Why each option

DC agents in an FSSO DC are responsible for capturing user login and logoff events from domain controllers and forwarding this information to the collector agent.

ACaptures the login events and forward them to the collector agent.

DC agents capture both login and logoff events, not just login events.

BCaptures the user IP address and workstation name and forward that information to the

DC agents capture login/logoff events and associated user/IP information, forwarding it to the collector agent, not just IP and workstation name. Their primary role is event capturing, not just data forwarding without the full context.

CCaptures the login and logoff events and forward them to the collector agent.Correct

DC agents, part of the FortiGate Single Sign-On (FSSO) solution, are installed on domain controllers to capture both user login and logoff events, then forward these events to the FSSO collector agent for user authentication tracking.

DCaptures the login events and forward them to the FortiGate devices.

DC agents forward login events to the collector agent, not directly to FortiGate devices; the collector agent then communicates with the FortiGates.
