Actual exam question for Fortinet's NSE8_812 exam

Question #: 35
Topic #: 6

Refer to the exhibit, which shows the high availability configuration for the FortiAuthenticator (FAC1).

Based on this information, which statement is true about the next FortiAuthenticator (FAC2) member that will join an HA cluster with this FortiAuthenticator (FAC1)?

AFAC2 can only process requests when FAC1 fails.

BFAC2 can have its HA interface on a different network than FAC1.

CThe FortiToken license will need to be installed on the FAC2.

DFSSO sessions from FAC1 will be synchronized to FAC2.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

When FortiAuthenticator operates in cluster mode, it provides active-passive failover and synchronization of all configuration and data, including FSSO sessions, between the cluster members. Therefore, if FAC1 is the active unit and FAC2 is the standby unit, any FSSO sessions from FAC1 will be synchronized to FAC2. If FAC1 fails, FAC2 will take over the active role and continue to process the FSSO sessions.

I'm not sure, but I think B) FAC2 can have its HA interface on a different network than FAC1 could also be a possibility.
