Question 190
A FortiOS 7.6 team examines: A change request requires showing exactly which firewall policy handles one test connection. Select TWO complementary choices: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success.
Explanation
Correct Answers
For the observed situation (A change request requires showing exactly which firewall policy handles one test connection), the most specific acceptance evidence is: A reproducible flow matches the intended policy identifier and the recorded action agrees with the approved design. It validates the recommended response: Place precise FortiGate firewall rules in the intended evaluation order and verify first-match behavior for test flows. This addresses the documented risk: A broad early permit or deny may match before a later more-specific rule, causing unintended access or blockage.
The reported FortiOS 7.6 condition is: A change request requires showing exactly which firewall policy handles one test connection. The targeted administrative response is: Place precise FortiGate firewall rules in the intended evaluation order and verify first-match behavior for test flows. The relevant failure risk is: A broad early permit or deny may match before a later more-specific rule, causing unintended access or blockage. Validate with: A reproducible flow matches the intended policy identifier and the recorded action agrees with the approved design.

Authentication session visibility and revocation (2.3) addresses another technical failure: Removed group membership may not immediately terminate an already established authenticated session without lifecycle controls. The case states: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success. The most direct paired action and test is: A reproducible flow matches the intended policy identifier and the recorded action agrees with the approved design.
Central snat versus policy nat selection (2.2) would demonstrate or implement: Session and translation inspections show the intended matched central or policy-based NAT rule for each tested flow. The required paired action and test concerns Top-down firewall policy matching; a passing result for this alternative could leave that requirement unresolved.
Fsso group filter and policy authorization (2.4) would demonstrate or implement: A recognized domain user can still be allowed too broadly or denied if group selection and policy order differ. The paired-answer requirement concerns Top-down firewall policy matching; this alternative does not provide the matching intervention and separate acceptance evidence.
