It's very confusing that the drawing has a ha-link in it (and no port numbers). But the CLI shows ip addresses and a unicast heartbeat. This is an indication that we are looking at a unicast-hb-setup in an active passive cluster. And therefore, they must be on the same network and have static ips assigned,

All answers can be correct to an extent, I would choose D because the virtual mac address is always asigned to the primary. C states they are on the same network, but they are not because there is no connection bridging the switches.

Selected Answer: D
D is correct because both members in the HA a-p cluster share a virtual MAC for each service port. C is incorrect because only the peer IP should be statically added in unicast mode. The local interface IP can be added by a DHCP server. The documentation says "The heartbeat interfaces must be connected to the same network and the IP addresses must be added to these interfaces". It does not say how - statically or by a DHCP server.

I have to correct myself. C is the correct answer. The diagram shows that port 3 is directly connected, which means that there can be no DHCP server on this segment.

D is correct, C is wrong because the IP address can be obtained using DHCP even if the FGTs are running in HA A-P mode. https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-FortiGate-HA-and-dynamic-interface-support-DHCP/ta-p/193933

Selected Answer: C
It is C https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate-private-cloud/7.4.0/microsoft-hyper-v-administration-guide/397100/ha Unicast HA heartbeat interfaces must be connected to the same network and you must add IP addresses to these interfaces. The unicast method does not change the FortiGate-VM interface MAC addresses to virtual MAC addresses.
