How can an administrator apply external server credentials for logging into FortiAnalyzer?

An administrator can apply external server credentials for logging into FortiAnalyzer through the admin's account settings. This process typically involves configuring the FortiAnalyzer to integrate with external authentication servers, such as LDAP or RADIUS, which involves setting up the server's address, port, and required authentication methods within the account settings of FortiAnalyzer.

Integrating external credentials allows for centralized management of user accounts and provides additional security by leveraging existing directory services. Once these settings are properly configured, administrators can log in using their external server credentials, allowing for a streamlined authentication process without the need to manage separate accounts for FortiAnalyzer.

It's essential to manage the account settings accurately to ensure that connectivity with the external authentication servers is maintained and that users can access FortiAnalyzer using their existing credentials effectively.
