Question

A FortiGate devices has two VDOMs in NAT/route mode. Which of the following solutions can be implemented by a network administrator to route traffic between the two VDOMs.(Choose two)

Options

  • AUse the inter-VDOMs links automatically created between all VDOMS.
  • BManually create and configured an inter-VDOM link between yours.
  • CInterconnect and configure an external physical interface in one VDOM to another physical
  • DConfigure both VDOMs to share the same table.

Explanation

Routing traffic between FortiGate VDOMs in NAT/route mode can be achieved by either manually configuring virtual inter-VDOM links or by physically connecting dedicated interfaces from each VDOM.

Common mistakes.

  • A. FortiGate does not automatically create inter-VDOM links between all VDOMs; these virtual interfaces must be manually configured by an administrator if inter-VDOM routing is desired.
  • D. VDOMs are designed for logical separation, each operating with its own distinct routing table; configuring them to share the same routing table would defeat the purpose of VDOM isolation in NAT/route mode.
