This course is a direct, scenario-driven walkthrough of every objective area published for Fortinet's FCP - FortiGate 7.6 Administrator (FCP_FGT_AD-7.6) exam, the credential that counts toward the Fortinet Certified Professional (FCP) in Network Security track. Instructor Aseem Mankotia breaks down FortiGate deployment modes, firewall policy construction, central vs per-policy NAT, IP pools and VIPs, LDAP/RADIUS authentication, FSSO, the full security-profile stack (antivirus, web and DNS filtering, application control, IPS, file filtering, flow vs proxy inspection, SSL deep inspection), static and policy routing, SD-WAN rules and performance SLAs, IPsec site-to-site and dial-up VPN, ZTNA, the Security Fabric, and FortiGuard/logging/diagnostics — using the exact reasoning style the exam applies to configuration scenarios.
Every chapter maps to a specific exam objective area, calls out heavily tested concepts versus lightly tested ones, and flags the exact traps candidates fall into on real exam attempts — including the critical FortiOS 7.6 change where SSL-VPN tunnel and web modes are deprecated or removed on many platforms in favor of IPsec dial-up and ZTNA. You'll work through configuration-reasoning practice questions styled after the real exam (not rote definitions), plus flashcard-ready facts on service limits, timers, and default behaviors that FortiOS candidates consistently misremember.
The course closes with a full exam simulation chapter covering all domains and a 65-minute time-management plan so you walk into the Pearson VUE testing center knowing exactly how to pace roughly 32 questions. This is a read-and-understand, GUI-and-CLI-aware course requiring no paid lab equipment. Exam format, fees (approximately USD 400), and scoring are described as currently understood — always confirm the current exam description, question count, format, and fees on Fortinet's official FCP_FGT_AD-7.6 exam page before scheduling.
