For traffic that does not match any of the defined SD-WAN rules, the default implicit SD-WAN rule is applied. By default, the FortiGate uses a "source-destination IP-based" algorithm, which means all traffic from a specific source IP to a specific destination IP is sent through the same interface. This ensures that a consistent path is used for traffic between the same source and destination IP addresses. Options B, C, and D do not apply because the default algorithm does not prioritize by latency, session count, or source IP alone.

An SD-WAN zone can contain physical and logical interfaces

SD-WAN zones can include both physical and logical interfaces, allowing flexible configuration for different network types.

You can use an SD-WAN zone in static route definitions

SD-WAN zones can be referenced in static routes, enabling dynamic path selection based on SD-WAN rules.

An SD-WAN zone is a logical grouping of members

An SD-WAN zone is a logical grouping of interfaces (members), used to simplify the management and application of SD-WAN rules.

Based on the application sensor configuration and the filter details:

D. Apple FaceTime will be blocked, based on the Excessive-Bandwidth filter configuration: The "Excessive-Bandwidth" filter is set to block, which includes "FaceTime" under its application signature. As a result, FaceTime will be blocked regardless of the "Apple" filter configuration because the "Excessive-Bandwidth" filter takes precedence due to its block action setting.

The other options are not correct:

A. Apple FaceTime will be allowed, based on the Video/Audio category configuration: The Video/Audio category is not relevant because FaceTime is specifically included in the Excessive-Bandwidth filter, which blocks it.

B. Apple FaceTime will be allowed, based on the Apple filter configuration: Although the Apple filter is set to monitor, the block action of the Excessive-Bandwidth filter will override this.

C. Apple FaceTime will be allowed only if the Apple filter in Application and Filter Overrides is set to Allow: The allow setting for the Apple filter is irrelevant in this context, as the block action in the Excessive-Bandwidth filter will prevail.

The SSL VPN http-request-header-timeout timer is used to mitigate denial of service (DoS) attacks by limiting the amount of time the FortiGate waits for the client to send an HTTP request header after a connection is established. This helps reduce the attack surface by preventing potential attacks that exploit prolonged connection times without fully completing requests.
