Why each option
This question tests knowledge of the correct NetWare server console command to stop and remove a running NLM (NetWare Loadable Module) from memory.
STOP is not a valid NetWare server console command - there is no STOP verb in the NetWare console command set for controlling NLMs.
KILL is a Unix/Linux signal concept and does not exist as a NetWare console command for unloading NLMs.
NLMs do not accept a -EXIT flag in this console syntax - console-level unloading is always performed via the UNLOAD command, not by passing parameters to the NLM name.
UNLOAD is the proper NetWare server console command to terminate a running NLM and release its memory - executing UNLOAD NAMED.NLM stops the DNS service cleanly, which is the standard and only supported method for removing an NLM from a live NetWare server console.
NLMs do not accept a -UNLOAD flag from the server console - UNLOAD is a standalone console verb, not a runtime parameter passed to the NLM executable.
Concept tested: NetWare console UNLOAD command for stopping NLM modules
