Selected: B
B is correct.
Auto-discovery is the correct answer because it is the specific FortiSwitch feature designed for initial automatic detection by a FortiGate, as detailed in the provided slides. This process involves the switch broadcasting FortiLink discovery frames containing its serial number and model, which allows the FortiGate to recognize and list it for management.
Zero-touch deployment (A) refers to a broader provisioning methodology, not the underlying detection mechanism. While LLDP (C) is a generic layer-2 discovery protocol, FortiLink auto-discovery is the proprietary Fortinet method used for this integration. FortiLink heartbeat (D) is responsible for maintaining the management connection after the switch is authorized, not for the initial detection phase. Therefore, auto-discovery is the fundamental feature that enables the automatic detection process during deployment.
