Explanation

When configuring a centralized spam quarantine on Cisco SMA, three steps are required on each ESA: (1) enable the centralized spam quarantine on the SMA, (2) configure the external spam quarantine settings on each ESA pointing to the SMA, and (3) disable the local spam quarantine on each ESA. If the local spam quarantine remains enabled on the ESA devices, the ESA will continue routing messages to the local quarantine because it takes precedence. Disabling the local quarantine (Choice C) forces the ESA to redirect quarantined messages to the configured external (centralized) quarantine on the SMA. Choice A is incorrect because mail policies reference the quarantine by name, not by location. Choice B is incorrect because you should disable the local quarantine, not the external quarantine configuration. Choice D is an incomplete option and addresses a secondary configuration concern.
