Out of the box DHCP enabled which models

Hi Guys,

 

I did not passed for the NSE 400 exam last week ( 63% :( ). One of the Q's was as follows: Which model's supports built-IN enabled DHCP while installing the Fortigate for the first time.

 

I cannot find any documentation and/or list which describes this.

 

Could someone know which model's does?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi

 

I do not point to internal lan or whatever...I never had a FGT device which was not reachable over192.168.1.99 by activated DHCP. If it is a bigger device mgmt. interface is use and on smaller ones internal or lan etc.

 

From this point of view whatever interface is used for 192.168.1.99 it is always a dhcp enabled on this interface.

 

Makes for me absolutly sense.

 

hope this helps

 

have fun

Hi

 

I can not say to 1000% for the bigger devices like 3600 but as I know every FGT has on the internal, lan or mgmt. port enabled DHCP server 192.168.1.99. I never saw such a question but I'm 99% sure every FGT has enabled DHCP.

 

Hope this helps

 

Have fun

I'm not sure, but I think that the boxes with dedicated MGMT interfaces doesn't have DHCP on the internal interfaces.

The 500D onlt got DHCP on the Managment-interfaces from fabric, not on the internal interfaces.
