Q: 2

Refer to the exhibits.

The exhibits show the VAP configuration. Wi-Fi SSIDs. and zone table. Which two statements describe how FortiGate handles VLAN assignment for wireless clients? (Choose two.)

Options

Correct Answer:

C, D

Explanation

FortiGate assigns VLANs to wireless clients based on a specific order of precedence. A VLAN configured in a FortiAP profile (applied to an AP group) overrides the VLAN settings on the VAP. Therefore, clients connecting to APs in the "Office" group are correctly assigned VLAN 102 as per this override mechanism.

For APs in a group without an override, like "Floor 1", the VAP configuration is used. The VAP is configured with a VLAN pool, which takes precedence over the static VLAN ID. For clients assigned a VLAN from this pool to obtain an IP address, the FortiGate must have corresponding VLAN interfaces configured with DHCP servers. As the exhibits do not show these necessary VLAN interfaces, clients will fail to receive an IP address.

Why Incorrect

A. The DHCP server on the VAP interface (10.0.3.0/24) is not used when a VLAN pool is active. Clients require a DHCP server on their assigned VLAN's L3 interface.

B. The zone's DHCP server is not used for tunneled clients assigned to specific VLANs. VLANs segment clients into different broadcast domains, requiring DHCP on their respective VLAN interfaces.

References

1. FortiGate Infrastructure 7.4 Study Guide, p. 301: "FortiGate assigns a VLAN to a wireless client based on the following order of precedence: 1. RADIUS server 2. FortiAP profile 3. VLAN pool 4. Static VLAN ID". This confirms that the AP group ("Office") override in option D takes precedence over the VLAN pool on the VAP.

2. FortiOS 7.4.0 Administration Guide, "WiFi & Switch Controller > FortiAP Profiles > SSIDs" section: "You can assign a VLAN ID to an SSID. All traffic from this SSID is then tagged with that VLAN ID. You must create a VLAN subinterface on the FortiGate and configure a DHCP server and security policies for that VLAN subinterface." This supports the reasoning for option C, where the absence of these required VLAN interfaces and DHCP servers leads to clients being unable to obtain an IP address.

3. FortiOS 7.4.0 Administration Guide, "SSID configuration" section: When a VLAN pool is configured on a VAP, it overrides the static VLAN ID setting. This confirms that for the "Floor 1" group, the VLAN pool would be used, not the static VLAN 101.
