When you are setting up two FortiAuthenticator devices in active-passive HA, which HA role must you select on the master FortiAuthenticator?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

When you are setting up two FortiAuthenticator devices in active-passive HA, you need to select the active-passive master role on the master FortiAuthenticator device. This role means that the device will handle all requests and synchronize data with the slave device until a failover occurs. The slave device must be configured as an active-passive slave role. The other roles are used for different HA modes, such as standalone (no HA), cluster (active-active), or load balancing (active-active with load balancing).

I'm not sure, but I think it's C) Cluster member because it sounds like they need to work together in a cluster.

Option B, 'Standalone master'? Really? That's like calling a fire extinguisher a 'standalone oven' - makes no sense at all!

I hope the right answer isn't 'Standalone master'. That would just defeat the whole purpose of an HA setup!

You're right, selecting 'Standalone master' would defeat the purpose of an HA setup.

I agree with Pansy, because in active-passive HA setup, one device is active while the other is passive.

I'm a little lost on this one. Is option D, 'Load balancing master', a real thing for FortiAuthenticator HA? Seems a bit odd.

Hmm, I was thinking it was option C, 'Cluster member'. Isn't that what you'd select on the secondary device in an HA pair?

I'm pretty sure it's option A, 'Active-passive master'. That's the classic HA configuration for FortiAuthenticator, isn't it?

Always double check the HA configuration to avoid any issues during failover scenarios.
