In FortiGate architecture, what is the primary role of the Network Processor (NP)?

To offload repetitive packet-processing tasks from the main CPU, such as encryption and forwarding

To provide out-of-band management access to the FortiGate

To store the routing table and forwarding information base for the entire device

To run the FortiOS operating system and manage the control plane

A FortiGate 600E is deployed in a data center. The administrator is concerned about the performance of a new application that uses many small, short-lived UDP sessions. The administrator notices that these sessions are not being offloaded to the NP. What is the most likely reason for this?

The sessions are too short-lived for the NP to offload

The sessions are using a non-standard destination port

The FortiGate is configured to not offload UDP traffic

The UDP protocol is not supported by the NP

An administrator has just enabled NP offloading on a FortiGate to improve throughput for a large number of UDP-based streaming sessions. After the change, the administrator wants to verify that the sessions are actually being offloaded to the NP processor. Which FortiGate CLI command will directly show the offload status for these active UDP sessions?
