What are the management ports used for in FortiAnalyzer?

The management ports on FortiAnalyzer serve the primary purpose of enabling remote management of the device. These ports facilitate secure administrative access, allowing system administrators to configure settings, monitor logs, and perform various management tasks from different locations. By using dedicated management ports, FortiAnalyzer can ensure a streamlined and secure method for managing the analyzer without exposing other functionalities or data paths, which could be vulnerable to unauthorized access.

While the other options describe functionalities that may be related to network or security management, they do not align specifically with the primary role of the management ports in FortiAnalyzer. For instance, external databases are typically connected using other interfaces designed for data integration rather than management access. Similarly, providing secure document access falls outside the primary management responsibilities of the FortiAnalyzer. Lastly, configuring User Access Levels, while an important task for ensuring proper user permissions, is conducted within the management interface rather than through management ports specifically.
