Fortinet Exam NSE7_LED-7.0 Topic 1 Question 22 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's NSE7_LED-7.0 exam

Question #: 22
Topic #: 1

Refer to the exhibit.

Wireless guest users are unable to authenticate because they are getting a certificate error while loading the captive portal login page. This URL string is the HTTPS POST URL guest wireless users see when attempting to access the network using the web browser

Which two settings are the likely causes of the issue? (Choose two.)

AThe external server FQDN is incorrect

BThe wireless user's browser is missing a CA certificate

CThe FortiGate authentication interface address is using HTTPS

DThe user address is not in DDNS form

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B

According to the exhibit, the wireless guest users are getting a certificate error while loading the captive portal login page. This means that the browser cannot verify the identity of the server that is hosting the login page. Therefore, option A is true because the external server FQDN is incorrect, which means that it does not match the common name or subject alternative name of the server certificate. Option B is also true because the wireless user's browser is missing a CA certificate, which means that it does not have the root or intermediate certificate that issued the server certificate. Option C is false because the FortiGate authentication interface address is using HTTPS, which is a secure protocol that encrypts the communication between the browser and the server. Option D is false because the user address is not in DDNS form, which is not related to the certificate error.

The FortiGate authentication interface using HTTPS is probably the culprit. It's like they're making it harder for users to connect just for the fun of it.

Haha, I bet the IT team forgot to send the CA cert to the users' browsers. Classic IT move, always forgetting the basics!

Yeah, that could be the issue. The IT team should check that.

Maybe the browser just needs the CA certificate installed.

The FortiGate authentication interface address using HTTPS could also be a factor. It needs to match the certificate.

Maybe the external server FQDN is incorrect too. That could be causing the certificate error.

Yeah, that's a common mistake. CA cert needs to be installed on the user's browser.

Yes, I think both of those settings could be causing the certificate error.

I agree, the external server FQDN and the user address are not likely the causes here. It's probably the SSL/TLS configuration that's causing the certificate error.
