Fortinet Certified Professional Public Cloud Security FCP_ZCS_AD-7.4 Question # 3 Topic 1 Discussion

The debug output shows that the UbuntuServer address object successfully resolved an IP, while the webServer did not. The most likely cause is a mismatch in the dynamic address filter or missing tags on the target VM.

Verify the filter used for the dynamic firewall address – The filter category=windows may not match any VM metadata, resulting in no matched addresses.

Verify the tags on the target VM – Ensure that the VM has the correct tags (e.g., category=windows) that match the dynamic address filter to enable resolution.
