After reviewing this further, I think that B.) smart tunneling is the correct answer. Clientless Plug-ins would be appropriate if the Microsoft RDP wasn't blocked. CCNP Security SVPN 300-730 pg. 301

A smart tunnel is a connection between a TCP-based application and a private site, using a clientless (browser-based) SSL VPN session with the security appliance as the pathway, and the adaptive security appliance as a proxy server. You can identify applications to which you want to grant smart tunnel access, and specify the local path to each application. For applications running on Microsoft Windows, you can also require a match of the SHA-1 hash of the checksum as a condition for granting smart tunnel access. https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-knowledge-base/asa-ssl-vpn-smart-tunnel/ta-p/3120099

C is the correct answer. CCNP Security SVPN 300-730 pg. 301, Configuring Client/Server Plug-ins. Client/server plug-ins allow administrators to extend the applications supported by a client-less SSL VPN to include applications such as RDP, VNC, Telnet, and SSH.

To allow users to access an internal RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) server without running the Microsoft RDP client on client workstations, the appropriate VPN feature to implement is smart tunneling. Smart tunneling is a feature that enables the SSL VPN client to dynamically launch applications based on policies. In this case, it would allow users to access the RDP server without relying on the Microsoft RDP client being installed or running locally on their workstations. Smart tunneling provides a way to tunnel specific applications through the SSL VPN connection. Therefore, for the described scenario, the recommended VPN feature is smart tunneling.
