Why each option
To send system log messages to a remote syslog server using TCP for guaranteed delivery, the BIG-IP Administrator should configure Remote Logging settings.
syslog-ng is the underlying logging utility, but the administrator configures remote logging through the BIG-IP Configuration Utility or CLI, not by directly modifying syslog-ng configurations.
A Request Logging Profile is used to log HTTP request and response information, typically for a virtual server, not general BIG-IP system log messages.
HSL Logging (High Speed Logging) is a feature used by iRules or application-specific logging profiles to send application-specific log data, not for general BIG-IP system logs.
Remote Logging in BIG-IP allows the configuration of destinations for system log messages, including specifying a remote syslog server and the transport protocol, such as TCP, to ensure reliable delivery. This is the standard method for directing BIG-IP system logs off-device.
