Why each option

Based on the provided correct answer, the FortiGate is configured to drop new network sessions that are identified as requiring inspection.

AIt is allowed, but with no inspection

Allowing traffic without inspection would bypass the required inspection, which contradicts a dropping action based on inspection requirements.

BIt is allowed and inspected as long as the inspection is flow based

If traffic is dropped, it is not allowed to proceed for inspection, regardless of whether that inspection is flow-based.

CIt is dropped.Correct

The correct answer indicates that the FortiGate is configured to drop new sessions requiring inspection. This behavior typically results from a security policy or inspection profile explicitly set to block such traffic, or due to a failure in the inspection process.

DIt is allowed and inspected, as long as the only inspection required is antivirus.

If traffic is dropped, it is not allowed for any type of inspection, including antivirus, as the session itself is terminated.
