• A is correct because in this deployment, the passive FortiGate issues API calls to Azure to update the routing table and the public IP address of the active FortiGate123. This way, the traffic is redirected to the new active FortiGate after a failover.
• B is incorrect because the vdom-exception command is used to exclude specific VDOMs from being synchronized in an HA cluster.This command is not related to this deployment scenario.
• C is incorrect because Microsoft Azure does provide an SLA for API calls. According to the Azure Service Level Agreements, the API Management service has a monthly uptime percentage of at least 99.9% for the standard tier and higher.
• D is correct because by default, the configuration is not synchronized between the primary and secondary devices in this deployment. The administrator needs to manually enable configuration synchronization on both devices123. Alternatively, the administrator can use FortiManager to manage and synchronize the configuration of both devices4.

The three settings that should be checked while troubleshooting this problem are:

• Ensure FortiGate port4 can resolve DNS. This is because the Azure SDN connector requires DNS resolution to communicate with the Azure API1. If the FortiGate port4 cannot resolve DNS, the SDN connector will not be able to retrieve the Azure resources and display them in the GUI.
• Ensure FortiGate portl has internet access. This is because the Azure SDN connector requires internet access to communicate with the Azure API1. If the FortiGate portl does not have internet access, the SDNconnector will not be able to connect to the Azure cloud and display an error in the CLI.
• Ensure IP address 169.254.169_254 is not blocked. This is because the Azure SDN connector uses this IP address to obtain metadata information from the Azure instance2. If this IP address is blocked by a firewall policy or a network ACL, the SDN connector will not be able to get the required information and display an error in the CLI.

To configure a FortiGate VM to add to FortiCNP, you need to perform three steps on FortiGate:

• Enable send logs in FortiGate to allow FortiCNP to receive the IPS logs from FortiGate.
• Create an SSL/SSH inspection profile on FortiGate to inspect the encrypted traffic and apply IPS protection.
• Create an IPS sensor and a firewall policy on FortiGate to enable IPS detection and prevention for the traffic.

According to the AWS documentation for Transit Gateway, a Transit Gateway is a network transit hub that connects VPCs and on-premises networks. To route traffic from Linux instances to the TGW, you need to do the following steps:

• In the TGW route table, associate two attachments. An attachment is a resource that connects a VPC or VPN to a Transit Gateway. By associating the attachments to the TGW route table, you enable the TGW to route traffic between the VPCs and the VPN.
• In the main subnet routing table in VPC A and B, add a new route with destination 0_0.0.0/0, next hop TGW. This route directs all traffic from the Linux instances to the TGW, which can then forward it to the appropriate destination based on the TGW route table.

The other options are incorrect because:

• In the TGW route table, adding route propagation to 192.168.0 0/16 is not necessary, as this is already the default route for the TGW. Route propagation allows you to automatically propagate routes from your VPC or VPN to your TGW route table.
• In the main subnet routing table in VPC A and B, adding a new route with destination 0_0.0.0/0, next hop Internet gateway (IGW) is not correct, as this would bypass the TGW and send all traffic directly to the internet. An IGW is a VPC component that enables communication between instances in your VPC and the internet.

• A is incorrect because the terraform plan command will not deploy any resources at all. It will only show the changes that would be made if the terraform apply command was run. The error message in the exhibit indicates that the service principal details are invalid, which means that Terraform cannot authenticate to Azure and cannot create any resources1.
• B is incorrect because you can run the terraform apply command without running the terraform plan command first. The terraform apply command will automatically generate a new plan and prompt you to approve it before applying it2. However, running the terraform plan command first can help you preview the changes and avoid any unwanted or unexpected actions.
• C is correct because you must run the terraform init command once before the terraform plan command. The terraform init command initializes a working directory containing Terraform configuration files. It downloads and installs the provider plugins required for your configuration, such as the Azure provider2. It also creates a hidden directory called .terraform to store the plugin binaries and other metadata1. Without running the terraform init command, the terraform plan command will fail because it cannot find the required plugins or modules.
• D is correct because the terraform plan command makes Terraform do a dry run. A dry run is a simulation of what would happen if you executed a certain action, without actually performing it. The terraform plan command creates an execution plan, which is a description of the actions that Terraform would take to make your infrastructure match your configuration2. The execution plan shows you what resources will be created, modified, or destroyed, and what attributes will be changed. The execution plan does not affect your infrastructure or state file until you apply it with the terraform apply command1.

The correct answer is B and C. Both landing subnets in the spoke VPCs must have a 0.0.0.0/0 traffic route to the TGW. Both landing subnets in the security VPC must have a 0.0.0.0/0 traffic route to the FortiGate port2.

According to the AWS documentation for Transit Gateway, a transit gateway is a network transit hub that connects VPCs and on-premises networks. To send outbound traffic from the Linux instances to the internet through the security VPC, you need to do the following steps:

• In the main subnet routing table in the spoke VPCs, add a new route with destination 0.0.0.0/0, next hop TGW. This route directs all traffic from the Linux instances to the TGW, which can then forward it to the appropriate destination based on the TGW route table.
• In the main subnet routing table in the security VPC, add a new route with destination 0.0.0.0/0, next hop FortiGate port2. This route directs all traffic from the TGW to the FortiGate internal interface, where it can be inspected and allowed by the FortiGate policies.

The other options are incorrect because:

• Adding a 0.0.0.0/0 traffic route to the Internet Gateway (IGW) in the spoke VPCs is not correct, as this would bypass the TGW and the security VPC and send all traffic directly to the internet.
• Adding a 0.0.0.0/0 traffic route to the TGW in all the VPCs is not necessary, as only the spoke VPCs need to send traffic to the TGW. The security VPC needs to send traffic to the FortiGate port2.

When adding the Amazon Web Services (AWS) account to the FortiCNP, you must follow these three mandatory configuration steps:

• Add AWS accounts through FortiCNP. This is the first step to enable cloud protection for your AWS account. You can add one or multiple accounts automatically or manually. You need to provide the AWS account ID and a name for the account. You also need to select the optional permissions to be granted to FortiCNP as needed1.
• Accept FortiCNP to create CloudTrail for the account. This is required for FortiCNP to collect and analyze the AWS API calls and events. You can choose to let FortiCNP create a CloudTrail for the account or use an existing one. You also need to specify the aggregation region for the CloudTrail1.
• Launch the CloudFormation template. This is required for FortiCNP to create a stack and a role in your AWS account. The stack contains the resources that FortiCNP needs to access and monitor your AWS account. The role allows FortiCNP to assume it and perform actions on your behalf. You need to enter a custom or default role name and a unique UUID that is designated for your company on FortiCNP1.
