20 Questions

Which type of links does FortiGate use to steer traffic sourced from the LAN and destined to cloud applications and websites on the internet?

Overlay links

What are the underlay links used for in the SD-WAN deployment?

To carry internet and MPLS traffic

What is the purpose of shortcut tunnels in AD-VPN?

To offload site-to-site traffic

What type of routing protocol is often used in SD-WAN deployments?

BGP

What is the recommended routing protocol for AD-VPN deployments?

IBGP

What is the purpose of speed tests in SD-WAN deployments?

To determine upstream speed

What is the role of the hub FortiGate in SD-WAN deployments?

To perform security inspections

What is the purpose of RIA in SD-WAN deployments?

To provide remote internet access

What is the advantage of using SD-WAN for corporate site-to-site traffic?

More scalable

What is the advantage of using AD-VPN in SD-WAN deployments?

Enhanced security

Which type of physical interfaces can be used to connect internet links to FortiGate?

Physical port

What is the most common use case for SD-WAN?

Direct internet access (DIA)

How are sensitive traffic and non-critical traffic treated in terms of link selection?

Sensitive traffic is expedited and steered over best performing links, while non-critical traffic is distributed across one or more links using a best effort approach.

What are costly internet links commonly used for?

Backup links or to steer critical traffic only

What is typically used for routing in this scenario?

Static default routes

When would BGP be used between the ISP and FortiGate?

When the site must advertise a public IP prefix

How can administrators prevent link saturation during traffic distribution?

Manually define the upstream and downstream speeds of each link

What can administrators use to automatically adjust link speeds based on speed test results?

SD-WAN bandwidth monitoring service

What is the term used to describe the multiple physical internet links?

Underlay links

What type of traffic leaves the organization boundaries directly on the local site?

Internet traffic

Test your knowledge on traffic steering and routing in SD-WAN networks with this quiz. Learn about the typical operations, including expedited traffic, failover, and static default routing. Explore how upstream and downstream speeds can be set, either manually by an administrator or automatically by an SD-WAN WAN monitoring service. Also, discover the benefits of direct internet access (DIA) in SD-WAN networks.
