To get details on network connections, you would need a agent-based discovery. AWS documentation does mention it. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/application-discovery/latest/userguide/what-is-appdiscovery.html

Option A is correct AWS Application Discovery Service is a free service that allows you to discover and catalog your resources in the cloud. By deploying the data collection agent to each virtual machine, you can collect metrics such as CPU, memory, disk utilization, network connections, and processes running on each instance. This approach provides a comprehensive inventory of your virtual machines, which is essential for accurate sizing of new Amazon EC2 instances. Option B is not cost effective

According to this link, VM utilization metrics are picked up by Agentless and not Agent-based. - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/application-discovery/latest/userguide/what-is-appdiscovery.html#Database%20Discovery . At the same time, network connections are pickedup by Agent-based and not Agentless. Was pretty confident about A, but now i see A doesn't suffice all criteria nor does C.

A is the right answer...you must use the agent to pick up on network connections and processes running on the VMs. Agentless will not read those details.
