Refer to the exhibit, which shows partial outputs from two routing debug commands. Which change must an administrator make on FortiGate to route web traffic from internal users to the internet, using ECMP?
A.
Set the priority of the static default route using port1 to 10.
B.
Set the priority of the static default route using port2 to 1.
Correct answer is A. ECMP pre-requisite is "routes must have the same destination and costs. In the case of static routes, costs include distance and priority". In this case traffic is routed through port 1 because of the lower priority. If we raise priority on port 1 to the value of 10 the traffic should be routed through both ports 1 and 2.
By the 'get router info kernel' output, it's possible to note that route via port1 has prio=0 and route via port2 prio=10. This way, to use ECMP, both priority must have the same value - https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Note-Routing-behavior-depending-on-distance-and/ta-p/198221

I believe answer B is correct too in this case.
Default priority value is 1 for static routes.
Output from device:
priority Enter an integer value from <1> to <65535> (default = <1>).
Note that defining no priority in route 1 will set a default value of 0.
