Question #: 21
Topic #: 1
You recently deployed two FortiWeb devices in an active-active (A-A) high availability (HA) cluster.
During routine maintenance, you want to confirm that the cluster is synchronizing the correct configuration areas and that both FortiWeb devices behave consistently in production.
As the FortiWeb administrator, which two configuration areas should you examine to verify that HA synchronization is functioning correctly? (Choose two.)

Suggested Answer: A,B Vote an answer
To validate HA synchronization, the administrator should compare the configuration areas that affect traffic handling and security enforcement. Network configuration, such as interface and routing alignment, is important because HA peers must process traffic consistently. Policy configuration is also critical because server policies, protection profiles, rules, and related web security settings determine how FortiWeb inspects and blocks requests. Logs are not the right synchronization target for this question; log files are used for investigation, not for proving configuration synchronization. Firmware images and upgrade history are also not the normal operational configuration areas used to verify HA policy behavior. The correct verification focus is network configuration consistency and web protection/server policy consistency across the HA cluster.
