A FortiManager administrator notices that a managed FortiGate has many more revisions than expected. The device is configured with automatic updates enabled. Which explanation best accounts for the high number of revisions?

Every time the FortiGate's configuration changes locally (via CLI or GUI), FortiManager creates a new revision when it detects the change.

The administrator has enabled 'Revision History' logging, which captures a snapshot every five minutes by default.

The FortiGate is generating a new revision every time it sends a heartbeat to FortiManager.

FortiManager creates a new revision every time the device reboots, regardless of whether the configuration changed.

What is the purpose of the 'Compare' feature in FortiManager's revision history?

To synchronize the configuration of two devices

To display the differences between two selected revisions of a device's configuration

To check if a device's configuration is compliant with security policies

To merge two different device configurations into one

After rolling back a device to a previous revision, what should an administrator do to validate the change?

Reboot the device without checking anything

Delete the revision history to save space

Check the device's status and verify that the expected configuration is active

Immediately push a new configuration to the device

An organization has a compliance requirement that all configuration changes to a payment-processing firewall must be reviewed and approved before they are applied. Currently, FortiManager is set to automatically install changes. What configuration change in FortiManager would best satisfy this requirement?

Enable 'Revision History' and require that all admins document their changes in the comments field.

Set the automatic update to 'On Change' and configure the FortiGate to require a secondary approval via its local admin password.

Use the 'Install on Reboot' option so that changes are only applied when the firewall restarts.

Change the automatic update setting to 'Manual' so that changes are staged but not installed until an administrator explicitly approves and installs them.

What information is typically displayed in the revision history list for a managed device in FortiManager?

The date and time of the revision, the revision number, and the user who created it

The device's serial number and current firmware version only

The IP address of the device and its current uptime

The list of all firewall policies configured on the device
