It is a best practice to upload FortiAnalyzer local logs to a remote server. Which three remote servers are supported for the upload? (Choose three.)

• AFTP
• BSFTP
• CSCP
• DUDP
• ETCP

• D

• E

Explanation

FortiAnalyzer supports FTP (A), SFTP (B), and SCP (C) as remote server protocols for uploading local logs, because these are established file transfer protocols that can receive and store log files on a remote host. UDP (D) and TCP (E) are rejected because they are transport-layer protocols, not file transfer protocols - they define how data is transmitted, not where or how files are stored, so FortiAnalyzer cannot use them directly as log upload destinations. Think of it this way: FTP, SFTP, and SCP all have the word "transfer" or "copy" in their names - they are designed to move files, which is exactly what log uploading requires.

Memory tip: Use the phrase "File Servers Copy" - FTP, SFTP, SCP - to remember the three supported protocols. If the option sounds like a raw network protocol (UDP, TCP) rather than a file transfer mechanism, it's a distractor.
