Selected Answer: A
To collect all of the required mappings, the User-ID agent must connect to all servers that your users log in to in order to monitor the security log files on all servers that contain login events. Auto-discovery locates domain controllers in the local domain only; you must manually add Exchange servers, eDirectory servers, and syslog senders. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/10-1/pan-os-admin/user-id/map-ip-addresses-to-users/configure-user-mapping-using-the-windows-user-id-agent/configure-the-windows-based-user-id-agent-for-user-mapping

A because auto-discovery does not work with Exchange servers. It would be C if there were only Active Directory DCs.
