Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, D

The neighbor-group command in FortiOS allows for the application of common settings to a group of neighbors in OSPF, and can also be used to simplify configuration by applying common settings to both IBGP and EBGP neighbors. This grouping functionality is a part of the FortiOS CLI and is documented in the Fortinet CLI reference.

Yes, I also believe that statement C is true since the neighbor-group command can be combined with the neighbor-range parameter to configure multiple neighbors within a specific range.

That's a good point, King. I think the correct statements are B and C.

I agree! And I believe statement D is false because the neighbor-group command is mainly used in OSPF and not in BGP.

I think statement B is correct because neighbor-group command is used to apply settings to multiple OSPF neighbors in the same area.

I think the second option about applying common settings in an OSPF area makes the most sense to me. That sounds like a reasonable use case for a neighbor-group command.

I'm with you guys. Those two options sound the most convincing. Now let's just hope the actual exam isn't full of these obscure networking commands!

Ooh, good catch! And the fourth option about applying it to both IBGP and EBGP also sounds plausible. Gotta love when they throw in a BGP curveball.

Haha, yeah, the BGP part definitely caught me off guard too. Alright, let's go with the second and fourth options. Seems like the best bet for this tricky question.
