Fortinet FCSS_LED_AR-7.6 Dumps Questions Answers

From the exhibit, LDAP on FortiGate is correctly configured and tested:

diagnose test authserver ldap FAC-LDAP wifi101 password

authenticate 'wifi101' against 'FAC-LDAP' succeeded!

Group membership(s) - CN=Domain Users,...

So:

LDAP connectivity works

Bind DN, DN, CNID, and credentials are correct(so optionCis eliminated).

Firewall policies do not affect the802.1X / Wi-Fi authentication stepitself, soAis not the root cause.

Nothing in the scenario indicates that AD is enforcing LDAPS-only; the LDAP test already succeeds using the configured parameters, soBis also excluded.

The Wi-Fi supplicant is configured forPEAP with inner authentication = MSCHAPv2.

MSCHAPv2 is achallenge–response mechanism designed for RADIUS, not for LDAP simple bind. FortiGate’s LDAP implementation uses asimple bind (username/password) over LDAP or LDAPS, and it doesnotimplement MSCHAPv2 against LDAP backends.

In Fortinet’s design, if you needPEAP-MSCHAPv2 with Active Directory, you must use:

ARADIUS server(such as Windows NPS or FortiAuthenticator), and

Have FortiGate use RADIUS,notLDAP, as the authentication backend for 802.1X / Wi-Fi users.

Because FortiGate cannot process MSCHAPv2 exchanges directly against an LDAP server, authentication fails when the inner method is MSCHAPv2, even though LDAP works when tested with a simple bind from the CLI.

From the exhibits:

Interface“APs”is a VLAN sub-interface onfortilinkwith IP10.10.100.254/24and a DHCP server scope 10.10.100.1–10.10.100.253.

This VLAN is assigned toport1on the managed FortiSwitch for FortiAPs.

The interface config showsonly allowaccess ping—Security Fabric Connection is not enabled.

In LAN Edge designs, FortiAPs connected through FortiSwitch are discovered and managed asLAN edge devices of the Security Fabric. FortiOS documentation states that FortiAPs and FortiSwitches appear in the Fabric topologyonly when connected on an interface with Security Fabric Connection enabled.

If the VLAN/AP management interface lacksSecurity Fabric Connection:

FortiGate does not treat that network as aFabric connection segment.

CAPWAP discovery from FortiAPs on that VLAN will not result in the AP being onboarded and shown for management.

Therefore the key misconfiguration is:

✔A – Security Fabric is disabled on the VLAN interface used for AP management.

Why the others are not the root cause:

B. Firmware incompatibility– would usually show as a “Managed (upgrade required)” or similar status after discovery, not complete non-detection. The scenario specifically points to a configuration issue, not firmware.

C. VLAN not tagged correctly on uplink– The FortiSwitch uplink to FortiGate is the FortiLink trunk, and the VLAN sub-interface APs is already bound to fortilink, so tagging on the uplink is correct by definition.

D. CAPWAP ports not open– CAPWAP (UDP 5246/5247) is terminated locally on FortiGate and does not depend on any firewall policy; these ports are open on the FortiGate itself by default.

A FortiGate interface can operate with different types of captive portal modes.

The available portal types that require user interaction or login include:

✔A. Terms Acknowledgment Without Authentication

Forces users to accept terms before accessing the network

No credentials required

Still considered a captive portalCommon in guest Wi-Fi.

✔E. Authentication

Requires username/password

Supports local users, RADIUS, LDAP, OAuth, etc.

Why the other options are incorrect

❌B. Email Notification Only

Not a valid captive portal mode on FortiGate.

❌C. Disclaimer + Authentication

This is not a selectable mode; disclaimers are part of the captive portal customization but not a standalone option.

❌D. Guest Pass Access

Guest pass authentication exists onFortiAuthenticator, not as a direct portal type on FortiGate.
