Cascade Interfaces Behavior: When all SD-WAN members are dead, FortiGate: ✅ Shuts down the alert interface (port5) to force traffic rerouting (e.g., to a 5G backup). ❌ Does not just send alerts (Option B is incorrect). When at least one member is alive, FortiGate: Brings port5 back up. Be careful, all of the members in the borth of the health checks should go down to bring the port5 down. Level3_DNS (1,2).
