Why each option
Creating a Desktop OS machine catalog with Machine Creation Services requires a master image as the source for cloned VMs and an account naming convention to generate Active Directory computer accounts.
A bootstrap file is a Provisioning Services concept used for PXE-booting target devices and has no role in Machine Creation Services.
MCS uses a snapshot of a master image VM as the golden image from which all catalog VMs are cloned. Without a master image snapshot, MCS has no source to replicate across the provisioned machines.
Target devices are a Provisioning Services term for machines that stream a vDisk; MCS provisions VMs directly from hypervisor snapshots and does not use target devices.
A remote access policy is a network/VPN policy concept unrelated to creating MCS machine catalogs in XenDesktop.
MCS automatically creates computer accounts in Active Directory for each provisioned VM, and an account naming convention (including a prefix and numbering scheme) is required so the wizard can generate unique, predictable account names.
