In FortiManager, when a global policy package is assigned to an Administrative Domain (ADOM), that assignment applies to the entire ADOM. Consequently, all existing policy packages within that ADOM, as well as any new policy packages created subsequently, will automatically have the global policy package assigned to them. This mechanism ensures that global security rules are consistently applied across all policy sets managed within that specific ADOM without requiring manual intervention for each new package.

A. You must assign the global policy package from the global ADOM.

This is incorrect. The assignment is made to the ADOM, and the new package inherits it automatically, eliminating the need for a separate manual assignment.

C. You must reapply the global policy package to ADOM1.

This is incorrect. Creating a new policy package within an ADOM does not affect the existing ADOM-level assignment of the global policy package.

D. You can select the option to assign the global policies.

This is incorrect. The assignment is automatic for any new policy package created in an ADOM that already has a global policy package assigned; it is not an optional step during package creation.

Section: "Global policy and objects > Assigning a global policy package to an ADOM".

The documentation states: "When you assign a global policy package to an ADOM

the global policy package is automatically assigned to all policy packages in the ADOM. When you create a new policy package in the ADOM

the global policy package is automatically assigned to the new policy package." This directly supports the correct answer.
