What does the circular distribution of sessions mean in the given example?

Sessions are distributed using round-robin

What is the purpose of load balancing sessions across all members?

What is the default cost for members in a lowest cost SLA strategy?

0

How does FortiGate determine the preference of a member in a lowest cost SLA strategy if it meets the same number of SLA targets as other members?

Member cost

In a lowest cost SLA strategy, how does FortiGate select the preferred member if none of the members meet the SLA target?

Based on member cost

What is the purpose of the lowest cost SLA strategy in FortiGate?

Traffic steering

SLA target

Can a rule in a lowest cost SLA strategy select multiple SLA targets from the same performance SLA?

No

How does FortiGate determine the preference of a member in a lowest cost SLA strategy based on member priority?

Based on the order of configuration

What is the purpose of the member cost in a lowest cost SLA strategy?

To determine member priority

How many SLA targets must be selected in a rule in a lowest cost SLA strategy?

Any number

Which command output field is used to interpret the SLA targets configured in a performance SLA?

sla_map

What is the tiebreaker used when all members meet the SLA target and have the same cost in a lowest cost SLA rule?

Member priority

In a lowest cost SLA rule, which member becomes the preferred member if it has a lower cost than the other member(s) that meet the SLA target?

T_MPLS

In a lowest cost SLA rule where none of the members meet the SLA target, which member is placed on the top of the list?

T_INET_0

In a lowest cost SLA rule with two SLA targets, which member becomes the preferred member if it meets both SLA targets?

T_MPLS

Which load balancing method instructs FortiGate to distribute sessions across preferred members based on the number of SLA targets they meet?

Maximise Bandwidth SLA

Which load balancing algorithm is the default for FortiGate when using the Maximise Bandwidth SLA load balancing method?

Round-robin

Which load balancing algorithm instructs FortiGate to send sessions sourced from an IP-address to the same member?

Source-ip-based

Which load balancing algorithm instructs FortiGate to send sessions with the same source and destination IP pair to the same member?

Source-dest-ip-based

Which load balancing method does FortiGate use to send sessions to the member with the most available incoming bandwidth?

Inbandwidth
