Your company is told that it must follow strict requirements for auditing purposes when creating user accounts for each department. Which feature in clustered Data ONTAP accomplishes this task?

LDAP integration is for authenticating users against an external directory service, not for controlling or auditing the administrative creation of user accounts within Data ONTAP itself.

Workgroup access refers to a simplified peer-to-peer networking model, not a security feature for auditing administrative actions in a storage system.

Role-based access control (RBAC) allows administrators to assign specific privileges to users or groups, ensuring that only authorized personnel can perform certain actions, such as creating user accounts. This mechanism inherently supports auditing by tracking who performed which administrative task, aligning with strict auditing requirements.

Mixed-mode security typically refers to a system's ability to support both local and external authentication mechanisms simultaneously, not specifically for auditing administrative account creation.
