Fortinet FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 - FCP-FortiClient EMS 7.2 Administrator

Observation of Web Filter Exclusions:

The exhibit shows a web filter exclusion for "*.facebook.com" with the action set to "Allow."

Evaluating Actions:

This configuration means that FortiClient will allow access to Facebook and its subdomains.

Conclusion:

When users try to access "www.facebook.com ," FortiClient will allow the access based on the web filter exclusion settings.

FortiClient web filter configuration and exclusion documentation from the study guides.

Observation of Exhibits:

The exhibits show the Zero Trust Tag Monitor on FortiClient EMS and the FortiClient GUI status.

Remote-Client is tagged as "Remote-Endpoints" on the FortiClient EMS Zero Trust Tag Monitor.

Enabling Tag Visibility:

To show the tag on the FortiClient GUI, the endpoint alerts configuration must be adjusted to enable tag visibility.

Verification:

The correct action is to change the endpoint alerts configuration to enable tag visibility, ensuring that the tag appears in the FortiClient GUI.

The deployment service error message may be caused by any of the following. Try eliminating them all, one at a time.

1. Wrong username or password in the EMS profile

2. Endpoint is unreachable over the network

3. Task Scheduler service is not running

4. Remote Registry service is not running

5. Windows firewall is blocking connection

When FortiClient is installed on a Windows Server, the default behavior for real-time protection control is:

Real-time protection is disabled:By default, FortiClient does not enable real-time protection on server installations to avoid potential performance impacts and because servers typically have different security requirements compared to client endpoints.

Thus, real-time protection is disabled by default on Windows Server installations.

Fortinet Documentation on FortiClient Default Settings for Server Installations

FortiClient EMS is designed to provide centralized management and control of multiple endpoints running FortiClient software. It serves as a central management server that allows administrators to efficiently manage and configure a large number of FortiClient installations across the network.

Based on the CLI output from FortiGate:

The configuration shows the use of "type fortiems," indicating that FortiGate is set up to interact with FortiClient EMS.

The "server" field points to an IP address (10.0.1.200), which is typically the address of the FortiClient EMS server.

The configuration includes an SSL-enabled connection, which is a common setup for secure communication between FortiGate and FortiClient EMS.

Thus, the configuration indicates that FortiGate is set up to pull user groups from FortiClient EMS.
