FCSS_SDW_AR-7.6 Exam Dumps - FCSS - SD-WAN 7.6 Architect

The policy-route output shows the matching SD-WAN service for destination 10.66.0.0/24 is vwl_service=4 (LAN-to-Corp2) with vwl_mbr_seq=1 2 and paths oif=3(port1) and oif=4(port2). Therefore, traffic from 10.0.1.133 to 10.66.0.125 is steered via SD-WAN member ID 1 or 2.

The provisioning templates in FortiManager are designed for flexible, scalable configuration of large SD-WAN deployments. The official documentation explains:

"Template groups can consist of both system and SD-WAN templates, providing a way to apply consistent settings across multiple devices. CLI templates are evaluated and executed in order from top to bottom within the template group, which is crucial for managing dependencies. Furthermore, CLI template groups can contain both regular CLI templates and advanced (Perl-script-based) templates, allowing complex or conditional configuration logic."

This modular design streamlines large deployments by separating system, SD-WAN, and CLI logic into reusable building blocks.

The hub must send additional paths to spokes (set additional-path send).

The hub must treat each spoke as a route-reflector client so spoke routes are reflected to other spokes.

The hub must specify how many additional paths to advertise (set adv-additional-path ).

The implicit SD-WAN rule serves as the final catch-all. Per Fortinet:

"Sessions matching the implicit SD-WAN rule do not have an SD-WAN service id, as they are not associated with any specific user-defined SD-WAN rule. Additionally, this occurs only when traffic fails to match any entry in the policy route table. This default handling guarantees connectivity while minimizing the risk of blackholed traffic."

Administrators can observe this in diagnostic outputs for troubleshooting.

In FortiOS 7.6, SD-WAN rules can steer traffic based on Internet Services, which represent predefined application and service signatures maintained by FortiGuard. Common applications such as Facebook and LinkedIn are included in the Internet Service database.

According to the FCSS SD-WAN 7.6 curriculum, when configuring an SD-WAN rule from the GUI on a standalone FortiGate device, applications are selected as destinations using the Internet service field, not by enabling a separate application destination field. The exhibit highlights the Internet service option under the Destination section, which is the correct method to match traffic for specific applications.

Option A is incorrect because there is no GUI option to enable application visibility as destinations for SD-WAN rules. Application matching is already abstracted through Internet Services.

Option C is incorrect because standalone FortiGate devices fully support application-based steering using Internet Services in SD-WAN rules.

Option D is incorrect because no additional license is required to use Internet Services in SD-WAN rules. This functionality is included in FortiOS and relies on the built-in FortiGuard Internet Service database.

Therefore, to steer Facebook and LinkedIn traffic through a specific WAN link, you must select Facebook and LinkedIn in the Internet service field, which corresponds to option B.

From the SD-WAN service configuration, rule edit 3 (name "Corp") is configured with:

set mode sla

set load-balance enable

set dst "Corp-net"

set src "LAN-net"

SLA checks referenced under config sla

Traffic from 10.0.1.101 to 10.0.0.126 matches this rule because the destination is within the corporate network range (shown in the policy-route/proute output as destination 10.0.0.0–10.255.255.255 for the Corp service).

In the diagnose firewall proute list output for vwl_service=3 (Corp), FortiGate shows which SD-WAN members are eligible based on SLA pass results:

oif=21 (HUB1-VPN3) num_pass=2

oif=20 (HUB1-VPN2) num_pass=0

oif=19 (HUB1-VPN1) num_pass=0

This indicates that, for the SLA-based rule, only HUB1-VPN3 is meeting the SLA requirements (it is the only member with num_pass=2). The other members have num_pass=0, so they are not eligible for forwarding under this SLA rule even though links are up.

The sniffer trace further corroborates the forwarding decision by showing the traffic egressing through HUB1-VPN3.

Therefore, FortiGate will steer the HTTP traffic through only HUB1-VPN3, which corresponds to Option A.
