Actual exam question for Fortinet's FCP_WCS_AD-7.4 exam
Question #: 15
Topic #: 5
[All FCP_WCS_AD-7.4 Questions]

You want to deploy the Fortinet HA CloudFormation template to stage and bootstrap the FortiGate configuration in the same region in which you created your VPC, which is Ohio US-East-2.

Based on this information, which statement is correct?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Understanding Fortinet HA CloudFormation Template:

The Fortinet High Availability (HA) CloudFormation template is used to automate the deployment and configuration of FortiGate instances in AWS.

Staging and Bootstrapping FortiGate:

Staging involves preparing the necessary configuration files and resources needed for deployment.

Bootstrapping is the process of automatically configuring FortiGate instances upon deployment.

S3 Bucket Requirement:

The configuration files required for staging and bootstrapping are typically stored in an S3 bucket.

Since the deployment is in the Ohio (US-East-2) region, it is recommended to host the S3 bucket in the same region to minimize latency and ensure regional compliance.

Comparison with Other Options:

Option A is incorrect because while an S3 bucket is required, it should be in the same region (US-East-2).

Option B is incorrect as the template does not automatically create the S3 bucket.

Option D is incorrect as DynamoDB is not used for staging and bootstrapping in this scenario.

Wait, is the S3 bucket going to be big enough to hold all the FortiGate configuration data? I hope they're not using the same bucket for their vacation photos!

C) You create an S3 bucket to stage and bootstrap FortiGate with an FGCP unicast configuration. The S3 bucket needs to be hosted in the Ohio US-East-2 region.

I'm not sure, but I think option D could also be correct since DynamoDB can be used for configuration.

I agree with Melynda, because the S3 bucket needs to be in the same region as the VPC.

Option D sounds like a trap. DynamoDB? Nah, that's not the right way to bootstrap FortiGate. I'll go with C.

Great, let's go with Option C then. It's important to follow the correct steps for setting up FortiGate.

Yeah, I agree. Option C makes more sense. The S3 bucket should be hosted in the same region as the VPC.

Hmm, I was leaning towards option B, but now I'm not so sure. Guess I'll have to double-check the Fortinet documentation to be certain.

I agree with Rana. The region is a critical factor here, and the question specifically mentions the Ohio US-East-2 region, so the S3 bucket has to be in that same region.

Option C seems like the right answer. The S3 bucket needs to be in the same region as the VPC for the FortiGate configuration to be bootstrapped properly.
