When you are setting up two FortiAuthenticator devices in active-passive HA, which HA role must you select on the master FortiAuthenticator?

CCluster member

DLoad balancing master

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

When you are setting up two FortiAuthenticator devices in active-passive HA, you need to select the active-passive master role on the master FortiAuthenticator device. This role means that the device will handle all requests and synchronize data with the slave device until a failover occurs. The slave device must be configured as an active-passive slave role. The other roles are used for different HA modes, such as standalone (no HA), cluster (active-active), or load balancing (active-active with load balancing).

Haha, I love how these questions try to trip you up with the specific terminology. 'Active-passive master' just sounds right, doesn't it? I'm going with that one too.

Hmm, this question is a bit tricky. I'm not entirely sure about the different HA roles for FortiAuthenticator devices, but I think the correct answer might be A) Active-passive master. That seems to make the most sense since we're setting up an active-passive HA configuration.
