What is the purpose of running the command diagnose sql status sqlreportd?
Correct Answer: C
The command diagnose sql status sqlreportd is used in FortiAnalyzer to obtain specific information about the SQL reporting process and caching status. Here's what this command accomplishes and an analysis of each option: * Command Functionality: * sqlreportd is the FortiAnalyzer daemon responsible for managing SQL-based reporting processes. * The diagnose sql status sqlreportd command provides information on active SQL query connections and thehcache(historical cache) status, which helps in monitoring and troubleshooting SQL report generation. * Option Analysis: * Option A - To View a List of Scheduled Reports: * This option is incorrect because the command does not list scheduled reports. Instead, it focuses on SQL reporting processes and cache details. * Option B - To List the Current SQL Processes Running: * While the command may show active SQL connections, its primary focus is not a detailed list of all SQL processes but rather the connections and cache status for reporting. * Option C - To Display the SQL Query Connections and hcache Status: * This is correct. The command specifically provides information on SQL query connections related to the reporting process (sqlreportd) and displays thehcachestatus. * Option D - To Identify the Database Log Insertion Status: * This is incorrect. The command does not provide details on log insertion status. Log insertion status is typically monitored through different diagnostic commands focused on database processes and log handling. Conclusion: * Correct Answer:C. To display the SQL query connections and hcache status * This command is used to monitor SQL reporting activities and cache status, aiding in the analysis of report generation performance and connection health. References: * FortiAnalyzer 7.4.1 documentation on SQL diagnostic commands, particularly those related to reporting (sqlreportd) and caching mechanisms.
Question 27
What is the main purpose of using an NTP server on FortiAnalyzer and all of its registered devices?
Correct Answer: B
Question 28
As part of your analysis, you discover that an incident is a false positive. You change the incident status to Closed: False Positive. Which statement about your update is true?
Correct Answer: A
When an incident in FortiAnalyzer is identified as a false positive and its status is updated to "Closed: False Positive," certain records and logs are updated to reflect this change. * Option A - The Audit History Log Will Be Updated: * FortiAnalyzer maintains an audit history log that records changes to incidents, including updates to their status. When an incident status is marked as "Closed: False Positive," this action is logged in the audit history to ensure traceability of changes. This log provides accountability and a record of how incidents have been handled over time. * Conclusion:Correct. * Option B - The Corresponding Event Will Be Marked as Mitigated: * Changing an incident to "Closed: False Positive" does not affect the status of the original event itself. Marking an incident as a false positive signifies that it does not represent a real threat, but it does not imply that the event has been mitigated. * Conclusion:Incorrect. * Option C - The Incident Will Be Deleted: * Marking an incident as "Closed: False Positive" does not delete the incident from FortiAnalyzer. Instead, it updates the status to reflect that it is not a real threat, allowing for historical analysis and preventing similar false positives in the future. Deletion would typically only occur manually or by a different administrative action. * Conclusion:Incorrect. * Option D - The Incident Number Will Be Changed: * The incident number is a unique identifier and does not change when the status of the incident is updated. This identifier remains constant throughout the incident's lifecycle for tracking and reference purposes. * Conclusion:Incorrect. Conclusion: * Correct Answer:A. The audit history log will be updated. * This is the most accurate answer, as the update to "Closed: False Positive" is recorded in FortiAnalyzer' s audit history log for accountability and tracking purposes.

Question 29
Refer to Exhibit: Client-1 is trying to access the internet for web browsing. All FortiGate devices in the topology are part of a Security Fabric with logging to FortiAnalyzer configured. All firewall policies have logging enabled. All web filter profiles are configured to log only violations. Which statement about the logging behavior for this specific traffic flow is true?
Correct Answer: C
The topology shows a Security Fabric setup involving FortiGate devices (FGT-A and FGT-B) and a FortiAnalyzer for centralized logging. Let's break down the logging and traffic flow behavior: Traffic Flow Analysis: Client-1 initiates web traffic directed to the internet, which is routed through FGT-B and then FGT-A before reaching the internet. This is indicated by the direction of the red-dashed arrow from Client-1 through FGT-B to FGT-A. Policy and NAT Settings: On FGT-B, NAT is disabled, meaning it will pass the traffic through without altering the source IP. This device has a Web Filter enabled with a policy to log violations only. On FGT-A, NAT is enabled, and a Web Filter profile is also applied. Like FGT-B, it logs only violations for web filtering. Logging Behavior: Since both FortiGate devices have logging enabled for traffic and web filtering, they can create logs if conditions are met. FGT-B will log all traffic, as per its configuration, and will also create web filter logs if it detects a violation, as the web filter profile is applied. Because NAT is disabled on FGT-B, it processes the traffic but doesn't perform any address translation, allowing it to see the original source IP of Client-1. FGT-A, as the Security Fabric root, will handle NAT and forward the traffic to the internet. However, in this case, the question is focused on where the traffic and web filter logs would be generated first, particularly by FGT-B. Option Analysis: Option A - Only FGT-B will create traffic logs: This is incorrect because FGT-B can create both traffic logs and web filter logs if it detects a violation. Option B - FGT-B will see the MAC address of FGT-A and notify FGT-A to log: This is not how logging works in this setup. Each FortiGate logs independently based on configured policies. Option C - FGT-B will create traffic logs and will create web filter logs if it detects a violation: This is correct, as FGT-B has logging enabled and will log traffic and web filter violations. Option D - Only FGT-A will create web filter logs if it detects a violation: This is incorrect, as FGT-B can also log web filter violations independently. Conclusion: Correct Answe r : C. FGT-B will create traffic logs and will create web filter logs if it detects a violation. FGT-B is responsible for logging the traffic from Client-1 and will generate web filter logs if there is a policy violation, as configured.
