B.Apply a category to the VMs, and associate the category with the policy. Security policies are applied to categories (a logical grouping of VMs) and not to the VMs themselves. Therefore, it does not matter how many VMs are started up in a given category. Traffic associated with the VMs in a category is secured without administrative intervention, at any scale.

Selected Answer: B
All the entities in an application security policy are identified by the categories to which they belong and not by their IP address, VLAN, or other network attributes. After a VM is associated with a category and the category is specified in a security policy, traffic associated with the VM is monitored even if it migrates to another network or changes its IP address.
