You want to know which content processor (CP) model FortiGate contains. Which command should you enter?

Question

Options

• Aget hardware status
• Bdiagnose hardware deviceinfo
• Cget hardware cp
• Ddiagnose hardware lspci | grep 4e36

• A
  88% (38)
• B
  7% (3)
• C
  2% (1)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

get hardware status correctly identifies the CP model because it displays a summary of the FortiGate's hardware components, including the content processor (CP) chip information, making it the right command for this purpose. Option B (diagnose hardware deviceinfo) provides device information but is not the designated command for CP model details. Option C (get hardware cp) is syntactically plausible but is not a valid FortiGate command. Option D (diagnose hardware lspci | grep 4e36) references a PCI device ID lookup, which is not the standard method for identifying CP models on FortiOS.

Memory tip: Think "get the hardware status" - when you want a quick overview of what's in the box (CPUs, ASICs, CP chips), get hardware status gives you that snapshot. The word "status" signals a readable summary of installed hardware components.
