What type of information is included in configuration backups for FortiAnalyzer?

When performing configuration backups for FortiAnalyzer, the backup includes system information and the device list. This encompasses critical details about the FortiAnalyzer system, such as its settings, networking configuration, user accounts, and any linked devices. Such information is essential for restoring the device to its operational state in case of a failure or for migration purposes.

The device list part of the backup is particularly important because it helps maintain a record of all Fortinet devices that the FortiAnalyzer is managing or communicating with. This ensures that all relevant connections and configurations are preserved. Thus, a backup that includes this type of information allows for efficient recovery and management of the system after unplanned incidents.

Other choices may reference specific elements that are not included in the configuration backups as defined for FortiAnalyzer. For example, device logs and reports relate to stored data and operational performance metrics rather than backup configurations. Backup of firewall rules pertains directly to the configurations of specific devices like FortiGate, which is outside the scope of what is included in FortiAnalyzer's configuration backups. Configuration scripts and commands may reflect operational procedures or scripts on individual Fortinet devices but do not encompass the comprehensive configuration aspects saved by FortiAnalyzer backups.
