The secondary unit becomes active but requires manual configuration

A FortiManager administrator is managing a FortiGate cluster. The cluster members have different configurations due to a previous misconfiguration. The administrator wants to bring the cluster members back to a consistent state. What should the administrator do?

Manually configure each cluster member to match the desired configuration.

Reboot both cluster members to reset their configurations.

Use the FortiGate cluster's native synchronization feature to copy the configuration from one member to the other.

Install the desired configuration from FortiManager to the cluster, which will overwrite the configurations on both members.

Which failover mode is supported by FortiManager HA?

Both active-active and active-passive

A FortiManager administrator is managing a FortiGate cluster in active-passive mode. The cluster members have different firmware versions. The administrator wants to ensure that both cluster members have the same configuration and firmware. What should the administrator do in FortiManager to achieve this?

Manually configure each cluster member separately to ensure they match.

Push the configuration to the cluster and let FortiManager automatically align the firmware versions.

Use the FortiManager firmware upgrade feature to upgrade both cluster members to the same firmware version, then push the configuration.

Disable HA on the cluster, upgrade each member, and then re-enable HA.
