Question #1
Refer to the exhibit.
The image displays "he configuration of a FortiAnalyzer the administrator wants to join to an existing HA cluster.
What can you conclude from the configuration displayed?
- A . After joining to the cluster, this FortiAnalyzer will keep an updated log database.
- B . This FortiAnalyzer will trigger a failover after losing communication with its peers for 10 seconds.
- C . This FortiAnalyzer will join to the existing HA cluster as the primary.
- D . This FortiAnalyzer is configured to receive logs in its port1.
Correct Answer: D
D
Explanation:
The configuration displayed in the exhibit indicates that the FortiAnalyzer is set up with a cluster virtual IP address of 192.168.101.222 assigned to interface port1. This setup is typically used for the FortiAnalyzer to receive logs on that interface when operating in a High Availability (HA) configuration. The exhibit does not provide enough information to conclude whether this FortiAnalyzer will be the primary unit in the HA cluster or the duration for the failover trigger; it only confirms the interface configuration for log reception.
Reference: Based on the FortiAnalyzer 7.4.1 Administration Guide, the similar configurations for HA and log reception are discussed, which would be relevant for understanding the settings in FortiAnalyzer 7.2.

Question #2
Which feature can you configure to add redundancy to FortiAnalyzer?
- A . Primary and secondary DNS
- B . VLAN interfaces
- C . IPv6 administrative access
- D . Link aggregation
Correct Answer: D
D
Explanation:
Link aggregation is a method used to combine multiple network connections in parallel to increase throughput and provide redundancy in case one of the links fail. This feature is used in network appliances, including FortiAnalyzer, to add redundancy to the network connections, ensuring that there is a backup path for traffic if the primary path becomes unavailable.

Question #3
What are analytics logs on FortiAnalyzer?
- A . Logs that are compressed and saved to a log file
- B . Logs that roll over when the log file reaches a specific size
- C . Logs that are indexed and stored in the SQL
- D . Logs classified as type Traffic, or type Security
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
On FortiAnalyzer, analytics logs refer to the logs that have been processed, indexed, and then stored in the SQL database. This process allows for efficient data retrieval and analytics. Unlike basic log storage, which might involve simple compression and storage in a file system, analytics logs in FortiAnalyzer undergo an indexing process. This enables advanced features such as quick search, report generation, and detailed analysis, making it easier for administrators to gain insights into network activities and security incidents.

Question #4
Which statement is true when you are upgrading the firmware on an HA cluster made up of throe
FortiAnalyzer devices?
- A . All FortiAnalyzer devices will be upgraded at the same time.
- B . Enabling uninterruptible-upgrade prevents normal operations from being interrupted during the upgrade.
- C . You can perform the firmware upgrade using only a console connection.
- D . First, upgrade the secondary devices, and then upgrade the primary device.
Correct Answer: D
D
Explanation:
In an HA cluster, the firmware upgrade process involves upgrading the secondary devices first. This approach ensures that the primary device can continue to handle traffic and maintain the operational stability of the network while the secondary devices are being upgraded. Once the secondary devices have successfully upgraded their firmware and are operational, the primary device can then be upgraded. This method minimizes downtime and maintains network integrity during the upgrade process.
When upgrading firmware in a High Availability (HA) cluster of FortiAnalyzer units, the recommended practice is to first upgrade the secondary devices before upgrading the primary device. This approach ensures that the primary device, which coordinates the cluster’s operations, remains functional for as long as possible, minimizing the impact on log collection and analysis. Once the secondary devices are successfully upgraded and operational, the primary device can be upgraded, ensuring a smooth transition and maintaining continuous operation of the cluster.

Question #5
What is the best approach to handle a hard disk failure on a FortiAnalyzer that supports hardware RAID?
- A . Shul down FortiAnalyzer and replace the disk.
- B . Perform a hot swap of the disk.
- C . Run execute format disk to format and restart the FortiAnalyzer device.
- D . There is no need to do anything because the disk will self-recover.
Correct Answer: B
B
Explanation:
In systems that support hardware RAID, hot swapping allows for the replacement of a failed disk without shutting down the system. This capability is crucial for maintaining uptime and ensuring data redundancy and availability, especially in critical environments. The RAID controller rebuilds the data on the new disk using redundancy data from the other disks in the array, ensuring no data loss and minimal impact on system performance.
In the context of a FortiAnalyzer unit equipped with hardware RAID support, the optimal approach to addressing a hard disk failure is to perform a hot swap of the disk. Hardware RAID configurations are
designed to provide redundancy and fault tolerance, allowing for the replacement of a failed disk without the need to shut down the system. Hot swapping enables the administrator to replace the faulty disk with a new one while the system is still running, and the RAID controller will rebuild the data on the new disk, restoring the RAID array to its fully operational state.

Question #6
After you have moved a registered logging device out of one ADOM and into a new ADOM, you run the following command: execute sql-local rebuild-adom <new-ADOM-name>
What is the purpose of running this CLI command?
- A . To reset the ADOM disk quota enforcement to its default value
- B . To migrate the archive logs to the new ADOM
- C . To populate the new ADOM with analytical logs for the moved device, so you can run reports
- D . To remove the analytics logs of the device from the old database
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
When you move a registered logging device from one ADOM (Administrative Domain) to another in FortiAnalyzer, it’s essential to ensure that the analytical logs for the moved device are available in the new ADOM to maintain continuity in reporting and log analysis. The command execute sql-local rebuild-adom <new-ADOM-name> is used specifically for this purpose. Running this command populates the new ADOM with the analytical logs of the moved device, enabling you to generate accurate and comprehensive reports based on the historical data of the device in its new ADOM context. This process ensures that the transition of devices between ADOMs does not lead to a loss of analytical insight or reporting capabilities for the device’s traffic and events.

Question #7
You finished registering a FortiGate device. After traffic starts to flow through FortiGate. you notice that only some of the logs expected are being received on FortiAnalyzer.
What could be the reason for the logs not arriving on FortiAnalyzer?
- A . FortiGate does not have logging configured correctly.
- B . This FortiGate model is not fully supported.
- C . This FortiGate is part of an HA cluster but it is the secondary device.
- D . FortiGate was added to the wrong ADOM type.
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
This FortiGate is part of an HA (High Availability) cluster, but it is a secondary device. In an HA configuration, typically only the primary device is responsible for sending logs to FortiAnalyzer, while the secondary device may not send logs unless the primary device fails.

Question #8
Refer to the exhibit.
Which image corresponds to the packet capture shown in the exhibit?
A)
B)
C)
- A . Option A
- B . Option B
- C . Option C
Correct Answer: A
A
Explanation:
The exhibit shows a packet capture with a syslog message containing a log event from a FortiGate device. This log event includes several details such as the date, time, and event message. The corresponding image that matches this packet capture would be the one which shows that the FortiGate device has logs being received in real-time, as indicated by the highlighted section in the packet capture where it mentions "real-time". Therefore, Option A is the correct answer because it shows logs with "Real Time" status for the FortiGate-VM64 device, indicating that this FortiAnalyzer is currently receiving real-time logs from the device, matching the activity in the packet capture.
Reference: Based on the provided exhibits and the real-time logging information, correlated with the knowledge from the FortiAnalyzer 7.2 Administrator documentation regarding log reception and device management.
