Explanation

To implement disaster recovery for the primary Cisco FMC so that corporate policies remain available if the primary fails, High Availability (HA) must be configured between the primary and secondary FMC. In FMC HA, the secondary FMC continuously synchronizes configuration data - including access control policies, intrusion policies, and other corporate policies - from the primary. If the primary fails, the secondary automatically takes over with a complete, up-to-date copy of all policies. Option B is incomplete as written and describes a physical cabling requirement, not a DR strategy. Option C describes a network placement consideration, not a configuration step. Option D describes a reactive restore process - restoring after failure - which would result in greater downtime compared to an active HA setup.
