* Understanding FortiAnalyzer Fabric Deployment:
* FortiAnalyzer Fabric deployment involves a hierarchical structure where the Fabric root (supervisor) coordinates with multiple Fabric members (collectors and analyzers).
* This setup ensures centralized log collection, analysis, and incident response across geographically distributed locations.
* Analyzing the Exhibit:
* FAZ1-Supervisoris located at AMER HQ and acts as the Fabric root.
* FAZ2-Analyzeris a Fabric member located in EMEA.
* FAZ3-CollectorandFAZ4-Collectorare Fabric members located in EMEA and APAC, respectively.
* Evaluating the Options:
* Option A:The statement indicates that the AMER HQ SOC team cannot run automation playbooks from the Fabric supervisor. This is true because automation playbooks and certain orchestration tasks typically require local execution capabilities which may not be fully supported on the supervisor node.
* Option B:High availability (HA) configuration for the supervisor node is a best practice for redundancy but is not directly inferred from the given architecture.
* Option C:The EMEA SOC team having access to historical logs only is not correct since FAZ2-Analyzer provides full analysis capabilities.
* Option D:The APAC SOC team has access to FortiView and other reporting functions through FAZ4-Collector, but this is not explicitly detailed in the provided architecture.
* Conclusion:
* The most accurate observation about this FortiAnalyzer Fabric deployment architecture is that the AMER HQ SOC team cannot run automation playbooks from the Fabric supervisor.
