Question 460
At Fairmont Biotechnology, the FortiGate 7.6 security administration team encounters the following authorized operational case: valid users fail authentication during a primary RADIUS server outage despite a configured secondary server. They need a defensible FortiOS configuration, diagnosis, validation or prevention decision. Which recurring review is most relevant to the same root risk?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Exercise identity-server failover under controlled conditions. This recurring practice addresses radius timeout and failover because a backup identity server is ineffective when its address, route or retry behavior is misconfigured. It reinforces the supported change to set suitable supported backup RADIUS server ordering and reachability/timeouts rather than relying on an unrelated periodic audit.
Incorrect Answers
Review FSSO filters when application groups change reduces recurrence of fsso group filter scope, rather than the observed radius timeout and failover issue. The relevant preventive control for Fairmont Biotechnology is: Exercise identity-server failover under controlled conditions. This distinction matters because a backup identity server is ineffective when its address, route or retry behavior is misconfigured.
Track identity infrastructure DNS and address changes reduces recurrence of fsso hostname and dns resolution, rather than the observed radius timeout and failover issue. The relevant preventive control for Fairmont Biotechnology is: Exercise identity-server failover under controlled conditions. This distinction matters because a backup identity server is ineffective when its address, route or retry behavior is misconfigured.
Verify route and policy direction together during deployment reduces recurrence of incoming versus outgoing interface selection, rather than the observed radius timeout and failover issue. The relevant preventive control for Fairmont Biotechnology is: Exercise identity-server failover under controlled conditions. This distinction matters because a backup identity server is ineffective when its address, route or retry behavior is misconfigured.
