Which two factors are required for an active-active HA configuration of FortiMail in server mode? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is B. Mail data must be stored on a NAS server. D. Devices must be deployed behind a load balancer. FortiMail in server-mode active-active requires a shared mail store (e.g. NAS) so both units see the same data, and an external load-balancer (or DNS round-robin) to distribute SMTP sessions across the pair.
