Refer to the exhibit. An administrator added a FortiGate device to FortiManager with the default object settings at the ADOM layer. What can you conclude from the import policy package process of the HQ-NGFW- 1 device?

The exhibit displays the "Import Policy Package" wizard in FortiManager. During this process, FortiManager analyzes the FortiGate's configuration, including interfaces used in policies. If these interfaces do not already exist as objects in the ADOM's database, the wizard prompts the administrator to map them. The "Mapping" column set to "Create New" and the "Type" column set to "Normalized Interface" for lan, port4, and port6 indicate that FortiManager is proposing to automatically create these three interfaces as new normalized interface objects at the ADOM level. This allows for the creation of reusable policies within the ADOM.

A. Per Platform mapping is used to map a single normalized interface to different physical ports on different FortiGate models; it is not required to detect interfaces.

B. The wizard automates the creation of the interface objects, as shown by the "Create New" option. Manual creation prior to import is not required to avoid errors.

D. This is a general statement about configuration management. The exhibit specifically illustrates the interface mapping step, not the consequences of an incomplete object import.

"Importing a policy package".

The guide states: "When you import a policy package

you can also import the interface mappings

which creates normalized interfaces in the ADOM... In the Interface Mapping section

map the device interfaces to the normalized interfaces. You can create new normalized interfaces

or map to existing normalized interfaces." This directly supports the action shown in the exhibit.

"Import Policy Package dialog box" table.

This table defines the "Mapping" option: "Create New: Create a new normalized interface." This confirms the conclusion that FortiManager will create the interfaces as new objects.

"Per-platform mapping".

The documentation explains: "You can use per-platform mapping to map a normalized interface to a different physical interface for a specific platform." This clarifies that option A is an incorrect interpretation of the feature's purpose.
