Suggested Answer: A,C Vote an answer

The RPF (Reverse Path Forwarding) check is used to prevent IP spoofing attacks by verifying that the source IP address of a received packet is reachable through the same interface it arrived on. If not, the packet is dropped, ensuring traffic legitimacy.
The RPF check runs on the first sent packet of any new session to validate that the route to the source IP is consistent with the interface it's received on. This helps FortiGate detect spoofed or asymmetric routing scenarios early in the session establishment.
