What happens when FortiGate enters conserve mode? (Select two)

When FortiGate enters conserve mode, it is a response to resource limitations, and it alters its operational behavior to prioritize essential functions. One significant characteristic of this mode is that the device refuses to accept configuration changes. This restriction is crucial because allowing changes during a period of resource constraint could potentially destabilize the system further or lead to misconfigurations that affect its core functions.

Additionally, while in conserve mode, FortiGate also modifies how it processes traffic. In this state, it prioritizes basic packet transmission while potentially disabling certain inspection features. This ensures that critical network connectivity remains intact even under constrained conditions.

The option indicating that FortiGate continues to transmit packets, but only with specific limitations such as not performing IPS inspection, accurately reflects the operational adjustment that occurs in conserve mode. It illustrates how the device still functions to maintain network flow but does so with reduced capabilities, focusing on essential traffic rather than full-fledged security inspections.

The refusal to accept configuration changes and the limitation on packet inspection both highlight how FortiGate adapts to ensure operational continuity during periods of resource stress.
