Sample Fortinet Certified Professional - FortiGate exam question
Answer this question the same way you would on exam day. No sign-up needed — one random question, three tries to swap it out.
At a headquarters site, a FortiGate receives a default route from ISP-A via eBGP and has a configured static default route toward ISP-B. If ISP-A's BGP peer remains up but its default prefix is withdrawn, the operator wants ISP-B to carry Internet traffic. Which routing design should be used to make the static route the last resort and avoid route-policy conflicts?

What Does a Certification Exam Score Report Actually Tell You? (And What It Never Will)
PMI gives you performance bands by domain. CompTIA gives you a scaled score and the objectives you missed. ISC2 gives you nothing at all. Here is how to read each one, and why the number you want is the one nobody gives you.
