Remote access VPN lets individual users, not whole sites, connect securely from anywhere. On FortiOS 7.6 the recommended approach shifted notably, and the exam (and real deployments) expect you to understand both the FortiClient IPsec method and the significant SSL VPN changes introduced in later 7.6 builds. Note that whether remote access VPN is on your exam version can vary, so confirm the current exam description.
