Blueprint source: Fortinet Training Institute course page (course objectives) ↗

Independent study aid built from the public exam blueprint. Not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by fortinet. Objectives are transcribed and mapped by hand, so this page may contain mistakes or may have fallen behind the vendor's current material: exam objectives, versions, numbering and availability all change without notice. Treat fortinet's own certification portal as the source of truth and verify against it before you book anything.

These objectives come from Fortinet's course page for this product, not from an exam blueprint: Fortinet has not published one for this exam yet. The material is what the course teaches, and an exam blueprint may organise or weight it differently.
