Study Notes

FortiGate NSE 4 - FortiOS 7.2

Auto Discovery VPN (ADVPN)

  • Auto Discovery VPN (ADVPN) requires the use of dynamic routing protocols so that spokes can learn the routes to other spokes.
  • Tunnels are negotiated dynamically between spokes.

HA Uptime

  • HA uptime is used to determine which FortiGate device becomes the primary.
  • If the HA uptime of a device is at least 5 minutes more than the HA uptime of other FortiGate devices, it becomes the primary.

IPS Diagnostic Command

  • Option 5 of the IPS diagnostic command decreases CPU usage.
  • The IPS engine was inspecting a high volume of traffic.

NAT and Source IP

  • In a network configuration, the source IP address used to source NAT internet traffic coming from a workstation is determined by the IP pool or VIP configuration.

RPF Checking

  • RPF checking can be disabled in two ways:
    • By disabling the RPF check at the FortiGate interface level for the source check.
    • By disabling strict-arc-check under system settings.

Performance SLA

  • To generate traffic in a performance SLA, a gateway must be configured for the SD-WAN members, and the enable probe packets setting must be enabled.

SSL Inspection

  • For a certificate to be used as a CA certificate on SSL inspection, it must have the basic constraints extension set to cA=True and the value of the keyUsage extension set to keyCertSign.

Troubleshooting Layer 2 Issues

  • The get system arp command allows administrators to troubleshoot Layer 2 issues, such as an IP address conflict.

URL List and Application Control

  • When using a URL list and application control on the same firewall policy in NGFW policy-based mode, the scope of application control is limited to scan application traffic using parent signatures only.

IPsec VPN

  • In IPsec VPN, the dialup user type is used when the remote peer's IP address is unknown.
  • Dead peer detection must be disabled to support IPsec setup with multiple tunnels.

FortiGate in Transparent Mode

  • When FortiGate is in transparent mode, all interfaces are part of the same broadcast domain.
  • FortiGate forwards frames without changing the MAC address.

VLAN Configuration

  • Port1-vlan and port2-vlan can be assigned to the same VDOM or to different VDOMs.
  • Port1 is a native VLAN.

CLI Commands

  • diagnose sys ha dump-by vcluster command displays the HA uptime and priority of FortiGate devices.
  • get system arp command is used to troubleshoot Layer 2 issues.
  • diagnose wad session list command displays sessions from the client to the proxy and from the proxy to the servers.

Log Storage Options

  • The three remote log storage options available on FortiGate are:
    • FortiSIEM
    • FortiAnalyzer
    • FortiCloud

Debug Flow Output

  • The debug flow output shows the packet flow and can be used to troubleshoot issues.
  • The debug flow output can be used to identify the state of a session.

Session Diagnostic Output

  • The session diagnostic output shows the current state of a session.
  • The session diagnostic output can be used to identify the state of a session.

Video Filtering

  • Video filtering on FortiGate is available only on a proxy-based firewall policy.
  • Video filtering inspects video files hosted on file sharing services.

TCP Sessions

  • FortiGate keeps TCP sessions in the session table for some seconds even after both sides (client and server) have terminated the session.
  • This is to allow for out-of-order packets that could arrive after the FIN/ACK packets.

SSL VPN Web Mode

  • SSL VPN web mode requires only a web browser, but supports a limited number of protocols.
  • SSL VPN web mode does not assign a virtual IP address to the client.

Policy-Based Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)

  • Two policies must be configured to allow traffic on a policy-based next-generation firewall (NGFW) FortiGate:
    • Security policy
    • SSL inspection and authentication policy### Redundant VPNs
  • Redundant VPNs can be used to keep connectivity between sites up when the primary connection fails
  • Three DPD (Dead Peer Detection) modes are available: On demand, Periodic, and Bidirectional
  • DPD should be enabled on both ends
  • Add one phase 1 configuration for each tunnel
  • Add at least one phase 2 definition for each phase 1
  • Add one static route for each path
  • Use distance or priority to select primary routes over backup routes

NGFW Policy-Based Mode

  • In NGFW policy-based mode, URL list and application control can be used together to control traffic
  • However, the URL list is limited to inspecting traffic at the URL level, while application control can inspect traffic at a deeper level
  • Application control is more comprehensive and can provide more granular control over specific applications

