Explanation

Integrating PowerFlex with LDAP requires two concrete technical steps: configuring the LDAP server connection details in the PowerFlex GUI (A) - supplying the server address, port, bind credentials, and base DN - and then testing the LDAP integration to verify authentication works (C), ensuring users can actually authenticate before relying on it in production. These two steps form the complete, minimal workflow for enabling LDAP authentication in PowerFlex.

B is wrong because RBAC role/permission definitions are a separate concern from LDAP integration itself; you can configure RBAC independently of whether LDAP is enabled, and it's not a required step in the LDAP setup flow. D is wrong because MFA is an additional security layer that is neither part of LDAP integration nor required by the question's goal - enabling it for all users is a broader policy decision, not an LDAP-specific step.

Memory tip: Think of LDAP integration as a two-act play - "Configure, then Confirm" (A → C). You plug in the server details, then prove it works. Anything beyond that (roles, MFA) is out of scope for the integration task itself.
