Suggested answer: A, D

Explanation:

Based on the exhibit, the two correct actions regarding the replacement process are:

After replacing the FortiSwitch unit, the automatically created trunk name does not change. This is because the trunk name is based on the slot number and port number of the FortiGate unit that connects to the FortiSwitch unit, which remain the same after the replacement. If a different trunk name is desired, the trunk must be deleted and a new trunk will be created automatically with an updated name.

MCLAG-ICL will be automatically reconfigured once the new switch is connected to the FortiGate.

This is because the MCLAG-ICL configuration is stored on the FortiGate unit and applied to the FortiSwitch unit when it is authorized. The replacement FortiSwitch unit will inherit the MCLAG-ICL configuration of the failed FortiSwitch unit after it is replaced using the replace-device command in