VDOM Settings

  • Operating mode and NGFW mode can be configured separately per VDOM on a FortiGate device
  • This allows for combining transparent mode VDOMs with NAT mode VDOMs on the same physical FortiGate

Inspection of Web Applications

  • FortiGate can inspect sub-application traffic regardless of where it was originated
  • Application control can identify child and parent applications, and perform different actions on them based on the configuration
  • SSL inspection is not required to identify web applications

SSL VPN Settings

  • By default, split tunneling is enabled for SSL VPN
  • The admin GUI and SSL VPN portal use the same HTTPS port

Firewall Virtual Wire Pair Policy

  • Only a single virtual wire pair can be included in each policy
  • This allows for granular control over the specific traffic that can traverse each virtual wire pair

Session-Based Authentication

  • HTTP sessions are treated as a single user
  • IP sessions from the same source IP address are treated as a single user
  • It can differentiate among multiple clients behind the same source IP address
  • It requires more resources

Security Fabric Ratings

  • Provides executive summaries of the four largest areas of security focus
  • Many of the security issues can be fixed immediately by clicking Apply where available
  • The Security Fabric rating must be run on the root FortiGate device in the Security Fabric
  • The Security Fabric rating is a free service that comes bundled with all FortiGate devices

IPS Signature

  • The IPS signature setting uses a custom rating threshold
  • The signature setting includes a group of other signatures
  • Traffic matching the signature will be silently dropped and logged

FSSO Agentless Polling Mode

  • FortiGate uses the AD server as the collector agent
  • FortiGate uses the SMB protocol to read the event viewer logs from the DCs
  • It doesn't point the collector agent to use a remote LDAP server nor does it directly query AD using LDAP to retrieve user group information### Security Fabric Rating
  • Security Fabric Rating is a feature that helps to visualize, measure, and improve the security posture of a network.
  • When issues are detected, they are presented with an 'Apply' button which can help to fix many of these security issues immediately.
  • Security Fabric Rating is a built-in feature in FortiGate devices and does not require an additional purchase.

FortiGate Device Configuration

  • FortiGate devices can be configured with two virtual LAN (VLAN) subinterfaces added to the same physical interface.
  • In this scenario, the two VLAN subinterfaces must have different VLAN IDs.
  • Central NAT is enabled, so NAT settings from matching Central SNAT policies will be applied.

Firewall Policy

  • A firewall policy can be configured to allow destinations from LAN to WAN.
  • Central NAT is enabled, so NAT settings from matching Central SNAT policies will be applied.

FortiGuard Category-Based Filter

  • FortiGuard category-based filter can be used in a web filter profile UI proxy-based inspection mode.
  • Valid actions for FortiGuard category-based filter include Warning, Allow, and Exempt.

NAT Traversal in IPsec

  • NAT traversal in IPsec is used to detect intermediary NAT devices in the tunnel path.
  • It encapsulates ESP packets in UDP packets using port 4500.

Policy-Based Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)

  • FortiGate uses proxy-based inspection mode if it is configured as a policy-based next-generation firewall (NGFW).
  • This mode supports creating applications and web filtering categories directly in a firewall policy.

Auto Discovery VPN (ADVPN)

  • ADVPN requires the use of dynamic routing protocols so that spokes can learn the routes to other spokes.
  • Tunnels are negotiated dynamically between spokes.

Dead Peer Detection (DPD)

  • DPD is used to detect dead tunnels in IPsec VPN.
  • DPD can be configured to send probes only when no traffic is observed in the tunnel (On Idle mode).

Virtual IP (VIP)

  • VIP is used to bundle several VIPs into VIP groups.
  • The Services field in VIP configuration is used to prevent SNAT and DNAT from being combined in the same policy.

High Availability (HA) Cluster

  • An HA cluster can be configured to perform proxy-based inspection on traffic.
  • The cluster can load balance ICMP connections to the secondary.

Application Control Profile

  • An application control profile can be used to block or allow specific applications.
  • The profile can be configured to allow Apple FaceTime based on the Excessive-Bandwidth filter configuration.

SD-WAN Load Balancing

  • SD-WAN load balancing can be configured to use interface weight value to distribute traffic.
