Explanation

In Maximo Application Suite, LDAP synchronization is a system-level identity management function, configured through System Configuration in the MAS administration console - this is where administrators define directory connections, sync schedules, and user mapping settings centrally. Option A is wrong because application.properties is a developer/deployment-level file used during setup, not an admin interface for ongoing LDAP management. Option B is wrong because the Security Groups module handles permission assignments after users are synced - it doesn't control the sync itself. Option D is wrong because the Integration menu governs data exchange frameworks (like REST/SOAP endpoints for business data), which is unrelated to directory synchronization.

Memory tip: Think "System Config = Sync" - LDAP is a system-wide identity concern, so it lives at the system level, not inside an application module or integration tool.
