Fortinet Exam FCP_FGT_AD-7.4 Topic 2 Question 14 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's FCP_FGT_AD-7.4 exam
Question #: 14
Topic #: 2
[All FCP_FGT_AD-7.4 Questions]

A network administrator has enabled full SSL inspection and web filtering on FortiGate. When visiting any HTTPS websites, the browser reports certificate warning errors. When visiting HTTP websites, the browser does not report errors.

What is the reason for the certificate warning errors?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

When full SSL inspection is enabled, FortiGate intercepts HTTPS traffic, decrypts it for inspection, and re-encrypts it using its own SSL certificate before forwarding it to the browser. If the browser does not trust the SSL certificate being used by FortiGate for re-encryption, it will display certificate warning errors. To resolve this, the certificate used by FortiGate for SSL inspection must be installed and trusted in the browser's certificate store.

Option C is the way to go. The certificate must be missing the required extensions for the browser to trust it.

I think the matching firewall policy being set to proxy inspection mode could also be a factor in causing the certificate warning errors.

I believe it could also be because the certificate used by FortiGate for SSL inspection does not contain the required certificate extensions.

I agree with Kathrine. The browser may not recognize the certificate, causing the warning errors.

Haha, looks like FortiGate is playing a little SSL trick on us. Better hope the IT team knows what they're doing!

The certificate warning errors are definitely due to the browser not trusting the certificate used by FortiGate. That's the most logical explanation here.
