Why each option
FortiGate units support various logging options, including sending logs to a standard Syslog server or to a dedicated FortiAnalyzer appliance for centralized log management and analysis.
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is an authentication and directory service protocol, not a supported destination or protocol for sending FortiGate logs.
FortiGate devices can be configured to send logs to any standard Syslog server, allowing for flexible integration with existing log management and SIEM systems.
FortiAnalyzer is Fortinet's proprietary centralized logging and reporting appliance, specifically optimized to collect, store, and analyze logs from FortiGate devices for comprehensive security event management.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for monitoring network devices by polling data, but it is not a protocol or destination for sending detailed event logs from a FortiGate.
